who usually pays for all the stuff for a hen night= i.e. a limo/car to get there/sashes/shot glasses etc?? :/ seems to be me...is this correct?? Don't wanna be buying stuff if it's not down to me

I think normally people pay for themselves. Or if your maid of honour/bridesmaids are organising it sometimes it's organised so everyone pays a bit extra to cover your costs. We didn't do this on mine, everyone just made for themselves but we didn't do much just a night in Brighton. Matt's best man organised a weekend away with paintballing, casino, vip club entrance, and hotel and all the guys going paid a little bit more so Matt didn't have to pay anything but drinks.
So really I think it's up to who organises it and how nice they are!

Every one I've been on people have paid for themselves and added a bit extra to cover the bride so she doesn't pay for anything

do you have a maid of honour? I would have thought she would organise and get money from people to pay for things - I don't think YOU should be paying...

have always known it to be the bridesmaids/MOH to deal with everything and they all cover cost of bride x

I organised mine because i had a random group of friends going,work, home,school etc so was the one in the middle. I paid for my mini bus and hotel room but didn't buy any drinks on the night. My moh bought shot glasses and my sash and flashy lights n stuff! And m L plate!x

Yeah its normally the maid who sorts it all out and ask around for money off the people that go.

my maid of honour is my 13yr old sister lol so thats out the question my mum has paid more than enough already for the wedding, she's already offered to buy benjamin's suit for the wedding day, so guess i can't be asking for more off her...just have to make do with a stanley taxi haha!

Aww bless you for having your little sister as maid of honour.
I'd just chat to the people you want to come to hen night and see what they want to do and how much they want to spend. If it's a party bus or a special hen night deal where you pay before just get everyone to pay for themselves. On the night you probs wont end up buying any drinks, people buy for you

I organised mine (weekend to Portugal) because I managed to get us a brilliant cheap deal.

But, normally, everybody pays for themselves and covers a bit more for the bride.
