Gift Ideas for the Hen

Wicked Hens is here to help planning every aspect of your hens party, from activities to accomodation. So, we didn’t want to leave you hanging when it comes to deciding on a gift for your hen. Whether you’re maid of honour or a close friend, we’ve put together some great gift options that are thoughtful, sentimental and lots of fun!

1. Personalised Jewellery

Give the bride a gift she’ll treasure forever by opting for a piece of jewellery with her name, initials or a special date engraved on it. Whether it’s a pair of earrings, bracelet or delicate necklace, the personalised element adds a heartfelt touch to the gift; a keepsake she can cherish for years to come!

2. Experience Day

Exploring the sky in a hot air balloon or sipping Chardy in a winery tour, any experience is an excellent gift option for the bride to be. It gives the hen something to look forward to, maybe helping with a bit of pre-wedding de-stress, and provides the perfect bonding opportunity for you and your bestie to create some unforgettable memories. 

3. Memory Book

As you send your hen off into married life, it’s the perfect time to reminisce on the good old days. Spend some time putting together a scrapbook, filled with pictures, memories and mementos from your friendship. It’s such a sentimental and heartfelt gift that you better prepare for the waterworks when she opens it!

4. Personalised Wine or Champagne Bottle

A customised bottle of her favourite bubble is a very apt hens party gift – it is a celebration after all! Engrave the bottle with her name or a special date, adding a personalised touch that elevates the gift into a timeless keepsake. Plus there’s the added bonus of sipping some excellent champagne, which always helps make a good gift. 

5. Bridal Emergency Kit

Opt for a more practical gift and prepare your hen an bridal emergency kit. Fill it with wedding essentials that will definitely come in handy on her big day, such as breath mints, a mini sewing kit, perfume and maybe even a little tequila shot. You can tailor it to the bride to be, making it a great mix of luxury and sensibleness that she will love.  

6. Spa or Wellness Voucher

Wedding planning is a stressful time for brides, so why not treat her to a wellness retreat or spa day to relax before the big day. Indulge in massages, facials and soaks, giving you and your bestie some quality time whilst you unwind in the soothing atmosphere.

7. Subscription Service 

Why give one gift when you can give a year’s worth! There are so many subscription options nowadays that you can tailor it perfectly to your hen, from flowers to books, wines to coffee. There’s nothing more exciting than receiving a delivery every month, so paying in for a year’s subscription is sure to make your bestie smile all year long. 

Choosing the perfect hens party gift involves considering the brides preferences, personality and interests. No matter if you opt for a memory box or spa day, make sure it reflects your love and excitement for the bride’s new chapter in life. Happy hens party planning!
