Hens Night Help (pretty please!)

OK so my sis is getting married mid March, the Hens Night being 28 Feb and I'm organising the whole thing (one other BM being in Aus, the other just being useless )

We are starting out at an Indian Restaurant at 8pm then I guess we'll do the town/dare thing or whatever. I have a few ideas but nothing concrete.

What I would love is some ideas of what to do and also some help with finding some things if you know of where to go for them So here's what we have so far...

We'll do a quiz (will quiz the DF first) about the partner, and for each one she gets wrong she drinks (should be drunk pretty quick I reckon!). I also want a task list for later on but she did it for me so am trying to find some original ones, not like the ones EVERY hens night seems to have IYKWIM. I found one about finding the male alternatives to the Spice Girls - classic!

She doesn't want strippers, or to do karaoke, and doesn't want to spend 'all night in town' but wants to be in town. Difficult much?!

Also, I want to make her a sash saying Future Mrs X on it (can't find anyone that does personalised sashes - don't want a top as she did something similar for me) and thought about making one and then doing iron-on transfers. BUT... the only paper I found is in packs of 10 sheets for $40! Any ideas? Does anyone sell letters of the alphabet or anything like that so I can just order what I need?

AND.... last but not least (for now anyway), I want something that all of us can have that will distinguish ourselves in a crowd. For my hens night we had glowstick bracelets and flashing things around our necks, I want something glow in the dark as I think its a great idea but don't want to copy what she did for me?

Any ideas would be appreciated! TIA

Emz, my bridesmaid got everyone light up devil horns and I had a little halo thing - was quite a laugh, as everyone commented when we were out...

I think there's some people on TM who do sashes for Hen's parties. Also MarthaStewart.com has some games in the weddings section. You know Martha would never associate with strippers lol!

We had pink feather things for around our necks, and tiaras I think. Not my thing but I guess we stood out.
I had a tshirt I had to wear and all my dares were on that. Once I got into town a lot of people were quite interested in reading what I still had "left" to do on my shirt. They just wrote on it in vivid.

My bridesmaid did the quiz thing for me and I loved it. We also made p*nises from playdough which was great after a few drinks.

i got the quiz thingy done to me it is fab..

My BM just got everyone to where purple my fav colour - so everyone had a purple top on

you should go have a look at peaches and cream down colombo st i think it is. they used to have heaps of stuff that would be suitable for hens nights (and no I havent been in there for anything other than jokey type things!!!!!!)

welllll, we went to the Den on K'Rd to look for props, found a few , but mostly found a shop assistant eager to show us their wide range of vibrators and butt plugs (whatever the heck that is)

her actual hens night, we had dinner at Midnight Express, turkish food, was lovely , then we went back to my mates apartment where we drank (well not me ) and had dessert etc, played games, eg, pin the penis on the man (we got that from the den ) played a trick on bride to be , dressed bride to be in tutu, sash , etc and went to town , where she managed to complete all the dares (quite impressive, shes quite gutsy when shes drunk!)

I have to share the trick we played on her , she was very very adamant that she didnt want a stripper, but , years ago she had confessed to us that she thought Ron Weasley from Harry Potter movies was hot , so , we printed off a pic of Ron's face, stuck it on a balloon , and put the balloon on a stuffed body ,made of boys clothes and newspaper .
Then we blind folded her, sat her in the middle of the room , turned "Buttons " by the Pussy cat dolls on and knocked on the door, she FREAKED out , after tormenting her for about 2 minutes we took her blindfold off, seeing Ron she laughed so hard she fell off the chair , was priceless.
we then made her take Ron everywhere with us that night, the bouncers thought it was hilarious .

You could also try looking at the Pole Dancing club in Christchurch where they give lessons. It's apparently great fun for a hens night and they specifically cater for them. Website address is www.pole.co.nz for the info.

I was going to go there when organising a hens night but the bride had just had a knee operation so we couldn't do it which was a shame. Would be something a bit different to do while you're in town but it is a little more expensive for everyone.

Oh! I also meant to mention a funny hens night stunt I saw on the weddings website when I was a regular there ... one of the girls had to go to Hell Pizza (Syn) in central Wellington dressed in a towel (she was actually wearing boxers and a boob tube underneath I think) and order a meal to take out. Photos were VERY funny
