Are you a bridesmaid just about ready to send out that first hen party email? Wondering what to put in it and what tone it should take? 

I would keep the initial email fairly brief but friendly, make sure you put a relevant subject title, introduce who you are, say why you are emailing them, state the proposed dates for the hen do, as well as the location and may be a very rough outline of what you are going to be getting up to. Ask people to respond to you as soon as possible. And remember to stress which bits are to be kept secret from the bride to be!!

What about a hen party invitation in the style of a poem? I write bespoke hen party poems so do drop me a line to help@henpartyhelp.co.uk if you are interested in having a few rhyming verses written for the invitation.
