Fascinator Making Hen Party Fun in Glasgow’s Hummingbird
Arabella Bridal’s lovely Danielle had a fab time running another fascinator making class in Glasgow. The afternoon session was with Lianne and her glamourous hens in the super cool Hummingbird. The girls had the use of their fabulous “Posh Room” for the class and got to work making some amazing pieces. The girls made a fantastic selection of individual and stylish fascinators. A few of the hens had brought along ideas: outfits that they wanted to compliment, or something they particularly liked – others were simply inspired by the materials and made something unique on the day. All the pieces that they made were lovely, lots of architectural shapes and bright summery colours. A huge success…the girls headed off for drinks in the evening sunshine, looking even more stylish in their new fascinators then they did when they arrived! Here are some photos of the lovely hens hard at work and showing off their hand made fascinators....
Read MoreFascinator Making Hen Party Workshop on the banks of Loch Tay
We had a FABULOUS afternoon on the banks of Loch Tay, half way between Killin and Aberfeldy last weekend, running a fascinator making class as part o Steph’s hen party. The ladies had rented a stunning house for the weekend, with views across the loch, and the sun was shining for the whole day. We ran the class in the beautiful conservatory overlooking the gardens and loch. The ladies had been busy baking a mountain of scrumptious cakes beforehand and so the adjoining kitchen was full of the delicious treats to fuel the class (I can now confirm that it’s very hard to concentrate on teaching a class when there are such yummy chocolatey smells drifting past your nose…!!) The girls (despite their claims of not being creative) made some beautiful pieces with an array of styles and colours. There was a lot of giggles and laughter during the class as they beavered away, and everyone managed to complete their pieces in the nick of time, before they headed off for their next activity of Highland Games (which was apparently going to include “Tossing the Haggis” – we want to see the photos from THAT!) Here are some photos of the lovely ladies and their creations. We can’t wait to go back so if anyone else fancies a Perthshire hen party – do let us know! xxxx...
Read MoreFascinator Making with a vintage twist!
Danielle had lots of fun at the gorgeous Butterfly and Pig tearooms again recently running another lovely Fascinator Making Workshop for a hen party. The setting was perfect for a quirky vintage class and we added a touch of vintage bunting to finish it off. The girls all made gorgeous fascinators with a vintage twist – choosing to include lots of lovely birdcage veils in their designs. Every fascinator was different and unique, and the girls were all delighted with the outcomes. The girls very kindly wrote to us afterwards to say: “Hi Hannah, I just wanted to write and say thank you and Danielle for the fascinator workshop, it was excellent! Everyone really enjoyed it and commented on how personable and helpful Danielle was.” So lovely of them – we love our job! Here are some pics of the afternoon, before the girls tucked into their delicious afternoon tea – the cakes at the Butterfly and Pig really are to die...
Read MoreLouise’s Hen Party Fascinator Making Workshop
A couple of weeks ago we ran another wonderful fascinator making workshop in Hemma in the centre of Edinburgh for the lovely Louise’s hen party. Louise arrived looking stunning having been made up by the very talented Miss Dixiebelle. As is so often the case, several of the girls looked terrified as Arabella Bridal’s Hannah explained what they were going to be making – many of them saying that they couldn’t sew and weren’t creative – but as usual, despite that, everyone produced amazing pieces and surprised themselves at what they had achieved! It was a great afternoon and both Hannah and Marie-Anne had a fabulous time with the ladies and were sad when it was all over! Thanks to Louise for allowing us to share some photos of her afternoon and the hens in...
Read MoreBecky’s fascinator making hen party in the Scottish Borders
Gorgeous countryside venue, sunshine, good food, plenty of bubbles, great company…and a fascinator making workshop. What more could a girl want??? That is just what the lovely Becky recently experienced for her fabulous hen party in the Scottish Borders. We never expected to have an outdoors class but whadya know – we were lucky enough to have glorious weather so we could hold the fascinator making class in teh lovely garden. It was the first time we’ve run one outdoors and it was brilliant!! The rain kindly held off until about 20 minutes from the end of the class so we all grabbed thw materials and made a dash into the house! The girls were all incredibly creative and made some fantastic designs. Here are a few pics from the day – we can’t wait for the next outdoor workshop so if you fancy it – just get in touch! Hen party fascinator making classes can be held in one of our Edinburgh venues including Hotel du Vin, the Bonham Hotel, the Howard Hotel, Hemma, Urban Angel or Norton House Hotel or at your own venue – whichever suits you best. As long as there’s enough table space that’s all we need really! All of our venues offer afternoon tea which can also be served with bubbles (which we find often helps with people’s creativity!!!) or various other drinks and snacks. We can also travel to other venues within Edinburgh or outside of Edinburgh. We also have four fabulous venues that we use for our hen party craft and fascinator making workshops in Glasgow – the Corinthian Club, Blythswood Square, Hummingbird and the Butterfly and Pig Tearooms and are happy to travel to self catering venues in other Scottish destinations. Packages can be tailor-made to make the class as simple or as extravagant as you like. The class can be themed to suit the hen party, we can adapt the class to make brooches or other accessories – it is really up to you! Discounts are offered for large groups, and for any booking for 12 more people, one person goes free! Get in touch for more information! ...
