Real blooms, still a little dewy, and the prettiest version on the day. Fresh is the one made for photos: soft petals, bright colour and that just-picked look. How long it lasts is just below.

“Our night flowed really well, no stuffing around and most importantly I got to actually enjoy my friends hens instead of playing event manager all night because everything had already been thought through. The timing, what was included, where we'd go next, what suited the 9 girls we had and honestly, I didn't properly realise how much difference that would make until the actual night itself. It felt like a proper event rather than us just meeting at a few places Han loved every part of it and even said how did you do and find all this?? So that was the review from her I needed and I would use them again in a heartbeat!”
Jess Mitchelson-Hall, Google review
That’s the bit we love most: the girl who organised it, actually at the party, and the bride asking how on earth she pulled it off. More from real hens
01 the table of blooms
What happens at a flower crown hens party
The thing they make becomes the look of the day they share.
A flower crown hens party with My Ultimate Hens is your crew around one table of blooms, everyone making a crown to wear out the door, with the rest of the bride’s day planned around it; our packages are in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, the Gold Coast, Perth and Adelaide.
Most of us don’t spend an ordinary afternoon choosing flowers to wear in our hair. That’s exactly why it works. Everyone has something lovely to do with her hands, something easy to talk about with the girl beside her, and by the end, a crown she made herself. Then the crowns go on, and suddenly you can tell from across the room whose hens this is.
Someone reaches over to straighten the bride’s crown. Another girl opens her front camera so she can see it. Suddenly everyone wants a photo together.
Every flower crown hens, right about now
Before anyone arrives
A table that looks like a garden
Buckets of blooms, greenery and ribbon, laid out and waiting. All she has to do is walk in.
The first five minutes
Everyone swears she isn’t crafty
Then they start choosing. Roses or gerberas, blush or bright, one big bloom or lots of little ones. Which one feels most like her?
The first twist
Your host shows how it comes together
Your My Ultimate Hens workshop host shows the first twist of wire and ribbon, then stays close for the fiddly bits.
Heads down, hands busy
The stories start
The girl from work and the girl from school both went straight for the pink ones, and now they’ve got plenty to talk about.
Halfway through
A verdict from across the table
Crowns get held up for opinions. She came for the bride. She now has quite a few opinions about these flowers.
Crowns on
The reveal
One by one, the crowns go on. Someone straightens the bride’s, and the whole table turns to look at her.
Then
The photo with everyone in it
Arms round each other, glasses up. Hand the phone over so you’re in it too.
After
Out the door, still wearing them
The flowers are coming with you: to the rooftop, the long lunch or the dance floor, whatever the rest of her hens looks like.
And you? You booked one thing, then sat down and made a crown like everyone else.
02 pick your blooms
Ways to do a flower crown hens party
Nine ways to do your hens flower crowns, from dewy and fresh to a crown that never wilts. Tap the one that’s her and we’ll keep it in mind when you tell us about her.
A little boho
Dried and everlasting flower crowns
Softer colours, sunset tones and everlasting blooms, with a crown that keeps long after the day. The bride who loves a boho look, or wants something to hang in the wardrobe after the wedding, will be all over this one.
Built to party
Faux flower crowns that never wilt
Faux blooms that survive the dance floor, the hotel floor and the flight home. Brilliant for a hens weekend, a summer afternoon, or the bride who’d love to wear hers again.
Pyjamas welcome
A flower crown workshop at your place
A mobile flower crown workshop: the blooms and the ribbon come to where you’re staying, at home or at our own accommodation on her hens weekend. A make your own flower crown party where nobody has to leave the pyjamas behind until dinner.
Help yourself
A flower crown bar
Blooms laid out like a buffet, ribbon by the reel, and everyone building her own. The table looks so good that someone always photographs it before a single stem is touched.
Pinkies up
Flower crowns and high tea
Make the crowns, then wear them to the tiered stands. Flowers in your hair, a scone in your hand and the prettiest table in town.
Just for her
The bride’s crown, and a veil if she wants one
White blooms or her wedding colours, and a short veil tucked behind it for the photos if she’s game. It makes a lovely little practice run for her wedding-day hair, too.
Dancing queen
Mamma Mia flower crowns
White linen, white blooms and Dancing Queen on repeat. A Mamma Mia hens was always going to end in flower crowns, and the group photo looks like a postcard from a Greek island.
Something to keep
Rather make a bouquet, a posy or a moon wreath?
The same table of flowers, a different thing to take home: a posy, a hand-tied bouquet, or a crescent moon wreath of dried flowers to hang on her door.
Swipe for all nine on a phone.
03 keep it blooming
Fresh, dried or faux: how long a flower crown lasts
Will it make it to midnight? With a little love, it usually does.
A fresh flower crown usually looks its best on the day and lasts the night if it’s kept cool and out of the sun, then starts to wilt within a day or two. Dried and faux crowns keep for a long time.
The making itself usually takes around two hours at the flower table, so there’s time to choose, change your mind, finish the fiddly bits and still get the photo before the next stop.
Fresh
The prettiest on the day. Made for the photos, the toasts and the night out.
Dried
Softer and a little boho. Keeps for months on a shelf or a hook.
Faux
Never wilts. Survives the dance floor and the suitcase.
Keep a fresh crown alive until midnight
- A light mist. A quick spritz of water over the petals between venues perks it right up.
- Fridge, not freezer. Heading home to get changed? Pop it in the fridge in a box or a paper bag.
- Out of the sun. Wear it proudly, then rest it in the shade when you sit down for lunch.
- Never on the dashboard. A hot car is the one thing a crown won’t forgive. Off the head, onto a lap.
04 who’s at the table
Who a flower crown hens party suits
Different friends, different tastes, one table of flowers.
The bride who loves soft and pretty
She’d happily put flowers in her hair just because. This is the hens that looks exactly like her.
Mum, the aunties and her nan
Mum will be first to the flower table, and her nan will have a bloom tucked behind one ear before anyone’s finished. Every age makes a crown, and every age looks good in one.
The pregnant bride, or the friends who aren’t drinking
The making is the point, so nobody misses a thing. A crown on her head looks just as good in the photo, whatever’s in her glass.
The friend who swears she can’t do art
She’ll tell everyone she isn’t crafty. She’ll also make the best crown in the room, with your host there for the fiddly bits.
A daytime start before a big night
Crowns at two, the dance floor by nine. The flowers make the whole night look like a hens, from the first toast to the last song.
Hay fever or allergies at the table?
Tell us about anyone with hay fever or allergies so we know before the day. Faux and dried crowns are lovely too.

