We love a bit of traditional hen party tack, but if you’re thinking of leaving the straws and sashes to the side for your big knees up, you might like some of these alternative hen party accessories instead! If you’re on the hunt for some non-traditional party props make sure to check out shops like Claire’s Accessories, Tiger, Dealz and euro shops around town where (if you’re lucky) you might come across funky balloons, hats and glasses. Of course if you want the job done quickly (and in your PJs!) pop online to sites like Etsy, NotontheHighStreet, The Peacock Bride (Ireland) and Bespoke Bride (UK – but some gorgeous free printables for Irish hens too!) for some really special bits and bobs. Lots of hen parties are taking on a more festival type theme these days, with flower crowns for the bride and fun temporary tattoos that’ll look quite cool on your Instagram feed (come on, you know you’re thinking about it!) so try out shops like New Look or ASOS for cool jewellery and accessories that’ll make the bride feel special on the night too!
