What does the bride’s fantasy man look like? Describe him to Aunty and she’ll arrange for him to spring out of the background at whatever venue takes your fancy during your Spain hen weekend. A trendy club; a cosy bar; a fun eatery. Wine, dine and enjoy the view: Aunty Andrea’s Hen Fantasy Men is all the rage at the moment amongst ladies looking for that last stab at letting their hair down before picking socks up off the bathroom floor takes over.

Now, where’s that catalogue, I fancy something dark and mysterious tonight…

Sign off the WAG list and sign in to Playa D’Aro

This week Cheryl Cole announced she would divorce her roving eyed husband. And who could blame her? So, what should she do to celebrate? And what should all you girls be doing to forget the football and focus on what really matters: shopping?

Aunty Andrea may specialise in hen weekends in Spain, but she also organises a mean retail therapy jaunt for those ladies in need of putting all their men related woes behind them. So if you are signing off the WAG list like Cheryl Cole; eliminating a useless other half at long last or just fancy a weekend away from the yawn-some world cup commentary, let Aunty sort it.

Check this out: Playa D’aro on the Costa Brava is renowned for its shopping offer. Seriously ladies: bags. Shoes. Labels. My heart is racing.

On Aveninda De S’Agaro the major shopping area of Playa D’Aro, it’s a case of whatever you want, it’s here. Clothes, jewellery, whatever takes your fancy. This is a Costa Brava hen weekend without the woe of a wedding when you get back.

And then on to the main street, a vast array of shops and boutiques will greet you, including literally dozens of handbag stores. Need a new bag? Hang on, what am I saying? When do you need a new bag? WANT a new bag? Desire a new bag? This is designer handbag heaven girls so make sure you haven’t completely severed all ties with the ex because you’ll need full reign of his credit card for this girls’ weekend in Playa D’Aro.

We’re talking literally hundreds of shops here in Playa D’Aro ladies; all set along wide avenues and dotted amongst swanky terraced cafes. Shop; rest; sip a refreshing aperitif; shop again; rest your high heeled feet; indulge in a luscious lunch; and then saunter off to a mellow sun down. Forget the guys and enjoy your girly weekend courtesy of Aunty!

Alternatives to Watching the World Cup

What will you be doing ladies whilst the boys are watching the footie? Shopping? Lunching? Lazing in the garden? How about you all get together and do something a little more outlandish?

Aunty Andrea may specialise in hen weekends in Spain, but she’s been booking some girly weekends with a difference lately for those mates that want to leave their world cup obsessed lads to it and spend some quality time browsing racks of designer labels and parading up and down shoe shop walkways glancing at divine heels instead.

Some of my ladies are even going to further extremes and booking full on activity weekends. And why not? Anything beats being glued to a penalty shoot-out, right?

How about learning to make a true, authentic paella? And then finding out the secret ingredients to the most potent Sangria ever?

Or what about an intriguing treasure hunt? Scour through cryptic clues laid out before you within the walls of an ancient village overlooking the sea and discover the booty that will have you shouting ‘goal’ so loud the boys will hear it back in Blighty.

And then there’s a barbeque at sea; set sail on a glorious catamaran and take in the stunning Costa Brava scenery as you sip champagne with the salty sea breeze rippling your hair. Set down in a secluded cove and listen to that grill sizzle as a sumptuous lunch is served.

Football? What football? Get yourselves booked on a Costa Brava hen weekend and get away from it all. Don’t worry if you’re not getting married, in fact, all the better: why worry about a wedding when you can spend the money on shoes and champagne instead?

Joint Stag and Hen Do? Well if you must, Aunty can do!

According to the media, Charlotte Church has decided a joint hen and stag do with fiancé Gavin Henson is the way to go to avoid trouble.

A report in the Daily Star says the singer worries that a stag do without her will land Henson in trouble. "Charlotte knows what Gav's schoolmates are like and reckons things will get out of hand”, said a newspaper source.

