Those of us who live in the UK are more than used to rainy weather throughout the winter and, more annoyingly, throughout the summer! Therefore arranging outdoor stag dos and hen nights can become a bit of a nightmare – unless you manage to book it on one of the two days in the year when the sun is shining!

So where do you hold your stag dos and hen nights once the heavens open? Read on for a multitude of options…

Comedy Clubs

Everybody loves a good laugh so taking your party to a comedy night is perfect! Almost all comedy clubs now offer meals to accompany the evening’s entertainment so why not make a night of it and enjoy a few drinks, some food and some top class laughs with your best friends!

Pubs and Clubs

Visiting pubs and clubs is a stag do and hen night tradition! There are hundreds, if not thousands, of pubs and clubs throughout the UK and every city has a central hub of places providing good music with mass amounts of alcohol. Increasing amounts of theme clubs, such as 80’s and 90’s bars, are opening up so add a fancy dress theme to your stag do or hen night to make the evening even more entertaining!

Casinos

Fancy a flutter? Casinos are popping up everywhere it seems, so why not take advantage of this as an indoor stag do and hen party activity? Most casinos now provide top class food and have deals on certain nights. Just remember to set yourself a budget and don’t spend the entire wedding fund!

Lap Dancing

Ok, so this one is aimed more at the boys: alcohol and woman – is there anything else a guy could ask for?! Stay nice and dry whilst you enjoy some live entertainment; best not to tell the misses though!

Pampering Days

One for the ladies – why not be treated like a princess for the day and treat your ladies and yourself to a pampering day for your hen party. All the beauty treatments under the sun are available at most pampering retreats and you can relax whilst having a massage, getting your nails done, taking a dip in the pool or sipping cocktails!

Go Karting

If the weather is bad then you could always have your stag do or hen party at an indoor go karting track. Race against your mates and spice things up by offering a prize for the winner and a dare for the loser! On your marks, get set…GO!!

Indoor Paintballing

Bring out your inner marksman! Enjoy an indoor paintballing experience and see everyone’s best Rambo impressions – you will be surprised how competitive people get when trying to shoot you with a coloured ball! A word of warning though: leave long enough for the bruises to heal as you don’t want the wedding photos to look like the guests have been in the ring with Tyson!

As can be seen, there are a number of ways in which you can enjoy your stag do or hen night even if the weather isn’t looking too good. It is always possible to do a number of these activities in one weekend so if necessary you can enjoy yourselves whist staying completely dry – drink related wetness does not count!
