Yesterday I got to achieve one of my long held dreams – I got to model a toilet paper wedding dress at my friends hen’s party. For the uninitiated, a hen’s night is the equivalent of a bachelorette party, it’s just not as cool sounding. But that’s what we call it. The guy version is a Stag night, doesn’t that sound more fun?
Anyway, so we had the wonderful toilet paper wedding dress design competition and I got to be the model for it. Our design inspiration was big, puffy, 80s style dresses:
I think maybe I look like I’m enjoying being in a wedding dress too much here.
The lovely back view.
I was also a bit naughty and gave the bride a few useful things for her honeymoon, like cranberry juice and some other things that might help them with their goal of only having two children (the groom follows replacement theory, it was in quiz she had to answer about him).
But there were also a few treats for the night as well…. as shown above. And someone baked some really special cookies that I couldn’t quite bring myself to eat. 
For any guys who are reading this… the group also hit the town for dinner and dancing (I was too tired and poor to do this) so there was some actual fun in the day as well. Though actually making toilet paper wedding dresses is surprisingly enjoyable as well.
HA! I’d never heard of a Hen Party until I saw the movie- The Wedding Date. I want a Hen Party, but I also want a date. I guess we can’t have everything. HA!

I’d never heard of toilet paper wedding dresses until Grey’s Anatomy! Hen’s nights are usually really boozy and lewd events and have totally taken over from the kitchen tea type parties that were held until about ten years ago I think.
I like your attitude – a date would be nice alright!
Feel for me, gotta sit at a table full of couples on Saturday and avoid catching the bouquet…..
