Before the wedding, the bride has a lot on her mind – wedding dress and accessories, catering, flowers, wedding cake, guest list, invitations, rings… The hen party is therefore a good time for her to take a breather and have a good time with her closest friends. How to organise a hen party at Mystery Machinery? Who should be the organiser? Who bears the cost of such an event? What does one do at a hen party?
According to tradition, the witness is responsible for organising the hen party. She is the one who should invite all the guests and develop a plan for the event.
As for the cost, unfortunately, it will not be small. According to the rule: “the one who invites, pays the bill” it is the witness who bears all the costs of the hen party. However, this practice is slowly becoming a thing of the past, and is being replaced by the contribution option – the witness and guests contribute to cover the cost of the event.
In order to determine the amount of such a contribution, it is necessary to determine the budget for such a party. For this, you will need to select a venue. There are plenty of ideas where this type of event can be held: club, cafe, hotel, pub, restaurant, entertainment centre…
The venue of the hen party will host all the attractions that the participants will get to experience and thus it will be able to implement the entire plan of the event. Among the most popular are:
If the bride, witness and invited friends prefer the latter option, a hen party at Mystery Machinery would be an excellent choice. A very popular form of entertainment in recent years are escape rooms – styled after the X-Files, Laboratory, Cave of the Shinobi Master, Dwarf Brewery… On the other hand, if the bride, witness or other invited women are not in the mood for deciphering puzzles, an alternative is the Laser Tag Arena. This is laser paintball dedicated to lovers of tactical games and so-called “shooters”. Another very good option for spending time is the VR arena, a virtual reality game that players are transported to via wireless HTC Vive Focus 3 goggles.
Of course, the question of refreshments is very important – this, too, must be taken care of when organising a bachelorette party at Mystery Machinery. MM includes a food and beverage area, offering a large number of bar foods and both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages.
Escape Room, billiards, or laser paintball are not standard suggestions for a hen party, but who said that such an event must follow the usual patterns? The most important thing is the good mood of the bride, the witness, and the other participants of the event, and the beautiful memories that will be created during the evening!
Give the gift of fun and time spent with friends. At Mystery Machinery you can buy a voucher (gift card) for a game for any number of people, in any room (30 or 60 minute rooms), for a game of Laser Tag (30 or 60 minutes) or for a VR (Virtual Reality) game.
Players are tasked with solving logic and dexterity puzzles to get out of the room where the Game takes place. Players have a set amount of time to complete all tasks (60min. or 30 min. depending on the Game chosen). Before the game begins, the Game Master, gives the players the necessary instructions and guidelines on the tasks that await them in the selected room. At any time during the Game, players have the opportunity to contact the Game Master and leave the room if necessary.
This is a Laser paintball type game. Players are divided into teams that compete against each other to achieve the goal set in the chosen scenario. The goal of the game is to shoot down Players from the opposing team or to complete a task, such as occupying the opposing team’s base. Laser paintball, unlike classic paintball, is painless. After the game, only the memory of fun remains, not bruises. Only a beam of light is used for shooting, which is registered by special sensors placed on players’ vests. Before the start of the game, players will be given a briefing. The Game Master will issue weapons, vests and hand over the combat task to be completed for the teams.
The virtual reality arena is a space where you have the opportunity to move into a world of virtual experiences. The arena has gaming stations players, equipped with a computer, wireless goggles and pads. Before the game, the Game Master gives an initial briefing, where they explain how to operate the goggles and control pads connected to them, and help choose the right game for both the age and skill of the players. After instruction, the players launch the selected game, which usually lasts 60 minutes or 30 minutes. The Game Master is constantly present at the arena to observe player actions and reactions – allowing them to answer questions and address the needs of players.
Laser Maze is a game that takes place in a special room with laser beams and special buttons. The Player’s task is to take on the role of a burglar and nimbly overcome all the laser obstacles, and then return to the starting place by overcoming the same path of light obstacles.
