Your West Midlands Wedding - Feb/Mar 2019 (Issue 60)

 INTERESTING IDEAS Are you a keen angler or pottery maker? Theme your hen or stag around your hobbies – after all it’s all about you and your pals will enjoy doing something you personally love. JOKE CENTRAL If you’re up for a laugh, head down to your local comedy club for a night of entertaining acts. We suggest: Glee, Birmingham (glee.co.uk/ birmingham) is sure to tickle your fancy – it’s popular with attendees and comedians alike. K KARAOKE TIME Are you destined to be a star? Channel your inner Beyoncé and showcase yours and your nearest and dearest’s talents by singing your hearts out. Going to the Chapel by The Dixie Chicks is a must! L LARGE GROUPS Don’t forget to book transportation for you all – party bus, anyone?! MARTINI O’CLOCK Enjoy a night of fun and cocktails with your friends – oh how very Sex in the City -esque of you. We suggest: The Night Owl, Birmingham (nightowlbirmingham. com) for the perfect mixes! NOTHING... but the best! Whatever you choose to do, just make sure you go out with a bang! O P PAMPER PARTY As going out on the town isn’t everyone’s idea of fun, you could ask your friends to join you for some R&R. You and your hens, or even stags, can receive treatments and learn every beauty secret you need to know for the big day. We suggest: The Belfry Hotel & Resort (thebelfry.co.uk ) for pre- wedding pampering aplenty. QUALITY TIME Remember that it’s not just friends your age who will want to celebrate with you, so take into account parents and older relatives – yes, we mean your grandparents too! N M RACING STRIPES One for taking chances? Why not visit the horses with friends and place a bet or two for fun? You never know, you might win a little extra for the wedding fund. We suggest: Warwickshire Racecourse (thejockeyclub.co.uk/warwick ) for an action- packed event. OH NO! If one of your guests hasn’t paid her deposit on time, don’t panic – I repeat, don’t panic! Just nudge them for it or ask, politely of course, if there’s a reason they haven’t paid yet – we’re sure it’ll be fixed in a jiffy. HEN & STAG 73
