Hen Party Outfit Ideas for Big Weekender
The Official Hen Do Survival Guide
Planning a Hen is a military operation. You need to herd 15 cats, organize the outfits, and ensure the Bride survives until Sunday. This is your command centre.
The 72-Hour Itinerary
Most Hens burn out by Saturday afternoon. Here is the pro-strategy for outfits and pacing.
The Chalet Setup
The Mission: Get in early. Decorate the main living area before the Bride opens the prosecco. This is your HQ.
Outfit: Casual Squad Tees (Comfortable for travel).
The Fancy Dress Night
The Mission: This is when you go BIG. Full costumes, wigs, and themes like 90s, Neon, or Space. The more ridiculous, the better.
Shop Fancy Dress →Recovery & Rinse
The Mission: The Pool Party. Nothing cures a hangover like the flumes at Splash Waterworld.
Outfit: Oversized "Recovery" Hoodies.
Venue Intelligence
The Skyline Pavilion
Vibe: The Runway. This is where you debut the outfits. It’s huge, bright, and full of other squads.
Tactical Tip: This is the best place for the group photo before everyone gets sweaty in the clubs.
Reds
Vibe: Hot, sweaty, loud. This is where the night ends.
Warning: Leave the heavy feather boas and plastic props in the chalet. You need hands-free dancing here. It gets tropical.
Premium Dining
Vibe: All-you-can-eat Life Saver.
Why: Trying to get 15 girls to agree on a restaurant is impossible. The buffet solves all arguments and lines the stomach for the vodka.

The "Find Me" Flag
In a crowd of 5,000 people, you will lose someone. High-visibility matching t-shirts aren't just for fashion; they are a safety beacon. "Look for the Hot Pink shirts" saves hours of searching.
The ID Crisis
Every single weekender, a Bridesmaid forgets her ID and gets turned away at the gate. Send a WhatsApp reminder: Physical Photo ID is Mandatory. No exceptions.
Apartment Power Wars
8 girls. 1 mirror. 2 plug sockets. Pack an extension lead. It is the single most valuable item you can bring to a Hen Do.
Choosing Your Squad Aesthetic
Decide your vibe. Do you want the personalised squad look, or are you going full fancy dress?
Pink Ladies
The Vibe: Unapologetically Hen. Choose our Hot Pink tees with bold white text. It screams "We are here for the Bride."
Customize Tees →Black Ops
The Vibe: "Team Bride" in black and gold. Classy, slimming, and looks great in the club photos. Less "L-Plates," more "VIP."
Customize Tees →Fancy Dress / Themes
