As part of my Wedding line of posts, I'm happy to show you the
Hens night put together by four wonderful bridesmaids. Blogging is a great way to get inspiration and ideas for hosting your next event, I hope this helps!
I think surprises are great! Keeping the Bride to be out of it, & you
organise these fun events.
As we know brides have enough to do.
For this special occasion we decided to
start with High Tea, homemade, of course. High tea is a buffet of scones,
cream, cupcakes, plenty of tea and in this case a little sangria! We baked all
the amazing goods ourselves assigning each bridesmaid to a job. The buffet
table was an elaborate array of three tier platters filled with
mini sweets and
savoury goods, jars of lollies and nick nacks that we had collected over time
to complete the feel.
The table setting is an important part to a tea party... We completed it
with a tea cup (varied style for every table placement), a placemat (which was actually
just a piece of scrap booking paper) but it really completed the look, a doily
coaster (for the tea cup!), and to finish it unique place cards with everyone’s
names and a vintage pin up girl (ready to wear as lanyard for the rest of the
night!). *example above
This created the perfect eclectic vintage stay at home High Tea.
Next we travelled off to, "Hens love art". *picture above*
Staying true to a traditional hen’s night! The retro loft was filled with easels, 15
giggling Champaign drinking women and one buff man ready to be drawn. “Hen’s
love art” made the experience complete, with small prizes, fun music and dress
ups for the Hen.
And then it’s always nice it end the night with some bar hoping, and a boogie.
Happy planning!
