Hens Party - Butlers in the Buff

HOW TO THROW A GREAT HEN’S PARTY

Want to throw a great Hen’s Party? Peter Suttle has attended hundreds of parties including Hen’s Nights over the years in his role as a Butler for Butlers in the Buff. Having worked as a Butler himself in the UK before purchasing the company’s first ever franchise in Australia, Peter has some great tips to plan the perfect Hen’s Night.

Here are his top Hen’s Night party tips:

1. Don’t humiliate the Hen. Make sure that what you do for her is within her comfort level and make sure you spoil her throughout the night

2. Add a little cheek to the evening, whether that be having Buff waiters serving food and drinks or through accessories that the Hen and guests can wear during the party

3. Ensure there is plenty of food to go around during the course of the evening

4. If you’re moving between venues make sure transport is organised and on time

5. Provide a little memento for each guest at the end of the night to remind them of the Hens night. It’s also always a nice idea to have a theme as well, for example all wear the colour pink for the evening so you stand out from the crowd at a public venue

6. Remind the Hen that it’s her last night of freedom so make sure she has fun (within reason of course)

7. Know the name of the Groom but don’t call him or his groomsmen during the night

8. Remember not everyone will be in the same spirit as the Hen so try and have activities and games on standby that everyone will enjoy

9. If you’re all heading to a club or bar ensure that they know a big group is arriving so you can avoid lining up

10. Not everyone will know each other so get the girls to mingle. Party games are a great way to break the ice or asking how each person knows the Hen can get people talking

11. Be prepared to join in or host the games such as being the quizmaster for "Mr and Mrs"

12. If the party is at home keep the room organised - clear empty glasses and plates and keep the kitchen and drinks area organised and tidy
