Okay, so this Hen Party contest from Hen Party Games takes a tiny bit of forethought on behalf of the ladies but it’s worth every bit of time and effort. I’ve seen it get the conversation going the entire night. It’s also dead low cost and potentially loads of fun. The only disadvantage is that if you’re the one arranging the Bachelorette Party you will have to host and can’t be part of the fun.
Firstly you’ll have to chat with every one of the gals who’ll be attending (plus the hen herself) and tell them to give you five images. The simplest tool is to ask them to email you. This clearly means you’ll need some low cost photograph paper and a suitable computer printer. If this is a hassle then the classic snail mail is still an option, nevertheless I find that people are somehow more cautious about giving over the original copies.
Anyway the pictures you’ll need to have your hen party guests to send are;
1, A BABY PIC – A photo of themselves at the time they were a youngster. This is the standard version of the game, but we’ll put our own ‘hen do’ personality on it in a second. It’s a blast to see how unattractive some of your friends were when they were kids! OK, OK, all children are beautiful blah blah blah….
2, A CELEBRITY LOOK-A-LIKE – A picture of a high profile actress who they have been advised they look like. There’s lots of comedy value for you in this also when the bride’s Aunt Jessie delivers you a photo of Katie Perry and arrives at the party looking like Shrek.
3, THEIR FIRST KISS – It’s amusing reminiscing about the losers we loved and lost!
4, THEIR DREAM HUNK – Just as before this is more than likely a second celeb photo but it’s hilarious to see how some girls still opt for Gene Hackman instead of Justin Bieber.
And last of all (this one’s a bit more cheeky)…
5, THEIR PrRESENT MAN’S ASS! – I love love love this one. I’m frankly guffawing as I write thinking of the last time I played this. It’s invariably fascinating to discover how furry your best mate’s partner’s posterior is!
I can understand that not every person would feel happy with this one so you can adapt it anyway you prefer. The ladies can send a photo of their current man’s mouth. As a matter of fact it works with whatever body component you can imagine (ehem).
Anyway, your task now is to arrange these photos on five different boards. One for each group (one with all the toddler pictures stuck or pinned to it, one with all the celebrity doppelgangers etc). All the photos should be numbered.
You’ll also have to print out answer papers. These really need to have the groups along the top and the names of the guests along the left edge. You’ll need to have ample copies for one per guest.
Their job is to couple the photos with the appropriate lady.
The great thing with this particular Hen do contest is that you can always adapt it. If you do not like images of men from your past, do pictures of pets. The possibilities are limitless!
