Planning a hen do and fancy keeping it cosy and full of laughs? Hosting a cocktail hen party at home could be just the ticket! It’s the perfect recipe for a cracking night in – think cheeky fun, endless giggles, a bit of learning, and plenty of tipples. Here’s how you can create a memorable bash for the bride-to-be and all her best mates.
What Is a Cocktail Hen Party at Home?
A cocktail hen party at home is exactly what it says on the tin – a lively gathering in your own space where you and the girls learn to whip up (and, naturally, drink!) a variety of cocktails. With a professional mixologist coming to your home, you’ll get to shake, stir, and sip your way through all your favourite drinks – from classic mojitos to something a bit more daring. Fancy yourself as the next Bond girl with a martini, shaken not stirred? You’ve come to the right place.
Why Choose a Cocktail Hen Party at Home?
Still need convincing? Here’s why hosting at home could be right up your street:
Personalised Fun: No one knows what the bride loves better than you lot! Tailor every detail to her taste, from the décor to the playlist. Want a fancy dress code or themed outfits? Go for it! Whether it's glam or fancy pyjamas, it’s your rules.
Comfort is Queen: No faffing about with taxis, queues, or finding your way home in your heels. You’re already there! Staying in means you set the vibe, and everyone’s relaxed.
Cocktail Skills to Impress: This isn’t just about guzzling cocktails (though that’s definitely on the cards). You’ll also learn to make them like a pro! With a mixologist’s guidance, you’ll master everything from the perfect shake to garnishing like a boss.
What to Expect from Your Cocktail Hen Party
A typical cocktail masterclass lasts about two hours – more than enough time to get a bit tipsy and a lot giggly. Here’s how it usually plays out:
Introduction to Mixology: Your mixologist will kick things off with a few basics – the tools of the trade, some essential ingredients, and a few sneaky tricks of the trade.
Get Hands-On: Now for the fun bit! Everyone gets to try their hand at making their own cocktails, with the mixologist guiding you step-by-step. There might even be some cheeky challenges to spice things up!
Sip, Savour, and Snap: Time to enjoy your creations! This is your chance to relax, have a natter, and snap some fab photos to capture all those priceless moments.
Top Tips for Hosting a Brilliant Cocktail Hen Party at Home
Create a Cocktail Corner: Set up a fab cocktail station with all the kit you need – shakers, strainers, fresh ingredients, and plenty of ice. Make sure there’s space for everyone to get involved.
Theme It Up: Why not add a fun theme? Go for a Great Gatsby 1920s speakeasy, a tropical tiki bar, or even a Bond-style evening (martinis compulsory).
Serve Up Some Nibbles: Keep everyone’s energy up with some tasty nibbles. Light bites like canapés, finger food, or a cheese board are ideal.
Plan Some Cheeky Games: Keep the party buzzing with a few games – think blind taste tests, cocktail-making competitions, or even a dance-off!
