5 REASONS YOU'LL LOVE A BEAUTY BAR AT YOUR HEN'S EVENT

21/12/2019

Beauty Bar

​AUTHOR: HOLLY, 'LUXIT' BEAUTY EDITOR
If you’re planning your hen’s event and wondering how to add that X-factor, you might be the perfect candidate for an at-home beauty bar, offering your friends and family the chance to treat themselves and have their own glam squad at the ready. The team from LUXit, Australia’s premier mobile and beauty concierge, share their top 5 ways you can enjoy a beauty bar on this special (and fun-filled) day or night!
​

Pair Printables with your Beauty Bar

A Beauty Bar Will Have You...


1. GETTING READY FOR YOUR CLOSE UP
No matter what you’re planning for the day (or night!), starting your hen’s festivities with a bespoke beauty bar pop-up at your home or venue will really set the tone for the fun to come. You might opt for yourself and all your girlfriends to enjoy a complete makeup look application, or a quick touch-up before an evening out.

No matter what you choose, everyone will be looking and feeling their best (and everyone will be camera-ready for the hundreds of snaps you’ll be taking!).

2. MAKING TIME FOR CONNECTION
Incorporating a beauty bar into your hen’s day or night means you can all unwind (with a glass of champagne!) and enjoy each other’s company - and there’s something for everyone.

​You might have a manicure station, a false lash application and a pick-me-up massage; so your guests are not only celebrating this exciting time for you, but also getting to really catch up with one another while treating themselves to some beauty touch-ups.

3. GETTING A LITTLE ADVENTUROUS
There’s no better time than your hen’s night to be adventurous and try that winged liner, that glitter lip or that high-pony - and with your wedding makeup trial sorted and your go-to elegant look confirmed, take the opportunity to have fun with your beauty routine for the night, all with an expert hand at the ready to make it happen!

​You might even like to designate a “signature look” for the evening inspired by your favourite celebrity red-carpet moment, or a colour-scheme for your whole group, and our LUXit makeup artists will take care of the rest.

4. CALLING IN THE EXPERTS
This environment is a great way to learn expert skills and ask those burning beauty questions.

For our LUXit beauty bars, for example, you’ll be visited by our expert LUXit Partners across all areas of expertise - from celebrity facialists to in-demand hair stylists, you can rest assured that yourself and your guests will be completely taken care of.

​During the celebration you might like a quick how-to workshop for the perfect at-home blow dry, or a guide to contouring 101 - whatever you’re looking to learn, our LUXit Partners are ready to impart their wisdom for a hen’s event that all of your guests will really take something away from.

5. INDULGING AT HOME
For those looking to really slow down for their hen’s (perhaps you’re not the partying kind, or you have your wedding just around the corner so you want to give the late night a miss), why not bring the spa to you? Think head & shoulder massages, pedicures and facials all under one roof; the perfect custom indulgence for a smaller group.

​You’ll not only be able to relax in the company of your friends, but you’ll enjoy this down time as the bride-to-be before the big day approaches. This is also a great way to thank your maid of honour, bridesmaids and family members who have dedicated their time and energy to your upcoming nuptials!
Pedicures
With the rise of the on-demand economy, professional beauty & grooming services have never been easier to access, and LUXit combines luxury and expertise that will really make your hen’s event something to remember!

INSIDER TIPS FOR HOSTING SUCCESSFUL PRIVATE WINE TOURS!

27/9/2019

0 Comments

 
Private Wine Tours

​AUTHOR: NEP OF 'KANGAROO HOPPING TOURS'
You've been nominated as the matron of honour and it's your responsibility to organise the Hen's Day. Now comes the hardest part... where to from here? You start searching for Hen Party ideas or activities to get the group out. With so much to choose from, it can be a daunting task. But then you come across an option where a lot of the planning is done for you: private wine tours in beautiful locations such as the Yarra Valley!
​

Private Wine Tours & Printables

Why a Private Wine Tour?

When you think of a hen party, it's all about having fun, creating new memories, sharing new experiences and, as a bonus, it involves wine - right?

With a private winery tour, you can expect all of this and more!

