Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to book a package, or can I just book one activity?
No pressure! Our packages are great value and super convenient, but if you're just after one standout activity, that’s totally fine too. We’re here to make the day work for you.
How do we get between the activities?
We’ve got you covered. If your plans include multiple locations, we can help coordinate transport or allow extra time between bookings. Some packages even include transfers – just ask!
I don’t have final numbers yet – can I still book?
Yes! You can lock in your booking with estimated numbers and finalise your guest list closer to the date. We’ll let you know when we need those final details.
Is someone from House of Hens there on the day?
You won’t see us in person, but we’re always just a phone call away. Your dedicated event coordinator will be on call to make sure everything goes smoothly behind the scenes.
Can we split the payments between the group?
Absolutely. Our secure platform lets each guest pay their share directly – no more chasing up money or awkward group chats. Easy, clear, and stress-free.
Is there a deadline to book?
There’s no strict cutoff, but the sooner you book, the more options you’ll have. Popular spots do fill quickly, so we recommend locking things in at least 8-10 weeks before your big day.
Can you help us organise accommodation?
Yes, we can! Whether you’re after something luxe and Instagram-worthy or fun and budget-friendly, we’ve got great options to suit all vibes. We can bundle accommodation into your package to keep everything easy and in one place.
Why would I book with House of Hens?
Because planning a hens should be fun – not stressful! We take care of the hard stuff so you can focus on the laughs and cocktails. From activity planning and accommodation to payments and on-the-day support, we’ve got your back. With years of experience, great supplier relationships, and a super friendly team, we know how to pull off a hens party everyone will be talking about for years to come.
