18 Hen Party Decoration Ideas That Are Totally On Trend
Whether you’re the maid of honour, a bridesmaid, or the bride herself taking charge, finding the perfect hen party decoration ideas can be tricky.
You want it to feel classy, stylish, and memorable without going over the top or breaking the bank.
From rose gold themes to cute DIY touches, here are 18 trending hen party decoration ideas to help you create a stunning setup that the whole Team Hen will love.
Why Hen Party Decorations Matter?
Decorations are more than just “nice to have.” They set the mood, bring out the theme, and give everyone those Instagram-worthy moments. The right setup also helps make the bride feel celebrated and gives your group something to bond over, even before the hen party games and cocktails start flowing.
And whether you’re planning a one-night event or full hen weekend, these ideas work in both home setups and hired venues.
How to Choose the Right Hen Party Decorations
Before you start buying balloons in every colour you can find, take a breath. Think about:
- The bride’s personality – Classy or cheeky? Glam or chill?
- The location – Airbnb, garden, hotel room, or private bar?
- Budget – Some ideas are completely DIY-friendly.
- Theme – Are you doing a brunch? A pink party? A boho night?
