    I've been asked to organise a hen night for a non drinker. She has no issue with drink, just doesn't. She's not into pubs or nightclubs so I need suggestions.
    She's not sporty so I'm thinking of organising a spa day, then dinner. It's just after that what to do. It's her night so I want to make sure she enjoys it but I don't want everyone else to be bored.
    Please help!

    What does she want to do?

    Just go for the spa and the meal and then home...?
    (Sounds good to me, and I'm a drinker)

    Sounds perfect to me too and I'm not a drinker!

    No need for anything after the dinner at all!

    One of my sister in law's had afternoon tea in a really nice hotel for her hen, could not be there but have had afternoon tea subsequently - it is something else.

    Hi there,

    My sis in law is the same so we went to the Castleknock Country Hotel. Drove there Sat morning, all had therapy treatments then afternoon tea; scones, clotted cream etc! Then all to the pool/sauna. That night lovely dinner, toast to her with fizzy nonalcoholic something or other!

    That night, drinks in the bar in the hotel, cocktails mostly (non alcoholic for her!) Next morning, nice breakfast another swim and then back to mine to meet brother and family for a bbq! Great weekend, suited her and we gave her a "memory book" to make it about her rather than a spa weekend for the girls!

    Enjoy x

    Hiya

    I recently had my hen night in the Price of Wales hotel in Athlone, and although we did the cocktail making class which was great craic, they have a range of options that would suit a non drinker which sound like great fun. At least I think so!

    Here's a link
    http://www.theprinceofwales.ie/hen-weekends-athlone
    You can book a No.7 & 17 makeup masterclass with the Prince Bar that is run by Boots Professionals. Classes will take place for an hour & a half in the Prince Bar ,with full instructions on makeup application, product information, skincare & q&as from No.7 consultants Ashyln & Amy or Melissa & Cindy for boots Self Selection range (all other makeup brands boots sell including the 17 range). These Boots professionals have been trained to the highest standard both in Skincare & cosmetics & are regularly sent on training courses to the UK to keep them up to date with the latest products.
    This is priced @ €150 total, A maximum of 15 people per course so its only €10 per person.
    We can also arrange for a Boat trip on the river Shannon there are three great options, The River Run which has proved very popular will all past hen parties. Also there is the Viking Boat or an exhilarating powerboat ride on the Baracuda.

    Salsa Dancing can also be arranged for your group on request

    Super Slumber Party

    We can arrange a Super Slumber party for the 1st night of your hen weekend were we can turn the function room into your own personal cinema for all your closest family and friends. We will play your favourite chick flick on the screen, sit back and relax with popcorn, chocolates, champagne and all in your own private area. Why not really splash out and hire your own personal barman for the night.

    Yes Afternoon Tea is lovely!!! Knightsbridge in Trim do a fabulous one - sandwiches, scones, pastries etc all on a 3 plate stand, tea & coffee etc. Very enjoyable!
