Ready to get a bit spooky?
If you’re planning a hen party for the end of October, jumping on the Halloween bandwagon could easily make it a night to remember. From terrifying outfits to terrible tricks and delectable treats, we’ve outlined our top tips for organising a spectacular Halloween hen do.
- Wear coordinating outfits
This might take a little bit more planning and coordination in advance, but we promise it’ll be worth it. Pick a theme and dress up the bride-to-be in a standout costume, with hens in an outfit to match.
Depending on your sense of humour, this could be a guaranteed way to keep you laughing all night – and start conversations in every bar. Whether you choose to dress up as your favourite Stranger Things characters or keep things cool by going as the Kardashian family, matching outfits are always a winner on any hen party.
- Play raunchy games
Who said bobbing apples had to be boring? If you book a butler in the buff for your Halloween hen weekend, you should expect to take all the usual party games to the next level.
If you already like the sound of icing sugar, strawberries, and melted chocolate, we’ll leave it up to you to imagine the possibilities of hen party games with a hunky host. For any naughty bride-to-be, booking a butler for Halloween would be unforgettable.
- Visit haunted destinations
What better way to celebrate Halloween than by hosting your hen party in a notoriously spooky spot? Even if you’re only there to find the best bars and clubs, you’ll be immersed in the best possible atmosphere for the weekend.
Whether you choose to revel in Edinburgh and frequent its legendary vaults or you’d rather take a Ghost Tour in York, the UK offers a wide variety of haunted towns and cities to choose from.
- Mix Halloween-themed cocktails
You can’t have a hen party without cocktails. Luckily, it’s surprisingly easy to find Halloween cocktail recipes online and stir up a storm in your own kitchen or private party minibar.
It only takes a little bit of creativity to make extra creepy cocktails. For example, this eyeball cocktail recipe calls for tinned lychee fruits paired with cocktail cherries and raisins to create an eerily realistic eyeball, floating freakily above a slime-green drink.
- Hit the town
Even if you’re planning a last-minute hen party, Halloween weekend always is jam-packed with local events. You won’t need to look far to find one-off club nights, DJ sets or dedicated venue parties, all of which could make a fantastic, group-friendly option.
If you know a bridge getting married this autumn, we’d only suggest planning a dramatic Halloween-themed hen party if you know she’d love it. You wouldn’t want to scare her…
