Ha I was reading these thinking who is having hens at the moment
Iāve been to loads too many in fact, worst Was my sister in laws at a dodge hotel in a college town, it had a nightclub attached, my mother and I (6 months pregnant ) ending up being the ones that got the room right over the nightclub, should have known what was coming when we saw they had disposable ear plugs in the room. So as the non drinker I drove to and from the hotel about 100km each way had to buy a black dress as guests were to wear black, bridesmaids pink, and the bride white got a cocktail class (oj), a VIP booth at a rather empty nightclub, a sleepless night and a continental breakfast for 300 quid turned out we had paid for the bride without even being told about it.
Iāve also been on 2 hen nights that the weddings did not happen one was abroad, as was the wedding that we had already booked flights and non refundable hotel for.
The best ones with the most fun have been a meal and night out pretty local, keep it simple!
My cousin fell out with me because I didnāt go to hers in Spain 4 weeks after my due date, was actually early as it turned out but who leaves a newborn to head to Spain on the lash! I said had from outset I would not be going abroad but she kept making digs about people dropping out.
As bridesmaid I helped organise my best friends hen she chose a specific event in a city which was a 4 hour drive away with intention of getting a bus, so many dropped out due to distance it became very expensive so bus plan got dropped as some going for 1 night etc I think 9 went in the end and we had a ball. The MOH did get stung for several tickets for those that cancelled so I got the printed t shirts, Willy straws, & goodie bags etc to balance it up Has to be done LOL
