Planning your party: timings, games and extras
Timing is everything for a smooth evening. A 90–120 minute booking is the sweet spot for festive hosting. It’s long enough to settle in, play a few games, mingle, and capture those group shots, but short enough to keep momentum high. For larger groups or multi-room venues, consider two hours so no one misses the fun.
A sample flow that works brilliantly:
- Welcome drinks and intros (10 mins): Your host greets guests, helps with coats, pours bubbles, and starts light banter.
- Icebreaker game (10–15 mins): A quick, inclusive round like “Name That Christmas Tune” or a naughty-or-nice card pull.
- Main activity (30–45 mins): Choose hen party life drawing for giggles and creativity, or go full mixology with a hen do cocktail class.
- Flexible hosting (20–30 mins): Top-ups, canapés service, group photos, and a mini challenge tailored to your crowd.
- Finale (5–10 mins): A toast, a prize for the sassiest Santa hat, and a last photo to close.
