Hen's Party ideas that don't involve strippers or penis straws



Does the idea of strippers and penis straws on your Bachelorette Party make you cringe?


I appreciate the male body as much as the next Hen, but the thought of some random grinding up on me while I have a feather boa around my neck gives me the ick.


So here are 6 ideas for a different kind of Hen's Party that will still be one to remember...




Get glam before your night out


Half the fun of a night out is getting ready, right? Put on some tunes, sip on a champagne and get ready together. Head to a blow bar like Dry & Tea for a group glam session heading out for the night.

Take the pampering to the next level


Why not get the girls together for a group facial or some teeth whitening before your wedding? Many salons and clinics offer bespoke packages and can tailor a day to your wants and needs. Who doesn't want glowing skin and pearly whites before a big event?

Organise a wellness day


If dancing and drinking the night away isn't your thing, why not organise a day of relaxation? Day spas and health retreats are a great way to unwind and connect as a group before your big day.




Peninsula Hot Springs or Slow House Bondi are amazing options for Hens Parties




Get Crafty


Cork and Canvas is a great place to go if you're after a crafty experience. Simply BYO drinks and nibbles and enjoy a 2.5 hour painting class. A paintbrush in one hand and a glass of bubbles in the other, sounds like a good laugh to me!

Remember your Hen's Party is just that: YOURS.


Do what you want. If that means strippers and painting the town red, DO IT!


If you want something low key? DO THAT! Make it a fun and memorable experience for yourself that you'll look back and smile on.
