Bride Trivia

Divide the guests into teams and let the quiz begin! Questions can range from “What’s the bride’s favourite film?” to “What was her most embarrassing childhood moment?” For every wrong answer, the loser must drink so be sure to have your glass topped up with your favourite cocktail and let the games begin.

Dress-Up Relay

Let your creativity shine with a dress-up relay race! Divide the guests into teams and prepare a pile of wacky, themed clothing items and accessories. Think feather boas, oversized sunglasses, tutus, and tiaras. Set up a relay race where each team member must race to put on all the clothing items and then run back to tag the next teammate. The team that finishes first wins! This game is guaranteed to have everyone laughing and snapping hilarious photos.

Pin the Kiss on the Groom

Put a twist on the classic party game “Pin the Tail on the Donkey” with a hen party version featuring the groom! Create a large poster of the groom’s face and cut out kiss-shaped lips. Blindfold each guest, spin them around, and watch as they attempt to pin the kiss on the groom’s lips. The guest who gets closest to the lips wins a prize!

Pictionary: Hen Party Edition

Bring out everyone’s artistic side with a game of Pictionary tailored to the hen party theme. Before the party, prepare a list of words or phrases related to weddings, love, and friendship. Divide the guests into teams and have them take turns drawing clues while their teammates guess what they’re drawing. It’s a fantastic way to get everyone involved and unleash their creativity.

Dare or Dare

Take the classic truth or dare game up a notch with a hen party twist! Write a list of fun and daring challenges on slips of paper and place them in a jar. Guests take turns choosing a dare from the jar and must complete the challenge or face a penalty. It’s a hilarious game that will have everyone laughing and bonding over shared adventures.

With these five essential hen party games, you’re sure to create an atmosphere filled with laughter, bonding, and unforgettable moments.