Hosted and coordinated from start to finish, all the leg work will be done for you. Meaning, as an organiser, there is very little for you to do. Just confirm your numbers and let your tour operator know what you'd like included to suit the group budget.
Yarra Valley Wineries

What to Expect Whilst on a Private Wine Tour

The door-to-door service will take you winery hopping where you can enjoy scenic views and wine tastings at popular and boutique wineries.

You get your own driver and exclusive access to the tour vehicle; no sharing with other groups. The hosted packages are there to facilitate the day for you and are always available to take group photos if you wish. 
There will be so much to sample and so many ways to add colour to your day! In the Yarra Valley, for example, cheese, chocolate, scrumptious foods, make your own flower crown classes, sweeping views and many photo opportunities are all available.

​And with everything behind the scenes taken care of for you (such as coordinating venue bookings, calculating travel time between venues, and planning the itinerary to your criteria), all you have to do is be ready for the fun at pick up time!
Yarra Valley wine tour

Friends with Dietary Requirements?

Not a problem! Private winery tours can assist in organising the finer details to make sure everyone is catered for and does not miss out on the fun. Just let your host know before the event if anyone in the group is vegan, vegetarian, pregnant or has food intolerances.

Our goal is to accommodate everyone, and we find that passing on all relevant information to the wineries is important for a smooth day out.

Add Some Unexpected 'Wow' Factor to Your Day!

How about having your Hen's event captured from the sky? That's right, drone video and photography! Long after the day is over, re-live the highlights with a takeaway video clip which is offered by Nep, a licenced drone operator at 'Kangaroo Hopping Tours'! 

Make it Memorable

The hen's day is the second notable event before the wedding day. It's a day where you let your hair down, get to know the closest people of the bride, share secrets, laugh from the belly and have fun!

​Make it memorable with offerings from the Yarra Valley (or, if you're in another state, the closest wine region) and the people that are there to facilitate it all. No matter what the group budget is, you are guaranteed to have a great time!

DISCOVER WHAT IT’S LIKE TO BE SKY-HIGH WITH A SPECTACULAR CIRCUS THEME PARTY!

1/7/2019

Circus Theme Party

​AUTHOR: ELOISE OF 'CIRCUS AKIMBO'
Wedding planning can be stressful, and sometimes the bride-to-be might feel like running away from it all. So why not let her? Why not grab her closest friends and family, and run away to the circus for a day?!

See below for how you can create a circus theme party to remember!
​

Circus Theme Party Printables

Running Away to the Circus

It’s one thing to go to the circus and see the aerialists fly over your head, but getting up there yourself is a whole different experience.
​
Learning to climb high and hang upside down is not only incredibly fun, but will also help your hen relax. After all, it’s hard to worry about that upcoming wedding when you’re feet aren’t on the ground!
Adult Circus Theme Party

What Happens at an Adult Circus Party?

You will learn a whole lot of new skills (with plenty of Instagramable moments to capture along the way)!

​For example, the basics of aerial skills, trapeze and lyra (i.e. the aerial hoop) will have you working up a sweat, whilst simultaneously leaving the whole party amazed at what their bodies can do. And while some guests may be a bit nervous at the start of the class (feeling as though they’re not strong enough, fit enough, brave enough, or anything else enough), experienced trainers will soon put their mind at ease, making sure they’re comfortable, having an amazing time and wanting more by the end!
​
Following the actual lesson, these new skills of yours can be celebrated by sipping on a glass of wine and chowing down on some delicious food (all of which you will definitely deserve!). You can also have a giggle and re-live your favourite (or most hilariously awkward) moments by scrolling through the hundreds of photos you snapped throughout the day.
Adult Circus Party

Add to the Fun with Circus Costumes

And if that’s not enough, this type of party is also perfect for the hen who loves any excuse to dress up. Whether you encourage the group to arrive with a similar style of performer makeup (colourful eyes and lips, for example), clown makeup (rosy cheeks, dramatic eyes, red nose and red lips) or even in a set dress code (such as bright colours or patterned bows); it will only add to the fun, laughter and photo ops on the day.
​
Just remember that this type of experience will require clothing that can’t get caught in equipment, and that you can easily move around in. The golden rules are to wear anything that you can move in and be upside-down in, as well as no zippers!

