The Rise and Rise of Edinburgh Divorce Parties
Divorce parties Edinburgh, Edinburgh divorce cakes, Madame Peaches

More and more Edinburgh women are celebrating their parting of the ways with one heck of a divorce party.
All the accoutrements are there – great venue, champagne, the crowd of friends and the cake.
But the cutting of the 'divorce' cake (often featuring tongue-in-cheek designs like the one left showing the bride pushing her groom down the cake tiers) symbolises the severing of past ties and the start of a whole new life.
Justine Wortsman from Edinburgh business Madam Peaches was quick to realise the potential growth of this event sector and now advertises divorce parties alongside her highly successful stag and hen nights.
Says Justine:
"These ladies are re-discovering themselves after being part of a marriage. Identifying who they are as a woman in their own right is a huge part of that. Yes, they're moving onto to a scary place, but it's exciting too and we're helping them mark the start of this new chapter!"
It's about women having a good time and celebrating life.
"Ladies who have booked with us have tended to select either the 'Pole Party' or - more often -the 'Burlesque Babes' party. Burlesque is a very feminine form of self expression and the style embraces our diversity as women".
Madame Peaches also cater for fabulous hen parties, pole dancing and burlesque courses. A great, fun-filled alternative to the gym!*

Madame Peaches are offering a 20% discount for parties booked before 31 December 2009. Please mention informedwomen when booking.

Justine makes the very valid point that negative body image affects so many women - especially women who've recently experienced divorce.
A glamorous pole dancing or burlesque party gives the divorcee and her friends an excuse to dress to the nines - high heels, stockings, push up bras and loads of lippy. One recent divorcee even wore L plates to symbolise her re-emergence on the dating scene!
Says Justine:
"My teachers are all wonderful women, different shapes, sizes and ages who are not only fabulous at what they do - but have amazing people skills and empathy. They know how to adapt to every group, put ladies at their ease and really bring out the best in them. My parties and courses sell confidence - and that's sexy!!'".
