Some Fun Hen Night and Stag Do Costumes!

Hen Nights and Stag Do Costumes!

What's a hen night? Modelled after the traditional 'bachelor party', a 'hen party' or a 'hen night' is known to be an all female gathering for a bride-to-be, to reminisce on bachelorette days. The event is a fun occasion where attendees usually dress in different costumes and dresses, and participate in a number of games and forms of entertainment. Some hen nights include a dress theme, such as cowgirl themes, policewomen themes and several more.
Other hen nights are more traditional with a 'bridal shower' event, a few days before the wedding itself. In such an event, close friends of the bride-to-be would attend, have dinner and present gifts. Hen parties and bridal showers tend to be in a decorated event, with Hen Party banners and balloons used to design.

Stag do's are traditionally named 'bachelor parties' and occur in most western countries for a groom-to-be to enjoy his last few cheeky nights as a bachelor. Many forms of entertainment take place on such nights, for example, drinking contests, karaoke contests and pizza eating contests. Stag weekends have increasingly been held abroad by bachelors from the UK, with Krakow, Dublin and Riga being the favourite locations to hold a stag weekend. Similar to hen nights, stag do's are usually dress themed. Some unique themes may feature a 1930's gangster theme, a prisoner costumed theme, or even dressing up as farm animals!

Summer Hawaiian Parties


Aloha! Interested in having a Hawaiian themed summer party? Wondering how to go about hosting and throwing one? No worries. Hawaiian themed summer parties are perfect when the UK has its tropical weather. Party visitors can enjoy a warm evening with native Hawaiian music, food and surroundings. Try decorating a Hawaiian party with realistic decorations, for example, lifelike palm trees, coconuts and cutout hula girls. This can ensure a perfect environment for your guests to enjoy, making your evening more memorable!


Perhaps make the party theme even more detailed by using Hawaiian themed cutlery, plates or even Hawaiian paper cups. With this, the guests can enjoy a realistic and colourful party that you have planned so well. One thing to be sure of, is that the Hawaiian costumes must be immaculate! Therefore, a combination of traditional lei's and kauai bracelets, would be well equipped with a suitable tinsel skirt, to show how themed your fancy dress Hawaiian party really is! For men, why not try a native wooden bracelet or a men's lei to complete the perfect image?

Hawaiian themed parties will never bore you, as they have the potential to make everyone's night one to remember, with the fabulous costumes and the ideal decorations!

Picnics Are Back This Summer!

Picnic Season is Back!

Summer has finally arrived! We are ready to host our enjoyable family picnics or those peaceful and romantic picnics in the sun! By definition, a picnic is an outdoor meal which ideally takes place in a nice landscape in perfect weather conditions. People bring along pleasant snacks for picnics, including sandwiches, salads, finger foods, and breads, occasionally consumed with a glass or two of cool wine or luxurious champagne, or perhaps just some fruit squash. Of course, to appreciate such a pleasurable meal, one must be prepared for serving and storing foods. A few sets of equipment would be needed when having a picnic. Picnics ideally use lightweight, reusable and shatterproof tableware such as plastic bowls and plastic plates. Similarly, picnic cutlery tends to be lightweight and reusable, with them either being  a metal or a plastic cutlery set. These are essential items needed!

Some picnics require a cloth to be laid on the floor so a couple or a family can eat, however others feature on park benches, or on fold-up tables. In such an occasion, one must be prepared to either prepare a cloth for the ground or to prepare a table cover when hosting a picnic! We, at Party Tracker, hope you enjoy the summer in style, and have some fantastic picnics. Happy Summer!
