Hen Party Accessories from HenStuff

The best thing about our T-shirt builder tool is the infinite number of possibilities it allows for. Here are some more custom T-shirt suggestions to amuse and inspire you:

L'enterrement de Vie de Jeune Fille

Ooh la la! If you're having your hen weekend in Paris (or you'd like to imagine that you are), this French T-shirt design will be perfect for you. L'enterremnet de vie de jeune fille is what French ladies call their bachelorette parties - it literally translates as 'the burial of life as a young lady', which is a) slightly morbid, and b) a bit of a mouthful. We'll stick to the phrase 'hen night', although we do think that this T-shirt would be perfect for a classy night out. 

 

Pink Isn't My Colour

Some people will tell you that you have to wear hot pink on your hen night, but don't worry - even if you hate pink and the girly associations that come with it, you can still have a great time! This simple T-shirt design lets everyone know why you're not dressed like all the other hens: because pink simply isn't your colour. This will appeal to all the hen night goths, rockers, emos, and anyone else who wouldn't be seen dead in a hot pink oufit.

 

We're No Chickens!

Just because it's called a 'hen' party doesn't mean you have to act like chickens! Hen culture is notorious for the, er, brave behaviour it encourages, so if you and your girls are up for a night of daring deeds and derring-do, this proud T-shirt slogan is the ideal thing to have emblazoned across your chest. You can't chicken out at a hen do!

 

Caution: I'm Drunk

Well, if you're planning on having a few, it's best to warn people.

As we mentioned before, this is just the tip of the iceberg. Our Personalised Hen Night T-Shirts can be pretty much anything you want them to be, so get creative and wear something truly unique on your big night out!

One of the more recent additions to our hen party shop is the Bachelor-Play Dice Game, and while a product that's intended for bachelor parties might seem like a slightly odd choice for a hen night site, we'd implore you to give this game a chance. Just because the dare dice are tailored to male interests doesn't mean they can't work equally well for the ladies - they just need a few minor adjustments!

So let's take a closer look at the so-called 'bachelor' dice (when you run a hen party shop, it's good to know the merchandise). You've got a 'Who?' die and a 'What?' die, so you roll them both, and the person or people on the first die have to do whatever it says on the second. Pretty straightforward, right? The challenges on the 'What?' die are perfectly applicable to a hen night: do a dare, do a shot, et cetera, et cetera. Admittedly, one face orders you to 'get a girl's number', while another demands that you 'ask a girl to dance'...we suppose you can flip the genders if you like, but hey, there's nothing wrong with two girls dancing.

The 'Who?' dice is a little more complicated, but since each face names a member of the groom's party, all you have to do is substitute the female equivalent. For example, 'Best Man' means 'Maid of Honour', 'Groom' means 'Bride', 'Groomsmen' means 'Bridesmaids', and so on.

There! We've successfully adapted a stag night game for a hen party. That wasn't so difficult, was it? If you want to play the Hen-Play Dice Game, the dice are currently available from our hen party shop for just £1.99. Grab those dice today!

So the day has finally arrived! You have packed your best outfit not to mention everything else except the kitchen sink and you are about to embark on your Hen Party Weekend. It’s probably been months in the planning and all of the Facebook banter between your hens has got you all whipped into a frenzy of excitement!

Whatever your chief bridesmaid has got planned for you, you are sure to have a fantastic time. There is something about a hen party that makes all of the girls super excitable and game for a laugh so you can be guaranteed a great time with plenty of laughs and plenty of stories to tell for months to come. You are the hen, you need to accept the fact that you will be centre of attention and embrace it. Go with the flow and have a go at any of the hen weekend activities they may throw at you. Be it cocktail making, a dance class, or even nude life drawing! There is usually an evening out on the town at some point and you need to wear those boppers and sashes with pride. Be a proud hen and make sure everyone knows it’s your hen do. It will be the one and only hen do you have and there are certain perks to screaming and shouting about it!

For many Bride to be’s the specialist treatment begins when you arrive at your hotel. Where possible many hotels will upgrade the Bride to Be’s hotel room. So you can be rest assured that although you will be hung over the majority of the weekend at least you will be hung-over in superior comfort.

Most bars and pubs will welcome hen parties with open arms. At the end of the day, they want your money and a hen party is likely to be spending a fair amount on booze. Many bars will entice your party in with the offer of free shots or even a bottle of champagne! Take full advantage of these offers even if you only stay for the freebies and then move on!

If you are partying in a large group it is well worth ringing ahead to several night clubs and explaining you are on a hen party and wish to frequent their establishment. At the very least they should put you on the guest list for free queue jump and potentially free entry and they might even throw in a private booth in a VIP area and a free drink too!

I think all bouncers expect hen parties to be a little bit more lairy and louder than usual and they are likely to cut you a little bit of slack for this. You can usually get away with playing silly games and performing silly dares within reason once you explain you are a hen party. Just sweet talk the bouncer, flutter those eyelashes and maybe even pose for a photograph or two with him, he will love the attention!

As the Bride to Be, you will be centre of attention. You will be forced to do things you might not be overly keen to take part in. But you should embrace it and go with the flow as the Hen no one will want to upset you so you can rest assured that you are probably going to win any competition or dare you enter into!
