We recently ran a fabulous fascinator making hen party class in West Lothian, near Edinburgh, for some lovely hens. The journey to the venue was hilarious with a rather unusual kind of traffic jam on the way when a herd of cows blocked the driveway to the house..! We arrived at the stunning self catering house that the hen party had rented and arrived to find the hens enjoying having their hair and make up done. The girls had decorated the house with bunting and prepared delicious cocktails to enjoy during the class. Hannah was joined by the newest member of the Arabella Bridal team, Rona, and we set the class up in the huge, bright, open plan dining area and living room. When we’d finished teaching them the basic techniques required to make fascinators, the girls got stuck straight into making their fascinators. As always, we were surprised and impressed at how creative they all were, and how different each of their fascinator were. Ranging from small, simple pastel coloured designs to large, vibrant statement hats, the hens did a great job of making their unique fascinators. We had a fun photoshoot at the end of the class and got some lovely pictures of them all. As we were leaving, the music was turned up, cocktails poured and the dancing had begun – we were very tempted to stay and join in! Thanks again to all the girls for booking with us and for being such good fun! xx...

Marnie and the rest of the hen party got stuck right in making all sorts of fascinators, from birdcage veils to a fabulous multicoloured creation with a little lilac lace train by Marnie’s daughter. A few of the girls got very creative and incorporated some pretty little crocheted butterflies that Marnie had decorated the table with – really cute! The workshop ended with an awesome lunch provided by caterers…and the dancing was just getting started just as we left…a fantastic morning! Thanks so much for the girls – we had such good...
