1. Stacey Solomon's Mediterranean Hen Party
We’re still not over Stacey Solomon’s wedding to Joe Swash - it was everything a botanical wedding should be - romantic, stylish and completely timeless. Ahead of their nuptials, Stacey embarked on two hen parties. The first was located somewhere ‘across the Mediterranean Sea’ and the second was hosted at Stacey and Joe’s home, Pickle Cottage in Essex.
For the first destination hen party, Stacey was photographed dressed as a giant pickle ahead of her flight at Gatwick airport. Throughout the weekend, Stacey shared a number of gorgeous pictures documenting the girly weekend.
Sparking concern for many of her fans, Mrs Hinch (AKA Sophie Hinchcliffe), one of Stacey’s celebrity bridesmaids was nowhere to be seen hen do. Quashing any rumours, Sophie reassured the public that her cousin had a hen do on the same weekend. She was, however, at Stacey’s UK hen party and played a big role in her wedding day.

4. Paris Hilton's Las Vegas Sten Party
Paris Hilton’s hen (or bachelorette) party was extravagant - but would you expect anything less? Paris and her now-husband Carter Reum had a joint sten party in Las Vegas, staying in one of the bedroom palaces in Resorts World Las Vegas where rooms start at $20,000 per night! This was clearly not a cheap hen do, no expense spared whatsoever.
The joint pre-wedding celebrations were very much a family affair with most of the Hilton clan joining the couple for a final pre-wedding night out. The journey was well documented, with Paris sharing videos of her private jet ride on Instagram. The joint do lasted several days and saw Paris’ mum Kathy Hilton embracing traditions and wearing a ‘Mother of the Bride’ sash on one of the nights.
We always thought a Barbie hen do would suit Paris, but we love the fact she did something with her partner instead!
