How To Host The Perfect Galentine's Day With Your Besties
Celebrating Friendship with Solace Jewellery
Valentine’s Day isn’t just about romantic love – it’s the perfect time to celebrate the amazing people in your life! Hosting a Galentine’s party is a heartfelt and fun way to honour your friendships and create lasting memories with your loved ones. Whether it’s a simple brunch, dinner party or a cosy night in, Galentine’s is all about celebrating the love that makes your life brighter.
Galentine’s Day officially falls on February 13th, but you can host your party whenever it works best for you. Here’s your step-by-step guide to planning the ultimate Galentine’s celebration, featuring meaningful touches from us.
1. Set the Scene With A Theme
Every memorable party starts with a great theme. For Galentine’s, think pinks, reds, and whites with heart motifs for a classic Valentine’s vibe. Or go for cozy warm tones, fairy lights, and candles for a relaxed, intimate atmosphere.
If you want to get creative, choose a theme that reflects your friendship group—like everyone dressing as a favourite shared memory or rocking outfits from the year you all met.
2. Add a Personal Touch
Perhaps your love language is gift giving - show your love for your besties with either a personalised card or a gift exchange. Surprise them with matching pyjamas or jewellery gifts for a heartfelt touch.
Our Valentine’s Collection has pieces that are perfect way to symbolise your connection, from friendship bracelets to rings.
Bonus: This love season we are offering a free gift with orders over £30 from our Valentine’s collection. Treat your friends (and yourself) to something extra special.
3. Plan Fun Activities
Keep the party lively with activities that celebrate your friendship. Here are some ideas:
-
Host a cozy movie marathon of your favourite films
-
Play nostalgic board games or fun video games together
-
Create a memory jar by writing down your favourite shared moments
-
Organise a karaoke session and sing your hearts out
-
Have a personal polaroid photoshoot to capture the candid and cute moments
-
Mix and enjoy your favourite cocktails/ mocktails.
4. Cook Delicious Treats
No party is complete without great food. Food brings people together and its a wonderful way to bond. You could either cook your favourite meals dinner party style, or spend time baking cupcakes or brownies together.
If you want to go all out, ask everyone to bring a themed grazing board - think sweet vs. savoury or foods that match your colour scheme. At our Solace Galentine's party we opted for a mix of sweet and savoury but kept with our classic theme of pinks and reds.
5. Capture the Moment
Lastly make sure to document the night! Take candid photos and group shots of your besties for you to treasure forever. Don’t let the memories fade. Bonus points for any embarrassing moments like karaoke caught on film.
Hosting a Galentine’s party is about more than a fun night, its a chance to celebrate the people who make your life brighter. With meaningful gestures, thoughtful gifts and a plenty of laughter, your Galentine’s party will be unforgettable.
