Today I’m a plane ride away, celebrating my friend Lynsey’s last weekend of freedom in the sun. Happy hen party honey!
.
I think that hen parties are such an important part of the whole wedding process. It’s lovely to have a proper send off with your best girls (who have often been around in your life for longer than your other half). From what I can remember (!) mine was such a fabulous affair – full of love, laughs and the odd L plate. Girly friendships are so important. Nurture them!
.
Grab another round of flirty martinis as I share some groovy hen party inspiration from around the blogosphere to share on the wedding blog this week. Party on!

Former lawyer and bride to be Julia founded Brides Up North in 2010 with a chip on her shoulder. Frustrated by the poor Northern presence in glossy bridal magazines and online, she decided to do something about it herself.
Astounded by the rapid growth of her blog and brand, Julia now manages Brides Up North’s online content alongside their busy wedding exhibition season, industry events and related commissions. And she’s always, always, got a new project on the go…
