How to Plan a Lesbian Hen Party
Whether you're throwing your own, or planning someone else's lesbian hen do, it's important to nail the details to make the celebrations a memorable one! There are a few details that may set a LGBTQ+ hen party apart from a hetrosexual one, the main decision being whether the brides will celebrate together. If they do choose to celebrate on the same do, then making sure to ask both brides what their dream lesbian hen parties are when it comes to location and the hen activities is an important thing to bear in mind.
However, with that being said, the rest of the lesbian hen party planning should follow the same steps as a straight hen do. Throw most of your focus into making sure everyone has a fantastic time by arranging some amazing hen activities in a brilliant destination as your number one priority!
Hosting any party also needs good attention to detail to ensure all guests feel welcomed, respected, and included. Here are some tips to help you plan a successful and enjoyable celebration:
1. Discuss the party with the bride-to-be('s) and find out what she/they wants - Some people prefer low-key events, while others want something more extravagant. Make sure that the party is right up your bride's street.
2. Choose a venue that is LGBTQ+ friendly and welcoming - Research different options to find a place that is inclusive and accepting of diverse identities and expressions.
3. Consider the guest list carefully - Ensure everyone invited is an accepting ally. If the bride-to-be has friends in the community or family members, could you ask them and make them feel included?
4. Plan fun and inclusive activities for everyone - Avoid gender-specific games or activities that rely on gender stereotypes. Instead, choose activities focusing on shared interests or allow everyone to participate.
5. Make sure that the food and drink options include different dietary needs and preferences - Check with guests beforehand to see if anyone has allergies or dietary restrictions.
6. Be mindful of the language used during the party - Avoid using language that is exclusionary or offensive to anyone. Take the time to address everyone as their preferred pronouns and that gender-neutral language is used when appropriate.
If you're organising the lesbian hen party for a friend, take the lead on making everyone feel welcomed and respected whilst they celebrate the bride!
Lesbian Hen Party Decorations and Accessories
One of the easiest ways to make the lesbian hen do feel special is by adding some accessories to the affair! Staple decorations and accessories in a theme that your bride to be will love is an easy way to make her smile. There are plenty of options depending on the bride's favourite references, TV shows, colours, characters and more. Whether you want to go all-out with L-Plates and feather boas or choose something more unique, hen party decorations and accessories are worth considering.
If you've planned to stay in a local hotel or a hired house somewhere lovely, why not get some fun decorations together and surprise the bride to be when she walks through the door? You can also go the extra mile and invest in some matching accessories for your group to take on the night out. If you're trying to stick to a hen party theme for the last night of freedom, buying matching accessories for you and the girls would be a must!
Lesbian Hen Party Games
A cheeky LGBTQ+ hen party isn't complete without a couple of hen party games to spice things up during the night or weekend! Not only is it a great way to get everyone in the party mood, but it’s also an easy ice-breaker for any group members who have never met each other. Whether you fancy playing a few rounds of "Never Have I Ever" or a classic game of "Truth or Dare", there are tonnes of ways you can bring about lots of fun and laughter with party games!
There are also classic games such as the Mrs & Mrs Quiz that both brides can take part in and see how well they really know each other! Choose cute questions about how the brides met or what their favourite date is, or give the quiz an edgy twist with some not safe for work questions that are sure to make them blush.
