Competitive and Fun Hen Party Games

1. Find the Wedding Rings

Here is a competitive hen do party game idea – hide novelty rings (or Haribo sweets!) around your venue. The hens must search for them, with prizes for the winners or forfeits for the losers. It’s a light-hearted game that works best in self-catering accommodation. It’s a perfect hen party game if you’re hosting the hen party at home.

2. Toilet Roll Hens

Split into teams and compete to create the most glamorous “wedding dress” using only 4 toilet rolls and tape. Award points for creativity, speed, and resemblance to the bride’s actual gown (if she’s revealed it!) The Bride can judge the “best dress” and award a prize to the winning team. This is a great hen party ice breaker game, especially if some of the guests don’t know the others. It’s also the perfect game for all ages!

3. Taboo Words

At the start of the weekend, agree on a list of words no one can say (e.g., the groom’s name or “wedding”). If someone slips up, they must perform a forfeit like a dare. Turn it into a hen party drinking game by taking a shot or a sip of a drink as the forfeit. Alternatively, you can have a bucket of wooden mini-pegs and if someone says the Taboo words, they get a peg on their outfit for each word. The one with the most pegs at the end of the day must do a forfeit!

Example Taboo Words:

• Fiance’s name
• Brides name
• Honeymoon destination
• Ring

4. Hen Taboo

A hen party game with a twist on the classic game! On each card, write a word along with five related terms that can’t be used and players must describe the word without mentioning the taboo terms.

Example Taboo Words:

• Wedding Ring: Gold, finger, propose, circle, engaged
• Bouquet: Flowers, catch, throw, decorate, engaged
• Tuxedo: Suit, best man, groom, dressed, clothes
• Love Birds: Couple, tweet, wings, heart, fly
• Bridezilla: Film/movie, dinosaur, veil, wedding, angry

5. Pin the Trunk on the Hunk

This cheeky twist on Pin the Tail on the Donkey involves pinning a “trunk” onto a hunky picture chosen by the bride. Decide how raunchy you want the main hen party game to be!

6. Hen Bingo

Prior to the weekend, create a list of challenges in a 3×3 grid that will have the girls running around like headless hens – the first to tick off 3 in a row wins! You can extend the game by making a 5×5 grid or have different challenges on each persons card.

Example bingo challenges:

• Get a group photo of everyone in the hen party
• Find someone with the same name as the groom
• Find a coin from the year that the bride was born
• Talk to a stranger with a fake accent
• Get a free drink from the bar
