If you've got a wedding on the cards, then there's some serious planning to do - and that's only the hen do outfits. Not only have you got to book your venue, order your cake and find your dream wedding dress. But, you also have to put together a showstopping hen do outfit that will wow all of your guests in attendance. That requires some serious outfit planning.

Are you going for a spa day? Having a girls night in? Or maybe you've got a fun-filled staycation or even a trip to warmer climates. No matter the plans, we've found the hen-do outfits that are perfect for the bride-to-be. And, although the hen do outfit doesn't always have to be white, it does distinguish the bride from her entourage.

While most traditional wedding dresses are long, a hen do is the time to play around with different styles you may not have picked for the big day. We have searched the internet to find you the best hen-do outfits available from the high street.

From some stand-out pieces from Zara, to dresses from Arket, we can guarantee you'll find your dream hen-do party outfit ready to celebrate your special day. Then, there's only the 'day before the wedding' dress to consider. Shop our edit below.
