Non traditional hen do ideas?

[bells2810]

I was wondering if anyone has any ideas for a hen do that doesn’t involve a night out/drinking. I don’t drink and I’m not one for big nights out and parties, I’m trying to think of an idea for my hen do that doesn’t involve drinking. I’m only going to ask my bridesmaids and a few close friends, so probably 10 people max.

Suggestions so far have been a spa day/afternoon tea, but I feel like these are things my friends and I would do for a birthday, I’m trying to think of something a little bit different but still a nice occasion and special. I also don’t want it to be too expensive!

If anyone has any suggestions I’d be very grateful 😊

I went bowling for my hen do! And then to the pub next door for tea.

Roller disco? Or lovely country Walk and special lunch after?

Pottery painting?
Baking - lots of cookery courses available and Champaign provided for those that drink.

Theatre or musical trip
Lesson in something unusual for you, e.g. sushi-making, off-roading, kayaking etc
Walking pub/cafe crawl in the countryside somewhere
Cycling tour of a cool city
Hire a boat (clutching at straws a bit here)
Hire a private chef for a lovely BBQ or dinner at home

Alton Towers

Hire a barge on the Norfolk broads

Axe throwing!

escape room?

life drawing?

Depending on when a surfing weekend

I've been to some ...

Escape room
Water park/outside water inflatables
Go ape
Crazy golf
Skating

Probably a normal day out to some but we all had fun and non of us were drunk at the end.

I and the bride's family arranged a bus tour of our home city taking in all the sights that meant something to the bride. For example, here's where xxxx was baptised, here's where she went to school, here's where her went on her first date etc etc. It was a hoot. Everyone joined in and pointed out significant places of their own. There was a piss up good night out as well. Not a plastic penis in sight!

Like you my daughter doesn't drink. She decided to have a matinee theatre trip and a meal out afterwards. Home by 9, she loved it!

Another vote for axe throwing. We did it for my friend's hen do. You are not allowed to drink while throwing. Much hilarity ensued
