So, you’ve got your hen night location and activities sorted. But there is a little extra touch that will ensure that the upbeat mood keeps flowing and everyone gets to have a spot in the limelight. If some of your hen night babes don’t know each other, get a game of truth or dare going before you go out, where everyone has to answer an intimate question, or of course, if they choose a dare…
To get photos of everyone screaming with laughter, outrageous episodes and crazy pranks to look back on forever, what you need are some hen night dares. A few fun tasks that keep everyone occupied and part of the team.
Write your hen do dares on pieces of paper and put them into a hat/bag. All the girls then draw them at random before you hit the town. Do this en-route in the taxi or in the room when you’ve checked into the hotel, with some pre-party shots to get the mood going. You can even start in the daytime if you have a 24-hour hen weekend planned.
To give you some ideas, here are some suggestions for hen night dares, ranging from the subtle to the positively wild…
Hen Night Dare Ideas
- Kiss the next man you see with a moustache/bald head/white socks.
- Dance the Birdie Song, even if it’s not on, with a handsome stranger.
- Get something worth £5 or over for free.
- Select a certain song title, and every time it’s called out the group must do a pre-designated dance (e.g. Saturday Night Fever).
- Ban the groom’s name from the night and make the bride-to-be down a drink every time she mentions him.
- Speak in a foreign accent all night.
- Drink everything through a straw all night.
- Convince the men that try to hit on the group that the hen is someone famous e.g. from the Pussycat Dolls, Corrie, Big Brother etc.
- You can’t have a drink unless a man buys it for you.
- Get a man to let you put lipstick on him.
You’re probably getting the idea now. Think carefully though; you don’t want any hens going off in a strop, so write your hen night dares with your girls in mind. Some may be more risqué than others.
The secret to a great hen do is to bond all your favourite females and have lasting and happy memories of a fun-packed time.
