Where did the hen night come from?
The term 'hen party' comes from the word 'henna,' which is a symbolic ritual that takes place the night before a traditional wedding in the Middle East.
This is where the 'henna tattoo' is applied to the bride to keep away the 'evil eye' and believed to purify the bride the night before the wedding.
The party itself was modeled on the classic 'bachelor party' and was introduced to our society during a period when the sexual revolution started in the 1960's, and gender equality became big news to us all!
Terms used for this type of party are know as the following:
Bachelorette party
Hen party
Hen do
Hen weekend
Hen night
Stagette
Girls night
Kitchen tea
The party is usually thrown by the maid of honor and can be these days anything from a meals out to pamper parties and paintballing! Basically any opportunity where females can bond!
So we came up with a Dancing Hen Night to tick all boxes.
We provide a great location where a group of ladies can come and enjoy a dance session with a hunky dance instructor.
Not forgetting to throw in a few drinks and nibbles to give you and your friends one fantastic hen night! All captured on film to treasure forever!
What better way to give your bride to be the perfect hen party!
