Flock founder Kathryn Dinsmore launched the company in April 2021 after finding her self facing redundancy due to the last year seriously effecting the events industry.
Whilst researching hen parties for her sister's wedding, she also also discovered a gap in the market, "Most of the big companies were offering the same repetitive packages at expensive prices," shares Kathryn. "I felt there was a huge gap for a personalised planner that offers the very best experiences at a reasonable price."

With COVID-19, hen groups are definitely more reluctant to book abroad this year, and so Scotland has so much to offer in terms of beauty and fun.

"It also feels like something fresh and new, especially for groups from England, Wales and Ireland who might not have visited before," adds Kathryn.
"I'm originally from Northern Ireland, and came to Scotland for University. I fell in love with the country and now live here permanently. With a background in the events industry, it feels like the perfect fit to bring bridal groups together to enjoy this magical old country."

Flock specialises in creating unique hen party packages at affordable prices across Scotland - focusing in Edinburgh and some of the most beautiful places across the Highlands and Loch Lomond.

Its vision is to plan and personalise bespoke hen parties for the cool and modern day bride, depending on the group's preferences.

For example, its 'Boho bride' package is designed for free spirited types who love relaxation and wellness. On the other hand, 'Thrill seeker' package aims to put groups outside of their comfort zone, with adrenaline-fuelled activities like zip-lining and watersports.

Women want a personal engagement ring not an expensive one

New research suggests a shift in how women approach one of the most traditional luxury jewellery purchases, with 75% saying they want an engagement ring to prioritise personal meaning over size or value. A study of 1,353 UK women carried out by 77 Diamonds* found that 75% say they would prioritise a personalised engagement ring over a larger or more expensive diamond. What seems to stand out is not a complete rejection of convention, but rather a rebalancing and reassessment of value. 59% of women say their preference still leans towards traditional ready-made ring designs, and only 11% want an entirely custom-made piece But the emotional drive behind preferences and purchasing decisions does appear to be changing with 30% expressing a desire for rings that carry additional meaning through small modifications, engravings or design adjustments.
