Celebrating Friendship: Guide to Galentine's Day

Valentine's Day isn't just for romantic partners - Celebrate the incredible friendships in your life this February with our ultimate guide to Galentine's Day and make it extra special with your girls!

Because we love going overboard for everything...all these ideas should be completed with stunning decor, fun photo opps, and party favors for all the guests! See below for inspiration:

• Mylar heart balloon wall is super easy and cute!

• Consider some helium balloons hanging from the ceiling. Hang photos with all your friends at the ends. Blow up balloons for the ground too!

• We love pink champagne - add some cotton candy or edible glitter for an extra touch!

• Have gifts for all your girls when they arrive or at their place settings:

  - A simple rose with candy or box of chocolates. - A pampering kit - face masks, makeup, lotions, soaps, etc. - Cozy essentials - blankets, fuzzy socks, slippers, etc.

• Heart garlands are easy to make and are a fun addition to hang from just about anywhere.

• Charcuterie boards with all things pink, red and white. Try your hand at salami roses too for a savory board!

• Decorations from Amazon: - Heart Garland - Heart Tinsel Backdrop - Heart Balloons - Conversation Heart Decor - Heart Tinsel

• Other stores to check out for decor: Target, Hobby Lobby, Dollar Tree/General
  

Here are some ideas on how to spend your Galentine's Day:

1. PJ Party

Have everyone wear their PJs and bring their favorite snack to share. Put on your favorite romcoms and enjoy the evening!

For the Cherry on Top: Buy matching pj sets (like these ones) for everyone to change into on arrival!

2. Glam Dinner

Hire a private chef to cook an in home 5 course meal, get the girls to dress to the nines and pop the champagne to celebrate friendship! A perfect opportunity to stay in and still feel like a million bucks. Check out these table decorations to help build your tablescape!

3. Chocolate Bar Party

Everyone should bring something that can be dipped in chocolate (pretzels, fruit, peanuts, marshmallows, etc) and their own take home container. The host provides ample dipping chocolate. Dip, dip, dip and then when everything is dipped and dried, pack up your containers with your goodies.

For the Cherry on Top: You could also add in some cupcake decorating!

4. Photoshoot and Permanent Jewelry

Hire your favorite photographer to come out and do a bestie photoshoot with all your girls. Make sure you have a cute setup or find a nearby studio you can utilize.

Don't forget that I offer such photo shoots and can also make other recommendations!

For the Cherry on Top: have someone come and do blowouts for you and your friends. Glam up for the shoot!

5. Private Paint Party

Robyn hosts at home paint parties and will come to you! Makes it easy, you can pick your painting and she brings all the supplies! Just pay per person. Check her out and contact her here: Robyn's Art Parties
