Welcome to the Hen Night HQ blog

Just when thought you had run out of ways to embarrass the Hen, along comes a new opportunity to set her blushing - Hen Night HQ Mobile Phone Hen Night Dares!

No need to remember hen night cards, spinners or sheets of dares, just text HEN DARES to 60300 and you will receive 10 exciting, embarrasing and naughty-but-nice dares via text message on the big night out.

The dares are beamed into your phone ten minutes apart, giving the hen just enough time to complete each challenge before the next one arrives.

To start the dares, you just have to text HEN DARES to 60300.

The dares will start a minute after you've sent that message, so make sure the hen is ready!

You'll received 10 dares at a cost of 25p each on your mobile phone bill - making them more fun AND cheaper then buying a pack of hen night dare cards. And you never know what dare is coming next!

Residents in Edinburgh are all a flutter over hen and stag night parties, so much so that they're hoping to get them banned from the city (Edinburgh Stag And Hen Parties Could Be Banned In Crackdown)!

According to reports, residents in the city centre are launching a petition to enforce controls on landlords who rent out 'party flats' in the capital (Neighbours beg MSPs for crackdown on party flats), to cut down on 'anti-social behaviour'.

The Scottish Government seems unswayed by the complaints at the moment, but it's worth checking the current situation before you book, especially if you're thinking of renting a city centre property.

Do your bit to enforce good behavior on your hen night with this fabulous Fever Sexy Cop Dress, or make a heavenly impression with our bargain Angel Dress and Halo Costume.

Calling all brides-to-be. If you fancy a truly traditional wedding, then don't forget to don a blue dress and have a cake made of meat!

As The Mirror explains (The history of weddings: The first dress was blue and the cake made of meat!), it's actually Queen Victoria we have to thank for white wedding dresses, and diamond company De Beers for introducing engagement rings.

Rather than ditch your white dress, why not keep tradition with a sexy blue garter. As well as being perfect to show off in photos, you can also save it as a surprise for your groom.

You can share the ring fun with your guests too with these 12 Luxury Engagement Ring Decorations. Not quite De Beers, but eye-catching and a great conversation starter all the same!
