The hen night is a crucial event before any wedding, be it small or large.
Usually the future bride's friends put together a gathering in a club or restaurant for everyone to have fun and party all night long.
However, sometimes the preparation of such an event is very time consuming especially if the bride's friends are out of town and not in touch with each other.
Thus, in some cases the bride has to plan the hen night herself, taking care of every detail concerning the accessories, venue and menus.
Taking care of all these things before a wedding can be pretty difficult for any bride! The truth is that anyone would be happy to sort these details out at home when they have some spare time without having to go about the town and meet different people.
Thus, a great idea would be to put together a hen night at a friend's house.
Unless you are a wild group of friends, you will surely enjoy each other's company and the chance to catch up even if you are not in a special location.
Not going over the top with the preparations also means that one can save some money before the big event.
It is quite easy for the bride and her friends to cook a delicious meal for themselves and entertain each other with some jokes or funny stories.
Even the accessories may be made at home with a little imagination.
The traditional head pieces can be replaced by some white caps on which you can write each other's nicknames with a marker and you can also have fun with some T-shirts the same way too.
You may even invent some never-heard-of accessories that have something to do with your special friendship.
The bottom line is that the hen night is one of the last occasions you will have to party with your girlfriends and you should have as much fun as you can.
If you desire professional accessories there are thousands of specialized shops that can provide you with everything from T-shirts to funny sashes.
However, you should always buy from a trustworthy retailer.
