A group of different ages during a programme
For a mixed group

When the bride's mother comes along

A hen party with only people the same age is easier to build than one where the bride's mother, a sister-in-law or an aunt is also there. That second kind is common, and it's exactly where a standard programme falls apart. What the group of friends finds funny is awkward for the mother-in-law. What's safe for everyone seems boring to the friends. We solve that by choosing activities with several ways to take part: whoever wants to lead from the front can, and whoever would rather watch and think along has a role that counts just as much.

So we ask beforehand about the make-up of the group, not only the number. If several generations are together, we make up mixed teams, so you don't get two little groups that exist side by side all day. We adjust the pace too: fewer activities that run on speed, more where discussion and knowledge count. We bring the equipment and the hosts. If you don't have a place for the programme, we'll arrange one.

Where a mixed group gets stuck

  • What the group of friends finds funny doesn't suit everyone
  • Activities based on speed exclude part of the group
  • Without mixed teams, the circles stay side by side

How we adjust the programme

  • Activities with several ways to take part
  • Teams that we put together mixed beforehand
  • Discussion and knowledge count as much as speed

Frequently asked questions

The bride's mother is coming along. Will that be awkward?

A mixed group works well as long as no activity puts anyone on the spot. We choose tasks nobody has to feel embarrassed about, and the guest of honour doesn't have to look silly anywhere. That's our starting point, not something you have to ask for separately.

How are the teams put together with so many different ages?

We put the teams together mixed beforehand. If you let a group do it themselves, cliques almost always form of people who already know each other, and then nobody talks to anyone they didn't already know for the rest of the day.

Can someone with limited mobility take part fully?

Taking part without much movement is possible in every activity we use for a mixed group. There's always a role where you think along, give directions or keep score, and it counts just as much as the physical role.

What does the price depend on?

Group size, duration and the amount of customisation decide what a hen party costs. After the first conversation we'll send a concrete proposal, so you're not left with a ballpark figure.
