Celebrate in Style: Melbourne’s Premier Cabaret & Dinner Experience

New to hens party planning? This step-by-step guide has everything you need to create a night of fun, sparkle, and unforgettable memories.

Because she only gets one last fling before the ring!

Planning your best friend’s hens party can feel like a lot. The pressure’s real — you want it to be unforgettable, classy, cheeky, and fun all at once. Whether you’re the maid of honour or the bride’s wildest mate, this guide will walk you through the must-dos, the don’ts, and the downright dazzling.

So pop the bubbles and let’s dive into how to plan the perfect hens night in Melbourne — starting with the ultimate experience at Crown.

1. Book an Unforgettable Night Out with the Princes of the Night 👑

Let’s be real — no hens night in Melbourne is complete without Princes of the Night. This isn’t just a show. It’s a full sensory seduction, served with cheeky charm, Vegas-worthy costumes, and the most talented male performers in Australia.

Held every Saturday night at Crown Melbourne, Princes of the Night is designed for glamour-loving brides-to-be and their entourage. Think front row seats, champagne in hand, and a private booth with your girls as the Princes deliver an electric mix of dance, storytelling, and irresistible energy. Bonus: there are hens packages available with pre-show dinners, private karaoke, and post-show cocktails at Electric Dreams on Level 3.

✅ Book early — this show sells out fast, especially for hens nights!

2. Pick a Theme (Or Don’t – But Definitely Coordinate) 🎀

Themed hens parties are back and better than ever. Whether you go full glam (old Hollywood, disco queens) or keep it simple (white for the bride, black for the tribe), coordinated outfits make for Insta-worthy photos and a sense of squad unity.

Tip: Bring feather boas, glitter crowns, or even custom fans from the Princes merch table for that extra sparkle.

3. Plan Your Day Around the Big Night 🗓️

Start with a bottomless brunch in Southbank or a spa session at Crown. Then, glide into pre-show cocktails at Ocean 12, enjoy stunning Yarra River views, and maybe belt out a few karaoke tunes. When the clock strikes showtime, your night truly begins.

Suggested itinerary:

• 2 PM – Spa treatments & bubbles perfect for a hens party

• 5 PM – Dinner at Crown

• 7 PM – Princes of the Night show

• 10 PM – Dance the night away at Electric Dreams

4. Get the Invites Right  to plan the perfect hens party💌

Use digital invites like Paperless Post or create a cheeky group chat to lock in your tribe. Include:

• Date & time

• Dress code/theme

• Meeting point

• Cost breakdown (ticket, dinner, drinks)

And don’t forget to ask: Is grandma coming? (You might need to tone it down… or not 😉)

5. Add a Personal Touch 💖

Create a “Bride’s Survival Kit” with mini champagne, lip balm, mints, and a personalised eye mask. Or prepare a hilarious “truth or dare” game that kicks off during drinks and carries through the night.

Want to go all out? Arrange a shoutout from one of the Princes during the show. Yes — they do that.

6. Don’t Forget the Morning After 🍳

If your crew stays at Crown or nearby, plan a recovery brunch. Places like The Conservatory or Left Bank serve up strong coffee and stronger eggs benny to get everyone giggling again.

Final Thoughts

Planning the perfect hens party doesn’t need to be stressful — just follow the fun. And if there’s one thing you book first, make it Princes of the Night. It’s the heart-thumping, champagne-popping, camera-clicking highlight that guarantees a hens night for the ages.

💋 Because when in Melbourne… you go to Crown, you see the Princes, and you party like royalty.
