Spring wedding? Then you’ll definitely need to consider that all-important hen party this winter! Here are six of the best seasonal hen party deals, brought to you by UKGirlThing…
Supermodel makeover
We all tend to get that gloomy winter feeling with the winter causing us not to look our best – frizzy hair, weather-worn skin, and layers upon layers of heavy knitwear! What better time of year is there to give yourself an ultimate confidence boost with a supermodel makeover? Enjoy a personal consultation with a professional make-up artist, where you can opt for a glamorous new look or something more natural. You may choose to theme your experience – maybe a vintage style with retro hair and make-up, and even a fancy dress box?!
Afternoon tea
Winter also comes with a loosening of the belt – wearing all those layers allows us to indulge a little more! Why not consider a traditional afternoon tea experience. Think sandwiches, cakes and a whole array of sumptuous sweet and savoury treats. A standard session involves private dining in a classic, historical venue. Luxury packages offer a little more elegance and sophistication. Why not upgrade your afternoon to include champagne, to well and truly sparkle!
Dance experiences
No other hen party option offers so much variety as a dance experience! From the comfort of a warm, dry dance studio, you can really let loose. The ultimate selection presents everything from the cultural (Salsa and Bollywood), to the fabulous (Pop Divas and ‘Single Ladies’), to the downright crazy (‘Thriller’ and Glee). Guaranteed fun, these classes will have you jumping around, laughing, and cheering so much that you won’t want to leave. You can then take your new moves to the dance floor that evening, or even save the routine for the wedding itself! Whichever session you choose, don’t forget your cameras to capture those hilarious moments.
Adventure activities
A common misconception is that adventure activities can’t be enjoyed in the winter – all that bad weather putting a dampener on things. However, with specialised venues, it is possible to cater for all weather conditions. For many activities there is an indoor option, such as go-karting, paintballing or laser tag. Or maybe you’re the brave type, therefore a roll around in the mud and a few puddles will only add to the excitement! So there’s no excuse not to get those competitive juices flowing and get physical with an adventure-filled hen day!
Perfume making
For something more sombre, perfume making is perfect. Get creative by blending and mixing your own unique scent. A fun group activity, but you’ll learn something too – who says you can’t have an educational hen party? Not only do you get to take away some of your perfume to keep, all scents are also kept on record for you to purchase in the future! And what better time of the year to have the perfect perfume blend at great value than upcoming to Christmas?
Evening activities
Does all the wintery weather just make you want to hide inside? Who says that can’t be fun too? Why not enjoy the ultimate girls’ night in, with a variety of themes to choose from, it will be the best pyjama party ever! Battle it out with a Wii tournament or watch a girly classic movie. Some packages even include a delicious buffet with a personal host.
