How many hens.

Once you have decided on a location you need to make a list of who to invite. When you ask people on the hen weekend tell them how much they are going to have to pay and when.
You will need to pay a 20% deposit when you book your weekend so make sure you get at least this amount from each member of the group. That way people are less likely to mess you around later.
