New Hen Party Emojis

If you’re a chief hen planner, or know somebody about to tie the knot, it might be about time you download this handy little emoji set…
Strictly for convenience sake.
Red 7 have created the world’s first stag and hen emojis, which means what goes on tour might not necessarily stay on tour once the WhatsApp group gets wifi.
Complete with ‘L’ plates, a mankini, as well as the ever so classy blow-up doll, the hen party pack just got accessorised for your online planning endeavours:
stag hen emoji
According to the creators:
“We noticed there weren't any emojis that summed up the time-honoured tradition of a hen or stag party. Frankly, we thought that just wasn't good enough.
“So we decided to make our own emojis to capture the typical antics you get up to on this wildest of nights with your mates."
For more information on how you can embed, share and download these handy little icons, click here.

Get Fit in 2016

So I am very aware that most peoples new years resolution is to get Fit, and its mine every year, although most years I never quite do it. (This year is defiantly going to be different now I have signed up for the Marathon)

With the Health & Fitness industry growing massively in 2015, it is looking to boom in 2016 and known to be the next trillion dollar industry.

So those of you ladies who are dedicated to your fitness but have a hen party coming up, I came across the below article which gives you a few ideas on how to do that.
http://www.webmd.boots.com/fitness-exercise/features/fitness-party-time

But here at Bijoux HQ, we have our own ideas:

Kick Start your hen weekend with a dance hen party.  Choose a high paced class like Charleston or Salsa and burn those calories while having fun.

Or if you want more of a relaxed environment, why don't you try our Vintage Hen Parties.  Have your Hair & Make up transferred to a vintage era, and then follow with a Pin Up Photo shoot.

Whatever your idea for the perfect hen party, please contact us on 01509 357751 or drop me an email on kaylie@bijouxhenparties.co.uk to discuss the specifics.
