6. Paint and sip
Get your wellness on with some light art therapy at a paint and sip class for hens parties! With the option to bring your own drinks and make them non-alcoholic, your hens paint party can be catered to the group. Bring some snacks along to keep energy up and get stuck into the canvas.

7. Tarot reading for beginners

From more risque readings like delving into the future of the bride's marriage to more lighthearted games, a tarot reading is anything but boring! A mix of theory, history and practical learning, this is a hens party activity for spiritual gals.
While these are only seven options to include in your hens party, we can help you plan your party. Most of our classes are mobile-friendly, meaning if you wanted help organising your own venue, we can help you. Just contact us for more details.
