This Irish Hen Night Had the Best Surprise You’ll See All Week

Filthy but so, so funny.

There’s really no way around it – however classy you plan on an Irish hen night being, it’s nigh impossible to avoid some penis paraphernalia if the bridesmaids get their way. These bridesmaids took it to another level entirely! 

Her.ie reader Leona Clarke writes: “We were certainly wishing our bride plenty of Ha-Penis last night as we celebrated Gemma Crossan’s hen in Carrick on Shannon. What started out as a simple willy cake ended up being more than we expected after we got very giddy making it and got my mechanically minded brother involved.

“Gemma, one of my best friends, is a hairdresser from Collooney, Sligo. She is marrying Kevin Cogan in October and as with any hen party we needed a bit of filth. Luckily two of her bridesmaids, myself and Nichola Carey are Home Economics teachers and can find our way around a kitchen”

The resulting cake has to be seen to be believed.


Leona adds “We had such a fun night. Only problem our poor hen Gemma is in a cast this morning after breaking her leg on a wet dance floor.

“But Gemma, being the most positive person is the world is still smiling broadly this morning after having a fabulous weekend.”

If this is the craic at the hen, we can only imagine the wedding. Congrats Gemma!
