In most countries it's common to have separate bachelor and bachelorette parties. The same goes for England, where the parties are called stag and hen do's - or parties. However, Holly Branson, daughter of Virgin tycoon Sir Richard Branson, and her fiancé, shipbroker Freddie Andrews, will have a joint party. Holly says of their plans, "We're planning a joint hen and stag do, we'll have separate dinners and then we'll all meet up after." The party will take place in Verbier, Switzerland, and it'll be a double celebration. "It's around the time we both turn 30, so we'll have a party with everyone the next night," Holly adds.

The couple will get married on Necker Island, Holly's father famously owns it and Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo wed there earlier this month. The ceremony will be a private occassion, for close friends and family, "I want to make sure that when I walk down the aisle I can see all my best friends and I want to see their faces smiling back at me, and not any random people," Holly concludes.
