Getting into the team colours can be both fun and beneficial on a Hen Night.

Most women don't need an excuse to pull out every lotion, potion and product they own to prepare for a party and it's our duty as beautiful, sexy girls to show the world how it's done because, after all, playing dress up is what we do best.

A theme can also be a safe way to ensure that a party that heads out together stays together; a 'man down' is hard to miss if she's dressed as a giant bumble bee.

The mates, the booze, the inappropriate goss about that time the bride went down on her ex during Phantom Menace... What's not to love about Hen Nights?

Darling, there's plenty. It is traditional for a bride to wake up the day after her hen night wondering if her boyfriend/mother/boss/mother/mother will ever speak to her again. That's if she can wonder anything at all through the blinding agony of a red wine and Bacardi hangover.

Avoid messing up the entire rest of your life by sticking to our hen night survival rules. Do not just commit these rules to memory. Print them out, blow them up (size, not explosives) and make washable, sickproof laminates for every hen. Disregard at your peril.

Blagged a free drink? Snogged your way through the alphabet? Blown a banana? It's dare time!

Dares are almost as essential to a good hen night as a stack of booze and at least one girl who's getting married soon. Most of our favourite games can be spiced up with a sprinkling of forfeits and dares - or you could just do dares and sod the games.

Before you allow any Pinot Grigio to pass your lips, make a list of dares that you can consult at a later, more mullered stage of the evening or weekend. Allow us to get the ball rolling...
