What Are The Best Hen Do Ideas In Bristol?
We’ve put together a list of different activities that would be ideal for your hen do. They cover a range of locations and budgets, so you’re sure to find something that suits the entire group!
1. Velocity Paintball
While it’s one of the more intense activities for a hen do, paintball is great for team-building and will suit a group of close friends perfectly. Our huge 50-acre outdoor venue in Bristol is jam-packed with top of the range equipment and fun game zones. A combination of natural terrain and hand-crafted obstacles provide the perfect playground for a group of competitive bridesmaids. You’ll take part in up to seven games in a three hour period, with the opportunity to upgrade your equipment.
Why not make the game even more exciting and bring along some fun costumes for you and the other girls? Make the bride-to-be stand out with a stick-on veil for her helmet, a sash, or even a cheap wedding dress!

2. Bottomless Brunch
A classic day out for your group of friends, bottomless brunch is a chatty, relaxed way to celebrate the upcoming nuptials. It’s a less structured, familiar activity that takes the stress out of a hen do and makes sure everyone’s having fun. Time for a catch-up might also be useful if some members of the bridal party are meeting for the first time, allowing them to become more comfortable before the big day.
Go for a touch of elegance at the Cosy Club, or add a bit of spice to the day at The Botanist. There are a number of venue options available, so you’re sure to find something that suits your group.
3. Dance Experience
If drinking isn’t your thing or you want to pick up a new skill, a session at Dance Party Experience could be an amazing choice! Celebrate her putting a ring on it by dancing to some Beyonce hits, or venture into Bollywood moves and learn about a new culture. There are so many options for your hen do, no matter what personality your bridal party has. Each booking also comes with a free accessory that you all get to keep, adding a further touch of fun!
4. Chocolate Workshops
Satisfy the sweet tooth of each of your bridesmaids and head along to a chocolate workshop, like the ones available at Zara’s Chocolates. From making smooth chocolate truffles to moulding bespoke bars, there’s a range of classes you could take a look at for your hen do. You could even bring along these handmade treats on the morning of your wedding, reminding everyone of the amazing experience as they’re getting ready.
5. Afternoon Tea
Every bridal party is different, and the quiet, elegant environment of an afternoon tea might be perfect for you and your loved ones. Not only can you enjoy the classic finger foods and warm tea, but some venues, like No. 4 Clifton Village, might offer some bubbly on the side or mocktails for any non-drinkers. Activities such as afternoon tea are also a wonderful predecessor to a night-out or a great way to spend some time with the older members of your family before letting loose.
6. West Country Games
Your bridal party might have more energy than you know how to deal with, making West Country Games the ideal choice. With both indoor and outdoor obstacle courses, there will be something for all seasons. Unique ideas are a wonderful way to make your hen do memorable and a nearby glamping site can extend this fun across the entire weekend.
