It is important to plan the day, night or weekend well in advance. This will ensure that all of your guests are available and will give you enough time to create an unforgettable hens!
#2 Talk to your Bride to be
Many brides enjoy taking part in the hens night preparations so chat to your bride to confirm which parts (if any) she wants to look after herself. It’s nice to have a couple of surprises too!

#3 Compose the guest list
Hens night etiquette regarding who to invite is a grey area. Should the future mother-in-law be invited? Should the bride ask her childhood friends? It’s her party, so she should feel free to ask everyone she knows or just a small number of close friends. Many brides opt for two separate celebrations – one for family and one for friends, to ensure that everyone is catered for.

Once you choose your date, try to stick to it!

#5 Determine the budget
Remember to include transport, accommodation, meals and day-time activities as well as night-time fun and frolics. The average outlay for a hens night in Australia is $180 plus per person, one day-time activity, one evening meal with drinks, the show and a nightclub.
#6 Source good quality accommodation
Depending on numbers and the time of year, it can be difficult to find good value accommodation. The self-catering option is really popular with hens, as you have space to play hens party games before a night on the town. Also, you are not constrained to early bird breakfasts!
#7 Plan unique day-time activities
Come up with something other than a drinking all afternoon. Think of all the great things girls love to do. Singing, dancing and being pampered are all good places to start!
#8 Source a restaurant with a difference
Dare to be different and try a new cuisine, to really tantalize your taste buds. Tell the restaurant that you are booking for a hens party, as many will offer you a secluded area. Ask for a set menu with a glass or two of wine each, to make payment easier.
#9 An alternative night out
If you love the thought of a nightclub or a male strip show. Look out for improv nights, which are similar to the television show, “Whose Line is it Anyway?” for a truly interactive experience.
#10 Have a wild girls night out
Many hens choose a “girls’ night out”, rather than a night in. Hens Night Party Melbourne
