hen parties
Pre-wedding girl gatherings
Hen parties are pre-wedding celebrations for a bride-to-be, organized by female friends.
The British equivalent of American bachelorette parties, they typically involve a night out, drinking, and activities ranging from spa days to pub crawls.
The name comes from hen as slang for woman, contrasting with stag parties for grooms: We're planning a hen party in Brighton.
