STAG AND HEN WEEKEND ADVICE

How To Plan The Most Awesome Stag or Hen  Weekend Ever!

So you have probably known him or her since childhood, you know his/her good points and of course ALL of their bad, you ARE the best man or maid of honour and you have been given the massive responsibility of organising his/her stg or hen  weekend … feeling the pressure? Don’t sweat here are Pink Monkey Stag and Hen Ltd guide to organising the best stag or hen weekend humanly possible.

Plan, Plan, Plan

Sounds obvious but ask the stag or hen what kind of weekend they are looking for, a party central location like Albufeira or something more civilised and mature like a stag or hen weekend in Lisbon. How many people do they want to invite and what is the estimated cost per head.

Guestlist

It is better to invite good friends, those on the same level as you and the stag or hen, leave out the work colleagues who they drink with occasionally and definitely forget the acquaintances. By inviting your “close” mates you will ensure your weekend is everything the stag or hen wants it to be.

Cash, Cash, Cash

The activities you plan on your stag or hen  weekend will make or break the weekend. Why waste money on expensive activities when something simple like a surfing stag weekend or spa hen weekend will suffice.

Date

Decide on a date, the weekend should be close to the wedding date but not so close to create “problems”, ideally 5 to 6 weeks before the big day is your best option.

Choosing a company or going it alone

Remember you have to organise flights, transfers, accommodation, activities, transfers to and from activities, meals, bars, strippers that’s a lot of responsibility on your shoulders. Let Pink Monkey Stag and Hen Ltd organise everything on your behalf, we do all the hard work for you, YOU take all of the credit.

Money, Money, Money

The stag or hen  weekend has to be paid for and you will be responsible for chasing the money from the lads and ladies, why not ask the most responsible within the stag or hen group to chase payments or allow a company like Pink Monkey Stag and Hen Ltd to chase the final payments from the lads or ladies on your behalf.

Boring Stuff

When coming abroad to your Lisbon stag weekend or Albufeira hen weekend remember the guys and gals needs to bring their passports and arrange travel insurance, better to be safe than sorry!

TESTIMONIALS

Stag Activities : Lisbon

It was a real pleasure dealing with Pink Monkey; they were so helpful, quick to respond and accommodating of my late requests and questions. I only used them for part of the stag do and booked some activities directly but for peace of mind I’d recommend using them for everything.

Hen Activities : Lisbon

I cannot recommend pink monkey stag and hen company enough! I booked activities for a close friends hen do, being her maid of honour I wanted to impress, pink monkey not only took the pressure off me but also gave some amazing ideas.
There was 14 of us in total and I booked the cocktail making master class In alberfuria – it was worth way more than what it cost, we each received 3 cocktails each, countless shots and more alcohol upon request, the bar staff and others went above and beyond and make us feel so at ease – we became like old friends catching up ! The bride to be couldn’t stop saying what a wonderful night it was, I like the fact we all each had a go behind the bar ! It was straight forward booking with pink monkey, they took details of our hotel and found a bar as close to us as possible. I literally walked into the bar and was greeted on first name terms.
I also booked a stripper, I was kept well informed and I was contacted by the man himself as he arrived, he was accommodating and read the situation well (the bride was slightly tense and embarrest ) he tried to put her at ease!
I honestly can’t recommend pink monkey if your booking for a stag or hen do they do all the work, they keep you well informed and try best to suit all your needs (I wanted to change the time of cocktail making very last minute and they sorted it immediately)
Can’t thank you enough ! We had a very remembable hen weekend – thanks again pink monkey for your professionalism and accommodating work ethic !

Hen Activities : Lisbon

From the very start of my booking with this company, they have been so helpful! everything was very well organised, and email responses to my queries were very quick. i only booked one activity with this company but everything ran very smoothly and went as planned.
the life drawing class was so much fun and the host was very friendly and made everyone feel comfortable. he was very fun and everyone said how lovely he was.

I would recommend this company for booking activities and parts of their stay in Lisbon as they really look the pressure off of me by sorting it out for me.

thank you!

Party: Burlesque Location: Albufeira
The lesson was brilliant, Claire was really friendly and obviously knew her stuff. Everyone in the group had a fantastic time.

Obviously their comments of me organising an “awesome”, “brilliant”, “truly memorable” stag do could not have been done without your massive contribution. From my perspective you helped make things run really smoothly.

Thank you for a cracking trip. The boys all had a great time, it covered our every need, and it worked out to be great value for money. -Thanks again, have a great summer.

Absolutely brilliant from the first second. There was no waiting around. transfers were always waiting for us. Claire is a damn hero! In summary, I have organised 4 stag do’s and this was by far the best. The activities were great, the admin. was very easy and Claire sorted everything out without the slightest fuss. Really, Really good. Thank you PinkMonkey, you made me look awesome!

Activities Experience – Excellent Venue – Excellent

Accommodation – Excellent
Would you recommend Pink Monkey? – Yes

Excellent afternoon, everyone really enjoyed it would recommend it to anyone!

It was brilliant thanks so much for all your help if anyone asks me i will point them your way singing your praises! Thanks again.

Saturday night’s meal was awesome, I’m not sure I’ve had a more tender, melt in your mouth, steak before, everyone couldn’t quite believe that we could choose from pretty much the whole menu and what great quality the food was, as well as having the drink on top, the restaurant staff were really friendly as well, which isn’t often the case when you get a large group of lads in one place.

The accommodation, compared to other stag do’s I’ve been on was 5 star. Especially with the indoor pool and games room that kept us entertained for the quiet points of the days. All in all I would definitely recommend Pink Monkey to anyone that I know who is organising a stag or hen weekend. In terms of value for money I would say it was worth every penny!!!

I just wanted to send a last message to say thank you so much for teaching out hen party dance lesson. It absolutely exceeded all my expectations! The girls haven’t stopped saying how fabulous it was, we all had such fun.

It was great! I’m not sure what the full-on “burlesque” dance class would have been, but for our hen weekend the Candyman class was perfect. Not too full-on for those girls who were a little more shy, but lots of opportunity to wiggle and have a laugh for everyone involved. And not too overly-energetic either, so a great balance! Rowena was also lovely – got the tone completely right for us all. And the chocolate muffins and present for the hen were a very sweet touch.
