ONE: 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!' 
TWO: BLINDFOLDED MEALS
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! 
THREE: COOKING CLASSES
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. 
FOUR: 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. 
FIVE: 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! SIX: 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!

SEVEN: 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 
EIGHT: ESCAPE ROOM EXPERIENCE
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, pictured below)?!
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. 
NINE: 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?! 
TEN: BOHO PICNIC
And last, but certainly not least, 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!
