It’s amazing to know what you can get up to once you leave the kids and the other half at home; heading off to enjoy the night with one of your girlfriends who is about to take the plunge into marriage. As we get older, the mischievousness that we got up to in our younger years seems to vanish. But it does come out on the odd occasion!
Now the standard hen night usually involves some sort of drinking and parading – and that should still continue. But there is usually the stay at the hotel, home or spa.

Your Own Personal Chauffeur For Club & Bar Hopping
Now this obviously depends where you are based in the world. If you are based in a city where the bars are quite far to get to, the last thing you want to be doing is jumping in different cabs every time you want to move to the next location, racking up an expensive bill.
Instead, opt for a driver for the day who will be waiting for you, taking you wherever you want to go.

A Mini Road Trip
Another option is to make a complete day of it by visiting spots as part of a day-long road trip.
For example, you may start at your accommodation and then drive up the coastline; listening to your favourite tunes and doing a sing-along. Stop off at a cafe for a bite to eat or some lunch, and then make your way to the next location. This second part of the trip could include games or gossip – just make sure that the driver isn’t someone you know!

Here’s a fab idea for your bachelorette. It is high-tech hide and seek where party-goers can experience the fun of a live video game. It is a way for your guests to star in their own real-life action blockbuster.
What am I talking about?
Laser tag!
If your crew love Wonder Woman and Lara Croft, or they simply love to watch re-runs of M*A*S*H, then this is the party for you. It’s a way to enjoy the thrill of an army-themed hens party... without the risk of bruises; and it’s perfect for day or night, indoors or outdoors. Better yet, by hiring equipment from businesses such as Laser Tag in a Box, the battles can be right in your own backyard!

Battle Royal in Your Backyard
Popular laser tag games include Capture the Flag and Team Death Match. Both game modes are intuitive, but the number and type of missions you play is limited only by your imagination.
TEAM DEATH MATCH
Let’s start with Team Death Match; it’s a simple eliminate the enemy type game that is perfect for getting the party started.
To play, divide the group into roughly equal team sizes. Teams start at opposite ends of the battlefield (a.k.a. your backyard), with unlimited re-spawns from their base stations and 5 hit points per person (in other words, hits a player can take before they must go back and get a respawn from their team’s medic box).
The computer inside each team’s medic box will count the number of respawns, with the winning team being the one who has the least respawns at the end of the game. This mission is a great ice-breaker because every gamer plays the whole mission and it’s very forgiving of mistakes.
ELECTRONIC CAPTURE THE FLAG
Next we have Electronic Capture the Flag, which is a new twist on an old favourite!
To play, guests must once again divide into two teams (the ‘red team’ and the ‘blue team’). The aim of the game is to tag the flag box of the opposing team.
To get started, each team receives one medic box (with unlimited respawns from their home base, which is wherever the team’s medic box is placed), and one friendly flag box (which is positioned on their side of the battlefield, a short distance from their medic box).
The goal is to shoot the opposition’s flag box and get back to your team’s flag box and shoot it.
Once someone shoots a flag box, that player gets a special sound and light effect. So guess what? They become a target!
If the player doesn’t make it back to their base, she doesn’t earn a point for her team.
It’s loads of fun and the team with the most points at the end of the game wins!

Take Your Laser Tag Experience to the Next Level
Why not level-up the fun and theme your event with fancy dress and themed food?
You can get decked out with a G.I. Jane costume and some camo paint, or you could don aviator glasses and Andrew Sister’s style uniforms complete with fight caps!
It’s also fun to dress up your outdoor laser tag arena with rented camo nets and anything else that will get your guests excited for a day or night of action.
After the combat games, you can then kick back and enjoy some themed food such as an Asian Buffet and vodka martinis.
So ladies, lock ‘n’ load and book your hen’s party today!

And for good reason! Such events are always fun and full of laughs.

OUTDOOR ADVENTURES PROGRAM (FOR AN EPIC ADVENTURE FEST!)
When you think of your best friend and her crew, does the phrase 'seekers of adventure' come to mind?
For the bride-to-be who lives for excitement, a multi-activity adventure programme, such as Adventure Enduro, could be the ideal way to celebrate her special day!
Filled to the brim with thrilling experiences (such as hiking trails, rock climbing and caving), this 'adventure fest [will be] the ultimate day of fun and challenge for both body and mind'!
But it's not all about racing the clock and taking part in high intensity tasks. This kind of event is also designed to bring people together.
Andrew of Unleashed-Unlimited puts it perfectly in saying that, 'as well as being an unforgettable time out with friends that's a hell of a lot of fun, our programmes offer a level of challenge that strengthens the emotional bonds between people. It's a way of demonstrating through action that, "we're going to be with you through your journey, we've got your back"'.

PAINTBALL (PAINT THE TOWN!)
Run, duck, sprint, hide, jump, weave and... pull that trigger!
Fun and extreme all in one, Paintball offers all the excitement you'll need to really get the party started!
If you haven't heard of this action-packed team sport before, it involves a competition in which players eliminate their opponents by 'shooting' and hitting them with 'paint' (i.e. dye-filled capsules that explode on impact).
As Prue of Paintball Skirmish says, you'll 'have an absolute ball running around shooting your friends, diving behind cars and trees; [all] in your best commando style!'.
Be warned though - those splattered colours may look pretty, but the pesky capsules also leave their mark! To avoid your bride-to-be arriving at the alter covered in bruises, consider hosting her Paintballing hens at least one month prior to the big day (or invest in some good makeup to cover the evidence!).

Keen on the idea of Paintball, but not so sure about the little mementos it may leave on your body? Then clip on a vest and grab a laser gun, my friend, because laser tag has the fun without the bruising (unless, of course, you’re a bit of a clutz like me...)!
Much like paintball, laser tag is a team sport with an overall goal. This goal will depend on the type of laser tag game you play (for instance, your objective may be to grab the flag from your opponent’s base). It’s a great way to begin your celebrations as it will loosen everyone up and get your guests working together!

KAYAKING (CATER TO EVERYONE IN YOUR GROUP)
If your hen absolutely LOVES the beach/water, you should definitely consider including the big blue (or some sort of blue, anyway!) in her celebrations. And what better way to do this than with an activity that caters to all levels of fitness and experience - kayaking.
Kayaking is a fantastic group activity that will have you cruising around, playing games and chatting. 'We [offer] double or single kayak tours', says Simon of Walking on Water & Ullandulla Surf Schools; '[they're] a great laugh, especially when we get the tug of war happening!'.
Slot this fun activity into a day spent hanging out on the sand, playing a few beach/river games and enjoying some sneaky bevs for a treat your hen won't forget.

HOW DO I GET EVERYONE INVOLVED IN THE DAY?
Keep guests and hen in mind when planning this adventure filled day. After all, you don't want the festivities to be so extreme that the rest of her friends aren't keen to attend!
A great way to ensure everyone is on the same page is to include guests in part of the planning. They can then voice their opinions and, as a group, settle on an activity that suits.
If you're having trouble getting the entire party on board, there is also the option of splitting the event into sections. Whether it be financial situations or the fact that particular activities aren't enjoyed, having a sectioned event means that those who don't want to attend the planned adventures can still be part of the day. They simply meet up with the group at a later time!