What a flower crown hens party costs
The package is the magic.
Our flower crown hens packages usually sit around $150 to $250 per person. Our flower crown workshop comes inside a hens package with the day built around it, so the price covers the whole celebration, not just the flowers.
What moves it: her city, what comes before and after the crowns (a high tea, a cocktail, a rooftop, dinner or a night out) and whether you make a weekend of it.
A flower crown hens for her: a table of blooms, a crown each, and the whole day built around it. Our flower crown hens packages usually sit around $150 to $250 per person.
With us, the table is covered in flowers before she walks in, your host is there for every twist of ribbon, and the next stop is already lined up for when the crowns go on.

06 the finishing touch
What to wear with a flower crown
The best part of the outfit is the bit you make together.
The bride
White, the one different colour at the table. Her crown can be the fullest one there, in white blooms or her wedding colours, with a short veil if she’s game.
The girls
One colour together, pastels, florals or white linen for a Mamma Mia hens. Keep the jewellery simple and let the crown do the talking.
Hair, and the practical bit
Loose waves or a low bun sit beautifully under a crown, and a braid looks gorgeous round a half crown. Bring bobby pins, shoes you can stand in for the group photo, and a layer for the rooftop later.
Copy a dress code into the group chat
Garden party: florals and pastels, flowers in our hair. The bride wears white.
One colour together: everyone in blush pink, the bride in white in the middle of the photo.
Mamma Mia: white linen and denim, a crown of white blooms. Dancing shoes for later.
Boho: earthy tones, flowing dresses, a dried flower crown. The bride in cream lace.
Building the whole look around flowers? See the floral hens party theme, and for every other kind of hens, what to wear to a hens night.
07 make it hers
Pick her colours, see her crown
Choose her colours, add her name, and save her crown card for the group chat or the table.
Her colours
Think blush roses and baby’s breath. In the old language of flowers, that’s love, and forever.
Print it for the table, send it to the bridesmaids, or make it the group chat photo.
08 group chat, meet group photo
The flower crown photos everyone wants
Five shots worth clearing the camera roll for, with a caption ready for each.
The reveal
On three, every crown goes on at once. Then the bride puts hers on, and every phone is pointed at her.
Crowned by popular demand.
Hands and flowers, from above
Stand on a chair (carefully) and shoot straight down over the table: hands, ribbon, blooms and half-made crowns.
Petal power.
The line-up
Every girl in a row, shortest crown to tallest, the bride in the middle.
Every crown a little different. Very clearly her girls.
Her in the middle
The bride in her crown, and her veil if she’s wearing one, with her girls gathered close behind her.
Her favourite people, in full bloom.
Out the door
Crowns still on, walking into the next part of her hens. Then hand the phone over so you’re in one too.
This crown has plans.

A few favourites from our crews. One booking, and a day that flows.
Afternoon into evening
Crowns, then the rooftop
A crown each at the flower table, then a short stroll up to a rooftop with the crowns still on, for a glass of bubbly and plates to share as the afternoon turns gold.
The whole day
Brunch by the water, then blooms

Pretty, then cheeky
Crowns, tapas and a topless waiter
Bubbles while the crowns come together, then tapas in a pink-lit booth and a VIP booth where your topless waiter takes over the pouring. A whole table of flower crowns in that light is a hens photo before anyone writes the caption.

“We booked a package with My Ultimate Hens for my friend's hens weekend. I initially heard about this company from another hens night I was at, with a friend, and it exceeded expectations. The itinerary was well thought out, the venues were great, and the transitions between each activity were seamless. It really felt like a premium, well-organised experience from start to finish. Highly, highly recommend!”

Our flower crown workshops usually run for around two hours, then the day carries on to whatever’s next.
