Whether it’s your first time organising a hen party or a stag do, or you’re a seasoned expert, you will want to make sure that the night is special and memorable. So whilst you’re writing the guestlist, think about your venue. Yes there’s nothing better than going to the spa or quad biking with a few friends, but going in a large group of 10 or more, isn’t easy. To ensure that everyone is able to celebrate the bride-to-be and groom-to-be in style, consider a party marquee, where you can tailor to their tastes and provide a big enough space for everyone who would like to get involved. For ideas on how best to throw a party, read on!
Decorations
Whether decoration is your thing or really not, be inspired by themes or let your professional interior designers take the lead.
Themes to consider:
- Bavarian – for those who like to dance and drink
- Monochrome – for those who like sophistication
- Colourful – for those who love a lively party
- Rustic – for those who enjoy the countryside
- Beach – for those who just want a little paradise
- Forest – for those who want a little nature
From a sophisticated monochrome party to an adventurous forest filled with tropical plants and lush greenery, your party marquee can be whatever your bride or groom-to-be will love. Work with your professional planner and think about how best to decorate, think hanging decorations, centerpieces, lanterns, flowers, candles, ornaments, bunting – whatever you envisage – let us know. Create an atmosphere that will reflect the best night to remember.
Furniture & Equipment
Whether you’re going for circle tables dotted about the room for an elegant get-together or typical Bavarian benches ready for a few steins and a sing-song, you can have your marquee interior exactly to your tastes. Chairs, tables, linings, table linens, lighting, toilets and generator hire can be provided to ensure you’re all set for the big surprise. Whatever type of gathering you have in mind, your event will be tailored to your exact requirements so not only will you ‘wow’ everyone, but it will be comfortable and functional too.
Games
Get the party started and have your early arrivals mingling over a couple of fun games. They don’t have to be complicated – you can get a giant noughts and crosses set, giant twister or even something as simple as ring toss. Games are the perfect way to get everyone ready for a fun night, it helps to break the ice and get everyone talking. If that isn’t enough, have a DJ and get everyone up on the dance floor!
Lights, Camera, Action!
A nice backdrop of fairy lights, a photo booth and photo props is a sure way to get the guests off their phones and involved with the night itself, with a booth and props at the ready, no one will say no to a few snapshots.