To make sure everyone can join in and have a great time, specify the type of clothing allowed on your invitations (and if you’re the one choosing what everyone will wear, make sure it’s something suitable for the class)!
Circus Costumes

Are You Ready to Celebrate Circus Style?

Everyone wants to feel strong, amazing and confident in their body – and you will feel all of this and more whilst having the time of your life and learning new skills.

At Circus Akimbo we offer circus classes with a variety of extras to make the planning as stress-free as possible. And, most importantly, we have experienced trainers who will look after you and tailor the entire party to your bride-to-be; meaning everyone will have an amazing time.
​
So why not bring your best friend and her closest pals along to the circus and feel like the super women you are?!

SECRETS TO HOSTING AN UNFORGETTABLE PAMPER PARTY!

7/6/2019

1 Comment

 
Pamper party

​AUTHOR: MEL DRIVER OF 'EMBALM SKINCARE'

Planning your wedding can be so stressful and time-consuming it feels like a full-time job in itself.

Why not make your hens party something that will help relieve that stress, rather than add to it? Get the girls together and have a girls night in pamper party.
​
Set the mood for the night with some relaxing music for your guests to arrive to. Search for ‘Smooth Jazz’ playlists on YouTube or Spotify.
Pamper Party Printables

Set the Scene

Light some scented candles to give the room a calm atmosphere. Choose scents proven to enhance relaxation, such as lavender or vanilla.
Pamper party ideas

Pamper in Style

Before your guests arrive, set up stations around the room with:
  • A portable foot spa and towels (add a drop of peppermint oil to the water to leave feet smelling fresh).
  • A table with a bowl of water, some hand scrub and hand towels (if you don’t have a hand scrub available, it’s easy to whip some up with just white sugar and coconut or olive oil).
  • A table with natural hand cream for hand massages. Start at the base of the hand and work your way towards the fingers in slow, concentric circles.
  • A table with nail polishes and cotton tips (depending on how close it is to the wedding day, you will want to make sure the nail polish is the right colour for members of the bridal party and that application is neat and tidy).
​Rotate around the stations in pairs or groups.

Next Up... A Mini Facial

The benefits of a DIY mini facial are endless. It can instantly make your skin look radiant and it helps to keep your skin in optimum health. It’s also a great way to unwind and treat yourself.


STEP 1
Be sure to take your makeup off before you begin your pamper party.


STEP 2: FACIAL STEAMING
Do the facial steaming first to open up pores so that the face mask can penetrate deep and nourish the skin. You can use rooibos, chamomile or green tea. Add 1 tablespoon of loose tea to a bowl, pour over hot water and wait a couple of minutes so you don’t burn your face with the hot steam. When the temperature is right, place your face over the bowl and place a towel over your head.
Do this for about 5 to 8 minutes.


STEP 3: FOLLOW UP WITH A DIY FACE MASK
Cucumber is one of the best kitchen ingredients to soothe, heal, and re-hydrate dry skin. Combined with Greek yoghurt or natural plain yoghurt, you can create an awesome face mask to nourish your skin and make it supple and smooth again!
​
Yoghurt contains antibacterial and antibiotic properties that help treat bacteria. It deep cleanses, nourishes and softens the skin. Only use plain, unsweetened, and unflavoured yoghurt to avoid any skin irritations and rashes.


Ingredients per person:
½ Cucumber
1 tablespoon yoghurt

Directions:
Blend the ingredients into a puree.


Pat dry with a towel and apply a thick coat of the face mask to your face and neck, avoiding the eye area. Leave on for 10 to 15 minutes. When the time is up, gently rinse off the face mask using lukewarm water.

Pat dry with a soft clean towel.


STEP 4
Apply a hydrating, natural moisturiser.

If D.I.Y. Relaxation is Not Your Style...

You might prefer to hire a mobile massage service and all take turns having professional massages in a separate room.
Professional massage

Hire a (Topless) Bartender

The perfect addition to a pamper party for adults! ​To add an element of fun to the evening, hire a bartender to come and make cocktails for all the girls or find one who will teach a class on making cocktails with what you have at home.

