HOW TO THROW A GALENTINE’S DAY PARTY

February 3, 2021
Share this post

WHAT IS GALENTINE’S DAY?!??


This is the history behind this day~ it was created by a fictional character: Leslie Knope of Parks and Recreation. In 2010, the second season of Parks and Recreation included an episode called โ€œGalentine’s Day,โ€ in which Leslie gathers a group of her closest gal pals for a brunch of waffles and love.

.

In the past few years, these Galentine celebrations have become more popular, and I’m not mad about it. Friendships should be celebrated throughout the year, but this is a day set apart to show that love + enjoyment. It could be breakfast style, but the sky is the limit when planning this fun day.

,

HOW TO THROW AN EASY AT HOME GALENTINE'S PARTY WITH YOUR FRIENDS~ CHARCUTERIE BOARD, BREAKFAST BOARD AND MORE

.

.

HOW TO DECORATE??!?


First of all, I ordered everything from Amazon and Target. And, I turned our living room into a red and pink party zone. And, no boys allowed!! I used as many items that I already had and added lots of heart balloons to the mix.

Linking everything below for y’all.

.

WHAT I PURCHASED

.

.

WHAT TO EAT??!?


ย Galentineโ€™s Day is traditionally a brunch, but there are no rules.

We went with a dessert charcuterie board + coffee from Dunkin’. It was perfect.

We did have breakfast board + fresh juice the day before with some of these same friends which is another cute idea. A waffle or pancake bar is an affordable + cute idea. Another cute idea would be a pizza bar. Y’all can create your own heart shaped pizzas. I have more ideas pinned here on Pinterest!!
.

 

WHAT WE ADDED TO THE DESSERT CHARCUTERIE BOARD:

chocolate covered strawberries

white chocolate pretzel rods

wafers

dipped Oreos

Funfetti cupcakes

Hershey kisses

Pink KitKats

lots of other red and pink candy

.

WHAT WE WORE??!?


We went with Valentine themed pajamas, but it can just be casual, loungewear.

Or, it can be cute, fancy attire if you go with a dance party. Wearing pink or red is always a must in my book. I’ll link some of my favorite Valentine themed pj’s below.

.

WHAT WE ARE WEARING

.

WHAT TO DO??!?


Ok, we have the friends, the cute decor, and the yummy food.

This can just be a fun time with lots of girl talk, but more can be added to the agenda like movie night with a chick flick, karaoke, wild dance party (TikTok dance challenge), or game night. I found some fun game ideas on Etsy and saved it on Pinterest!!!ย 

And, we always love to throw some heart gushes into the mix. Add an affirmation circle + have some tissue handy. This is always a crowd favorite amongst my friends.
