About us · Meet Oliver

Hi, I'm Oliver.
Bringing the party
since 2018.

I started as a butler in the buff. These days, you'll still find me shaking cocktails, hosting life drawing and loving every minute of it.

When you enquire, it's me you speak to. And I personally know everyone I send to your party.

How it started

From bow ties
to cocktail shakers
and sketchpads.

I started working hen parties in 2018 as a butler in the buff, before moving into cocktails and then life drawing. Along the way, I've met amazing people from all walks of life — and been invited into some brilliant celebrations.

I still actively deliver cocktail masterclasses and life-drawing sessions myself. I love watching a group relax, get involved and start making memories together. Being part of an event they'll talk about for years is a pretty special way to spend a working day.

That's what I want Cotswold Hen Party to bring to your celebration: people who love the job and want your group to have a great time.

A few favourites from along the way

Different parties.
So many good memories.

From bow ties and big group photos to cocktail shakers and sketchpads. These are a few moments from my time hosting parties—the people and celebrations that make me love this job.

The people make the party

A team built
through knowing
each other.

Over the years, I've worked alongside some great guys: party hosts, life-drawing models and cocktail makers. Those relationships have grown into the close-knit team behind Cotswold Hen Party.

I personally know everyone I send to your party. I know their experience and what they bring to a celebration, so I can talk to you about the people delivering your activities.

Tell me about your group and the kind of atmosphere you're after. Whether you're planning something relaxed, something cheeky or a bit of both, that conversation helps us get the details right.

Local connections, made in person

I've been there.
Met the people.
Seen the party.

I've worked at so many venues around the South West. You learn a lot about a place when you're there with a group: whether there's enough room for everyone, how the facilities work and what makes it a great setting for a celebration.

After a great event, I've reached out to the venue because I knew it would be a good fit for future groups. I've met chefs at parties too, and made connections with people who can add something special to a weekend.

Those experiences help shape my recommendations. If you're looking for somewhere to stay, a private chef or a pamper session, tell me what you have in mind. I can explain which venues I've visited personally and help you explore the options.

Cotswold roots. Plenty of places to party.

Your celebration.
Our kind of weekend.

Hen weekends are at the heart of what we do, but birthdays, ladies' nights and other celebrations are very welcome too. We cover the Cotswolds, Bristol, Bath and surrounding areas, with bookings further afield including Oxford, Cardiff, Worcester and Coventry.

Tell me your date and location and I'll check who's available to come to you.

You'll be speaking to me

You don't need
a finished plan.

Send me your ideas, your questions or the bits you're stuck on. We can chat about the activities, timings and what would suit your group.

I know how much goes into organising a weekend for everyone. Let's get your bit of the party sorted.
