The Knot features ten of the best hens party companies and concepts throughout Australia
by Chelsea Tromans
It’s your last night out as a single girl, so make it count. Gather all your closest gal-pal friends and family and be prepared for a day, night or weekend of fun! We’ve found some of the greatest, most unique and non-stop fun hens parties around the nation – from chic through to wild - to ensure the occasion is memorable for all.
Benefit Pretty Parties
Every girl loves a makeover and what better way to spend your last outing as a single girl than with your nearest and dearest at a Benefit Pretty Party. The world’s ‘friskiest’ makeup brand with a candy store appeal has several packages to choose from. Our favourite is the ‘Girls Just Wanna Have Fun’ package where your evening will be filled with pampering and giggles. For two hours you and the girls will enjoy brow shaping, lash tinting and have your makeup done by the professional Benebabes. After all your lovely ladies have been made over, you are ready to hit the town and snap some picture-perfect photos to remember your special night.

Butlers in the Buff
Are you looking for a classy yet risqué option for your last night of singledom? Then the hunky Butlers in the Buff will add some spice to your night. Forget hiring a tacky and overpriced stripper, these boys know how to entertain while still keeping your evening elegant. And not only are these waiters gorgeous, but they’re also all really nice guys. The Butlers in the Buff can be on hand to greet your party on arrival, top up the bubbly, keep the food flowing, cook a BBQ, help out with any hens party games and most importantly, ensure the hen herself is having a blast. Available for booking across New South Wales, The Butlers in the Buff are able to come to your home or accompany you as you hop from bar to bar. Their uniform includes a tux collar and cuffs, apron, and not a whole lot more!

Hens Treasure Hunt
A hens party should be about having some fun and games with the girls. For an interactive day, embark upon a scavenger hunt and enjoy some healthy competition amongst your friends. Each team will be given a list of clues that will lead you to different locations. With challenges like who can take the best photo of two team members kissing a man in uniform, items to scavenge, questions to answer and gorgeous guys to interview and photograph, you will be in for a day of good, cheeky fun that every age will enjoy (even your mother-in-law). At the end of the day you will all meet up at a designated bar to compare photos, check answers, sip champagne, and choose a winner. Packages includes a hostess, treasure hunt kit, chocolates for bribery and corruption, great prizes and champagne.

The Artful Hen
A great way to spend your hens party is by taking a class. Not only will you learn a thing or two, but it’s a great way for everyone to mingle and let loose. Plus there’s sure to be plenty of giggles, especially when an art class is involved. The Artful Hen is a life drawing class (featuring a naked male model of course) that even the most novice artist will enjoy. Your hens night package includes drawing games, a fantastic model, all art materials, great professional studios with easels, a fun photo session with the model, and brilliant tutors. Champagne is also available to enjoy as you draw.

Hmm, it’s not really “10 Best Hen’s Parties in Australia” if only one of them is available in WA. More like “10 Best Hen’s Parties for Hens mostly based in NSW”

I see there is none for SA at all! I am engaged now, but I also do Hen’s Parties. I wok for a company called Positively Pink. I do adult parties with a buzz, showing plastic utensils that aren’t used in the kitchen and playing lots of fun games plus much, much more! Please contact me if you want to know more!

I went to “The Ultimate Hen” at The Mediterranean for my hens night. I wanted something more than just your standard strippers and boy did this deliver! We did life drawing, cocktail making, burlesque dancing & then had a few strippers (well you have to!) and the funniest drag queen. Definitely recommend it!

Im in Melbourne and my sister hired a bellydancer to come to our place and teach a workshop. It was a suprise for me and all the guests and a lot of fun

For me, it would have to be Hens Party Perth. I’ve been to a couple of parties run by this company (I think the hostesses are from Lady Cabaret Velvet) and I’ve always had a ton of fun! I’ve checked out their website and they’ve got a very wide selection of packages and from what I’ve heard from the party organisers, they are very reasonable price-wise too.
