A Few Themed Hen Party Ideas

Hen parties are usually celebrations that are thrown for a bride to be before the big day. The main organizer is usually the maid of honor but it’s also common for the bride’s closest friends to make arrangements too. It is meant to be a symbolic last hoorah for the woman and her friends before her duties as a wife begin. It is important for her friends to give her a special and fun evening. And they’ll be sure to choose a perfect theme after considering a few hen party ideas.

Though the party will most likely be attended by a large group of women, make sure that it is tailored to the bride to be’s personality. For example, don’t throw her a cowgirl themed bash if you know that’s not her cup of tea. The bride is most likely a sister or close friend you’ve known for years so you’ll know the best theme to choose for her.

One loved and simple idea is a beach party theme. The location can be colorfully decorated with tiki lanterns and inflatable parrots. Cold beverages with bamboo umbrellas in them can be sipped while you and the gals enjoy yourselves with a mix of island music softly playing on a stereo.

You could also throw a disco themed hen party. Inform the guests to show up wearing groovy costumes or provide them and encourage everyone to pick out a few things. For entertainment everyone could watch an old 70s movie or listen to disco music and have a dance party.

If the future bride is the outdoorsy type, a camp out party may be appropriate. If the weather permits, have everyone gather for a backyard barbecue and camp out. If it can’t be done outside, set up a few small tents in your living room and dim the lights. For food, you could cook smores over the fire (or stove) and to entertain each other tell spooky stories around the campfire.

A quick and easy hen party theme is one based on the future bride’s favorite color. For example, if her favorite color is green coordinate the party accordingly. Decorate the venue with green streamers and balloons. Purchase green paper plates, napkins, and other utensils. You could even go so far as to only serve green food like grapes and kiwi slices.

Lastly, most future bride’s just want a fun filled evening with their best friends. The hen party’s theme and entertainment are merely icing of the cake. Make sure her night is a special one by coming up with a personalized party that she will be sure to cherish.
