Great hen night themes - A quick guide
Cowgirls
It all starts with a hat but you can take the sexy cowgirl theme as far as you like. Chaps, whips, even the lumberjack shirt. Think Daisy Duke then bring in the horse thing…You can go for pink or glittery hats and water pistols. Darn sexy! Go to www.partybox.co.uk where cowgirl hats start at just £2.87. Most high street stores, including New Look, Claire’s and Top Shop also stock hats. Yeeee-haaaa!
Hawaiian
Tropical fruit, very loud shirts, lei, grass skirts, coloured stilettos, long curly hair with a flower in it and coral bracelets. You can shout sexiness with a Honolulu style hen night. Drink fruity cocktails all night and sway those hips in time to a calypso number. Or you could get completely sloshed on lager and lose your accessories (including the inflatable palm tree) on the dance floor. At www.justforfun.co.uk prices start at just 99p.
LBD
Ladeez, it's time to get dressed up. We’re talking bling. Do something different for your hen night, and go all Hollywood. The limo, the little black dress, the heels, cocktails, updos, exclusive clubs and cocktail bars. Your group can mix with the in-crowd before letting your hair down at the hottest night spots in town. A great one for the single ones in your hen party, too. Do we really need to tell you where to buy the best frocks?
Top hats
We’re talking deely boppers, witches hats, policemen’s helmets, chefs’ hats, tiaras… the list is endless. The more daring/ silly/innovative the better – why not give your party a brief to design their own hat, and ask your chief bridesmaid to do yours for you. You just know that it’s going to involve a veil and condoms somewhere along the line, don’t you? www.sillyjokes.co.uk have a great selection of headwear for you to choose from.
Fairies
Where to start with this one? Tutus, wands, wings, halos, glitter and teeny weeny tiaras. Everybody loves to meet a fairy on a night out, so you could bring a special kind of magic to your chosen destination. Fairies can only drink spirits, so no knocking back the beer on your night! Find the best fairy dressing up kits and gorgeous wings at www.partydomain.co.uk You’ll also need a pot of fairy dust.
French maid
Ooo-la-LA! Drive the men that you meet wild with your tickle aprons and starch-stiff uniforms. You’ll need a tray, shiny black heels, suspenders and fishnets and the push-me-up bra. It’s verging on tarty, but it’s only a bit of fun. Dish up more than a chocolate croissant on your hen night. Try www.chickenshop.co.uk for the best of the French maid gear. Just be careful when you do a search for ideas on Google. You have been warned!
Pink ladies
The Grease revival continues apace in towns and cities up and down the country. For this look you’ll need a pink cropped T-shirt, black pedal pushers, a spangly pink jacket, black sunglasses, a high ponytail and girly make-up.
Summer lovin' could be coming to a town near you. For the full Olivia Newton John look and more, especially TV, film and retro clothing, go to www.partypants.co.uk
Theme t-shirts
Have what ever you like written or depicted on your hen party t-shirts. The best we’ve seen come from www.t-shirtsonline.net where you can choose from a printed t-shirt of you or a full list of hen night dares.
Sometimes simply your name and bride to be - or Bride 2 B - (or the titles of the other hens) is enough. Other ideas include 'Angela's angels, Fiona's fairies' or 'Helen's hens'. Just make them fun, bright and unique.
