11 Creative Hen Party Ideas At Home To Celebrate Your Bride

The traditional hen party tends to have a reputation as being an all-out party, but for some brides out there, a more low-key celebration is preferred. Looking for creative hen party ideas at home? We’ve got you covered! This list has some great suggestions for chill parties that can happen in your very own living room or at super-stylish and nearby Peerspace venues.

1. Save time and energy by finding a venue on Peerspace

Want to know the best way to have hen party ideas at home? Find someone else’s house on Peerspace, the world’s largest digital marketplace for hourly venue rentals of all types. There are many fantastic venue options that are ready to go for parties, saving you time and energy on setting and cleaning up. Try out something like this amazing property in Kent that comes highly reviewed by Peerspace users.

“Karen and her husband Andrew are truly amazing human beings.” said Peerspace user Francine M. “They were very polite, helpful and super responsive for all my needs before and during my event. The house is beautiful in pictures but it’s breathtaking in person, just as advertised. I hosted my sister’s bridal shower. The space, view and weather was very fitting for the occasion. I would highly recommend this space, not only is it breathtaking but more importantly Karen and Andrew are truly one in a million hosts.”

2. Set the mood with the right invite

When inviting all your guests to a hen party at the house, you’ll want to set the tone and expectations early. We recommend sending out something like this editable pink hen party invitation from TemplateBestie’s Etsy shop! It’s super easy to fill it out with your party’s details and can even be sent as a digital invite if you want to skip the post office.

3. Host your own paint and sip

You can never go wrong with the combination of a wine tasting and a painting class. There are many services out there that offer virtual paint and sip classes, so you don’t have to drag everyone out to a studio and worry about getting back home after a few glasses. Every guest will also appreciate having a new piece of hand-painted art to bring home afterward!

Does the bride-to-be have a favorite show or movie? Give her the gift of a viewing party at home that captures the theater experience with popcorn, candy, and more. If you don’t have a home theater system don’t worry. Peerspace can connect you with local hosts who have offered their top-of-the-line cinema rooms for your event.

Take, for example, this modern home with beautiful clean lines and decor in Manchester. It is a perfect spot to see your hen party ideas at home come to life. Like every listing you’ll find on Peerspace, the host has plenty of high-quality photos uploaded, go ahead and take a virtual tour!

5. Get the whole party involved with fun printable games

Thankfully, there are some great options out there like this pack of printable hen party games from MorableDesigns on Etsy! This great value will keep your party supplied with plenty of games that are made to get everyone talking about the bride and guests.

6. Relaxing spa day

Chances are your bride-to-be has plenty to stress about before her big day. Planning a hen party where she gets to relax and be pampered is always a safe bet. Fill the house with all of her favorite skin care products, bath bombs, face masks, and a brand-new robe. She’ll be thankful to have a moment of bliss with all the hectic wedding planning!

7. Make a splash at an indoor pool party

If you’re planning for someone who loves to swim, a low-key indoor pool party can be a fantastic way to celebrate a hen do. Just look on Peerspace for spots like this retro house with an indoor swimming pool in Streatham. Enjoy the atmosphere of a party at home while being able to enjoy the luxury that is year-round indoor swimming. With your rental, you’ll also get access to the unique retro rooms and meeting spaces.

We recommend something like this personalised hen party scrapbook photo album from Made2PerfectionShop on Etsy! Give every guest an opportunity to write down a personal message to the bride and fill it full of photos from the special day.