Snacks

For a simple, yet indulgent, treat you can’t go past fresh fruit and chocolate fondue.

Melt the chocolate slowly in the microwave or on the stove top, with the chocolate in a bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Prepare and serve in a bowl right before it’s time to eat.

​Fruits like strawberries, banana pieces and apple slices will always be winners here, but you can experiment with others like pineapple and pear.

​Have separate bowls of white chocolate, milk chocolate and dark chocolate to add variety without much extra effort.
Chocolate fondue

Chick Flicks

After you’re done pampering each other, put on your dressing gowns and slippers, and get comfortable watching a classic chick flick. This would also be a great time to pair up and give each other neck and shoulder massages.
​
As Anne Lamott once wrote – “Joy is the best makeup”, so have a pampering night in with the girls and give yourself that beautiful glow that comes from being happy and relaxed!

Classy Hen Party Ideas
AUTHOR: BEC OF 'FOR EVERY HEN'
​Whether your best friend is a creative soul, you want to do something unique as a group, or you’re simply after a way to celebrate that is different to the ‘typical’ hen’s night style, this blog is for you. Fun and unlike anything you have ever done before, the wonderfully imaginative and classy hen party ideas below will definitely not disappoint. Enjoy!

Classy Hen Party Ideas & Printables

Art Class (With Food & Wine!)

If you would like to try your hand at painting and/or drawing, an art party is the perfect solution!

'Get the ladies together and celebrate your bride-to-be with an experience like no other – painting your own masterpiece with a glass of bubbles in-hand!' says Cork & Canvas. 'BYO drinks and nibbles, with all art materials, aprons, glassware supplied. All you need to do is sit back and have fun while talented professional artists guide you step-by-step in getting your Picasso on!'
​
Not only a fun way for guests to express themselves, there are also no prerequisites (other than a willingness to give it a go); meaning even those who don’t consider themselves as ‘the arty type’ will be able to relax, have a blast and create something special whilst hanging out with their friends.

​As Sophia says, '
grab your bridesmaids, your favourite bottle of red, and let’s Van Gogh!'

If your best friend is anything like me, a celebration that includes a selection of gourmet dishes will go down an absolute treat! But how do you incorporate food in a creative fashion? How do you take a normal, everyday experience and make it extraordinary?

Let me give you a hint... blindfolds!

Just one of the unique dining experiences available at Chefin, Blindfolded Dinners do away with etiquette and ‘replace manners with heightened senses’; meaning you will ‘pick up flavours, aromas and textures you’ve never experienced before’! Complete with your own private chef and a customised menu (amongst other things), this is an unforgettably yummy, stress-free and fun dining experience that will leave your foodie hen and all of her friends wanting more!

Cheeky Sculptures

When you feel like getting artistic... but in an 18+ kind of way!

A cheeky yet classy group activity (not a stripper in sight) that will result in a ridiculous amount of laughs. The 'Phallus Picasso' provides parties with naughty sculptures that can be transported easily and painted from any location.

Not only will decorating these beasts be fun and memorable, but the final products also make for unique take-home goodies.

Cooking Class

Get creative in the kitchen with your closest pals! From chocolate or cheese making courses through to pasta making, there are so many options when it comes to expanding your cooking knowledge. Watch, learn and get hands on, produce something delicious, and use your new skills at home to re-create the dessert or dish time and time again!
​

Interested to know what such an experience would entail? At the Mudputty’s ‘Pasta Making & Italian Sauces Cooking Class’, for example, you will not only learn how to make and shape pasta from scratch, but also how to create three delicious Italian pasta sauces and a traditional Italian dessert. You’ll then get to enjoy the feast you created along with some wine #getinmybelly!
​

With most classes designed for all skill levels and people of all ages, this inclusive activity idea is a great way for your hen to celebrate with parents, grandparents and even younger siblings, friends and/or family.

Flower Crown Workshop

If you’re searching for a creative idea that allows everyone (children and adults alike) to take a walk on the arty side of life, then you should definitely consider a flower crown party!
​

A classy and entertaining experience, creating a flower crown from scratch is not only a fun activity that will leave guests quite impressed with their skills, but also a beautiful way to make memories with your closest friends and/or family.

