7 best Hens Party Themes + 2 bonus ideas

The Hens Party is when you’ll have the most fun during the wedding preparations. The idea is to hang out with the girls and enjoy yourself with all the energy. And nothing better than a themed party to help everyone to get into the mood. We’ve created a list of the 7 best hens party themes we see the most in our hens’ party cruises and 2 new ideas that can be super fun.

1. Henchella – The B2B Festival Theme

Aussies love festivals!! The idea of spending hours watching the concerts you love the most in the middle of a unique open space gets our hearts, even when it is muddy. Dress up like it could be the end of the world with the freedom and colours of the 70s. Getting into the hippie spirits with flowers, loose dresses, and lots of colours is the go-to in this theme. Enjoy your girls’ festival like it is the last of your lives. You can create custom hashtags; if the bride’s name is Jen, #jenchella!

2. Barbie hens party Themes

If you’re a millennial, you probably played with barbies during childhood. This theme can bring you and your friends back to that unforgettable moment. Each one chooses the Barbie they want to be, there will be lots of pink and you can also make a catwalk with all your friends and decide who dresses up better. Ideal for the girly bride or a B2B who loves pink!

3. Last Disco – sequins and sparkles theme

The last disco before your b2b ties the knot. We know it won’t be the last, but we all love the idea of all the girls in glitter and having fun the whole night! How many discos have you been together? That’s one more opportunity to create great memories with your besties, dancing all night long dressed in sequins and sparkles.

4. Nautical Hens Party themes

For a #henspartycruise, this theme couldn’t be more fitting! The nautical theme is classy and easy for you and the girls to enjoy being near the ocean. Lots of stripes, ropes, and the primary colours of blue and white are easy to make a great combination and something most likely to already be in your guest’s wardrobe.

5. Burlesque – The Great Gatsby

The Burlesque or Great Gatsby theme creates the effect of a time machine, bringing your group to the vintage Cabarets of the 1920s. There’s no better day to use sexy vintage costumes with lots of feathers and sparkling dresses. Perfect for groups that love to dance!

6. All-White Party

That’s the bridesmaid’s opportunity to swap the white with the bride-to-be. One of the most common themes when you see this group coming, you know that’s a wedding boat party to come! The bride can choose whatever colour she wants and stand out from the group. Perfect for brides who like to be the centre of attention or stand out from the crowd!

7. Sleepover

A pyjama party like the girls used to do years ago! But you will have bubbles and a grazing table instead of watching movies and eating popcorn. The costumes can be anything the girls already have at home, and we will see the different personalities coming up even when it is about sleeping. From the most comfortable hoodies to the sexiest nightdress, with everything in between, the only rule here is to have fun!

8. Christmas

Not as common as the other themes, but if your wedding is at the beginning of the year and the hens party happen to be in December, why not use it in your favour? Start the end-of-year celebrations with this original theme using reds and greens and dress up like naughty Holly Claus.

9. Halloween

Finishing this incredible list with one theme everyone loves to dress up for. If your party is planned for October/November, it will be the perfect excuse to enjoy the Halloween theme with the gals. The suspense and creepy atmosphere will create the ideal mood to start the night! Think about the many tricks or treats that can come from this theme or the goody bags to take home.

You will surely find one perfect theme for your hens party. Hens party themes are not just a lot of fun but also excellent icebreakers when not all the guests know each other. They are putting everyone in the same boat and setting the scene for fun celebrations!
