Born from one real planning problem.
The Hen Planner did not start as a generic party shop. It started with someone trying to plan something better.
The Hen Planner began when its founder, an Irish accountant working in London, was helping plan a friend’s hen party and struggled to find ideas that felt stylish, personal, and genuinely useful.
So much of the hen party world online felt tacky and impersonal. What was missing was a place for the bridesmaids, maids of honour, planners, and friends who wanted the celebration to feel thoughtful and easier to pull together.
That idea became The Hen Planner: a home for better inspiration, practical planning help, beautiful details, games, gifts, and party pieces that felt a little more considered.
Your planning bestie, but make it useful.
Today, The Hen Planner helps take the chaos out of planning with curated products, digital tools, printable games, and genuinely useful resources for the people making the weekend happen.
We’re here for the ideas girl, the spreadsheet friend, and the one trying to pull everything together without losing her mind.
How the story unfolded
From one planning problem to over a decade of hen party history.
Our Beginning
The Hen Planner started after one too many hen parties with the same tired ideas. When the search for stylish, fun inspiration kept coming up empty, it felt like something was missing. So The Hen Planner was created as a place full of fresh ideas, thoughtful details, and inspiration that actually felt exciting to plan.
A Glow-Up Moment
2022 brought a glow-up. The Hen Planner was refreshed, updated, and given a more modern feel, making it easier and more enjoyable to use while keeping the fun at the heart of it.
A Quieter Chapter
Like many long-loved brands, The Hen Planner had a quieter chapter behind the scenes. The heart of the brand was still here, but the hen party world was changing quickly, and it became clear that The Hen Planner needed a stronger, more modern direction.
That quieter season helped shape what came next: a renewed focus on practical planning help, clearer resources, digital tools, and a more useful experience for the people actually organizing the celebration.
A New Chapter
In January 2026, The Hen Planner entered a new chapter with fresh ownership and a clearer mission: to rebuild this legacy brand into a modern planning destination for hen parties and bachelorette celebrations.
The focus is now on what planners need most: digital planning tools, printable games, curated party details, helpful guides, and resources that make the whole experience feel less overwhelming and more beautifully pulled together.
The Calm-in-the-Chaos Era
Right now, The Hen Planner is focused on making planning feel easier and more enjoyable, with thoughtful ideas and tools that fit around real life. And as things evolve, we’ll keep doing what we’ve always done best: showing up, listening, and helping you plan with confidence.