​Expect lots of giggles, stories and champagne sippers as everyone puts together their very own stunning creations. Then expect LOTS of photo ops once the making is over as your crowns will be so fabulous they'll NEED to be caught on camera!

Surprise Dining

Another great way to incorporate food into your celebration is by taking a walk on the wild side and taking part in a secret dining event!

That's right! Businesses such as 'Secret Foodies' (pictured) will take your everyday dinner-and-drinks experience to new heights - with the destination of your dining being a mystery to everyone, including the host, until 2 hours before you take your seats! With warehouses, laneways, heritage listed barns and even exclusive parks on the menu, your group is in for one amazing foodie surprise.

Dance Class

For the hen whose got rhythm (or doesn’t, this will be fun either way!), why not learn ALL the right moves by booking yourselves in for a dance class?!

With so many great styles to choose from (ranging from Twerking and Beyonce through to Burlesque and the Charleston), your best friend and her girls will soon be giggling, shimmying, popping and dropping their way towards mastering (or at least trying to master!) the art that is dance.

But probably the best part of this activity is that the fun doesn’t stop once the class is over. Rather, this is the time when you get to share your new skills with the world! Can you imagine? A flash mob featuring your hen and her excited gals right in the middle of a restaurant or public place? Or nailing the routine in the middle of a club dance floor when that one particular song just happens to play (cue sneaky request from the maid of honour)?
​
For a fabulous example of what you can expect out of a hen party dancing experience, check out the ‘Diva-licious’ moves in the ‘F is for Dance’ (a dance school specialising in hen's nights) video below!

Paint or Sketch a Model

For a classy and creative experience with a cheeky twist, you can’t go past an art class whose model just happens to be naked! Whilst a little on the naughty side, these classes are also very insightful; teaching you tricks of the trade when it comes to drawing and painting. As such they are known to be enjoyable for young adults and grandparent alike!
​
And for those who want to take it just that little bit further, there are also experiences where you paint the model himself (such as the one offered at Hens Party Ideas Adelaide - pictured below)! That’s right, rather than putting pen or brush to paper... you'll be putting brush to skin #ohbehave

Escape Room Experience

★Click here to view a range of DIY Escape Room Kits★
If your bride-to-be never backs down from a challenge, why not put her determination to good use by trapping yourselves in the ultimate real-life puzzle (such as the bar and escape rooms offered by TRAPT)?!

Requiring teamwork and collaboration to succeed, this experience will be difficult, fun and exciting - with the desire to find a way out bringing your entire group together! A fantastic way to start the party off with a bang, an escape room will become the major talking point for the rest of your celebration.

For those who aren't keen on leaving the house (or accommodation) for this activity, check out Lock Paper Scissors and their range of DIY escape room kits!

The Buckens Outdoor Experience

Are you looking for a unique, creative way to get everyone involved in the pre-wedding shenanigans (the girls AND the boys all together)? 'The Buckens Outdoor Experience’ may be your answer.

​A fun activity that combines the puzzles of an escape room, the search of a scavenger hunt and the story-line of a movie; the Buckens is a fun way to get everyone thinking, talking, laughing and working together.

‘Equipped with locked backpacks and an app on your smart phone, teams of up to 8 players (several teams can play at once) will be challenged for about 90mins’, says Stephane of Escape Room Eight. In this time, you will ‘head to various locations around Manly, solving puzzles whilst unlocking and revealing more clues hidden within your bags'.

Located elsewhere in the world? Put together a DIY scavenger hunt experience that the girls (and boys) can enjoy in teams. So what do you think? Have you got what it takes to solve the mystery before it's too late?!

Boho Picnic

And last, but certainly not least, for our classy hen do ideas, there is the option of a stunning boho picnic. Whether you DIY it or hire a professional stylist, an intimate picnic is not only a great way to make your day unique (it is a special occasion, after all!), but also the perfect way to relax, enjoy great company, devour some delicious food and sip on some yummy wine. Combine with some fun activities (such as a flower crown workshop) for added flair and you have yourself and event to remember!

For some fantastic picnic styling ideas, you can't go past Little Miss Party Planner's beautiful setups (pictured below; click here for some of their greatest picnic tips)!
