Hen and Stag Parties: Themes, Games, and More …

Hen and Stag Parties: Themes, Games, and More …

Created on: 27/12/2023
Updated on: 27/12/2023

Hen or stag parties are as much a part of the wedding as the wedding itself! A tradition firmly fixed in nuptials across the globe, these pre-wedding festivities are more than just events, they're the canvas on which the couple's unique story is painted! Here’s our blog with some ideas to make for an unforgettable celebration! 


Choosing the Perfect Theme

The theme is the glue that hangs the event together. Keep it simple or maybe choose a theme that goes beyond the usual suspects …


Vintage Glamour Speakeasy

Transport your guests to the roaring '20s with a speakeasy-themed celebration. Jazz up the venue with feathered centerpieces and a secret password for entry. Encourage flapper dresses and dapper suits for an evening of classic glamour and covert revelry.


The Masquerade

Bring an air of mystery and elegance to the celebration with a masquerade ‘ball’. Guests can arrive in elaborate masks and elegant attire, and the venue can be adorned with fairy lights, draped fabrics, and magical elements for a night of whimsical charm.


Desert Oasis

Create a desert oasis in the heart of the celebration. Think Moroccan-inspired décor, draped fabrics, rich, bold colors, and a touch of mystique with lanterns and cushions. The perfectly exotic souk!


Games & Entertainment

Games are the heartbeat of any celebration … here’s a few ideas to get the party started …


Memory Lane Challenge

Create a memory lane challenge that celebrates your journey together as a couple. Scatter photos of key moments throughout the venue, and have guests match each picture to a significant event. Even better, involve your guests in the trip down memory lane. 


Escape Room Extravaganza

Set up a pop-up escape room with wedding-themed puzzles and challenges. Teams must work together to unlock clues and 'escape' within a designated time. The winning team earns bragging rights and maybe, if you’re feeling generous, a prize!


Customized Pub Quiz

Host a pub quiz! Include rounds that cover your favourite movies, travel destinations, or quirky facts about your relationship. And of course, it’s probably obligatory to include a few ahem, personal, questions! 


Karaoke Battle!

Create themed teams and challenge them to perform songs related to the theme. Bonus points for creativity, costumes, and unexpected song choices. We love this one!


Culinary Delights: Food and Drink Ideas

All good celebrations involve eating and drinking! Here’s some innovative ideas to tantalize the taste buds … 


Molecular Gastronomy

Infuse an element of science and spectacle with molecular gastronomy. Consider nitrogen-frozen desserts, edible bubbles, or interactive food experiments. It's a gastronomic adventure that stimulates both the palate and the senses.


Themed Mixology Bar

Upgrade the bar experience with a themed mixology station. Craft signature cocktails that reflect the chosen theme, complete with creative garnishes and presentation. Guests can even try mixing their own custom concoctions.


Fusion Food Truck

Surprise your guests with a fusion food truck. Whether it's sushi burritos, gourmet sliders, or international street food, a food truck adds an element of surprise!


Last Few Tips! 

For a celebration to remember … 


Surprise Element

Infuse an unexpected surprise element that catches everyone off guard. It could be a flash mob, a surprise performance, or an unexpected twist in the schedule. 


Tech Integration

To capture the fun of the celebration, create a dedicated hashtag for social media sharing, set up a digital photo booth, or use a customized app for communication and updates.


Pulling off an unforgettable hen or stag party is no mean feat! From choosing a theme to games, entertainment, and culinary delights, the key lies in thoughtful planning and a dash of creativity! So, cheers to love, laughter, and a celebration to remember!


Happy couple