Hence attempting to talk her fiancé into a joint stag and hen do. Keeping an eye on her betrothed seems to be a priority, for some reason.

Apparently, "She's worried they'll shave his eyebrows off or get him arrested for something silly like being naked in the street," says the paper. Heavens above. What sort of stag weekend does she think people go after these days?

No messing about; men want a bit of action don’t they on their stag weekend? None of this silliness; let’s have some paintballing, quad biking, speed boating, scuba diving, archery, go-karting and whatever else it is you want to do.

Worried about your man away with the lads? Don’t. Aunty won’t let any harm come to them. They wouldn’t dare under Aunty’s regime! They’ll have a great time, and so will you if you organise your hen weekend in Spain with Aunty. But the great time won’t leave you heading for the divorce courts before you’ve even tied the knot. It’s fun with Aunty, but it’s not out of control. Well unless you want it to be, girls.

Stag or hen weekend in Spain? Trust Aunty to take care of it. And if you want a joint stag and hen weekend, then OK, it’s yours!

Four reasons why you should let your bird go on a Costa Brava Hen Weekend

Look lads, she’s agreed to marry you, so be grateful. Now she wants to go away with the girls to make the most of her last days of freedom. OK some destinations could be a bit dodgy; Las Vegas for example, I mean she might come back having married someone else.

So send her to me. A Costa Brava hen weekend is just what she needs. Laid back; nice views; bit of spa stuff; shopping; posh nosh. OK she’ll come back with a few more pairs of shoes and maybe a slight dent in your credit card, but hey ho, it’s nothing compared to some hen weekends you’ve read about in the Daily Star, is it?

So why send your bird on a Costa Brava hen weekend? Here’s Aunty’s four top reasons:

1. Because if she goes to Playa D’Aro she’ll have a ball in classy clubs that don’t attract any riff-raff. So you know she’ll just be having a posh time with the girls.

2. Because if she stays in Lloret de Mar she’ll be able to indulge in all sorts, from designer shopping to culture vulture tourist experiences. So she won’t have time for any funny business.

3. Because if Tossa de Mar is her destination of choice, she’ll be amongst some of the very best restaurants on the Costa Brava and won’t know which cosy live-music bar to snuggle into first. With the girls, that is.

4. Because if Barcelona is where she’s off to, she’ll come back laden with gifts. One of them may be for you, if you’re lucky. But if not, she’ll be a happy girl none the less.

Pay for her hen weekend; you might as well. She’ll love you for it!

Upmarket Weekends for High-class Hens

Planning your hen weekend in Spain? How does a short flight to a lush destination sound?

Just imagine: your Spain hen weekend with a difference on the Costa Brava.

If you’re the kind of girl who likes to spend quality time with your friends then you’re probably also the kind of girl who demands quality in everything else: especially on your hen weekend! If so, read on for Aunty Andrea’s top picks for the best refined and relaxing hen activities.

Scuba Diving Dream

There is a whole living empire of dramatically coloured fish and captivating sea life below the sublime waters of the Costa Brava, a place well recognised amongst seasoned scuba divers. If getting beneath the surface and taking in the breathtaking beauty that surrounds you is something that gives you goose bumps, ask Aunty about her special all inclusive hen scuba diving activity which has been especially designed for those of you who have always wanted to give this a go, but never took the leap.

Hot Air Ballooning

It’s up, up and away on this spectacular Costa Brava hen weekend activity to witness the truly stunning scenery of northeast Spain. If you’ve never been in a hot air balloon before you will literally be blown away by the experience; when do you ever get to witness a bird’s eye view like this with nothing but warm air between you and the view? As warming thermal currents caress your face, you’ll sweep gently over luscious tree tops and rugged mountains; watching the waves lap at hidden beaches you’d never have known were there and witnessing wild animals dart from forest thickets. And all of this followed by one of Aunty’s divine champagne breakfasts: what could possibly be better for your Spain hen weekend?
