Love will be on everyone's minds this week! And that means it's time to share it not only with your partner and/or yourself, but also with your beloved friends! Have you never heard of this holiday? It is an alternative to Valentine's Day, usually celebrated on 13 February (or earlier) and is associated with friendly activities aimed at having a fun and productive time in a safe and enjoyable environment. If you are in a relationship, it does not mean that the holiday is not for you. This day symbolizes female friendship, support and love, so the more festivities of love, the better. Celebrate the women in your life!
Host a Party
For starters, it takes initiative! It is still not too late to plan and organize an ideal Galentine's Day. Typically, on this day, women gather at someone's house, throw a girl’s night, cook and have fun together. Further, we will share the Galentine's Day activities ideas with you. However, everything can be customized! If you want to celebrate this day only with your one and only best friend and arrange a romantic evening for two, go out with your girlfriends to a cozy café for brunch, or gather the women of your family and celebrate with them — everything can be done!
Love Mocktails
Plan a menu of cocktails and mocktails in advance with cute names and ingredients. You can also customize the menu! Next, you and your friends can prepare and decorate them together, from ribbons and bows to cherries and jellies. This way, everyone feels involved from the very start.
Chic Photoshoot
A house party, of course, doesn't always necessarily mean PJs, but these days you can find so many cute and stylish ones! A great opportunity to organize a mini photo shoot for each other. Everyone can bring Polaroids, vintage cameras or film cameras for authenticity.
Cake Decorations
Vintage cakes have taken over Pinterest, everyone wants them! So this is another perfect Galentine's Day team activity. Prepare your shortcakes, cream, and pastry tools, and assemble the cutest cake decorations. So, at the end of the evening, each of you will have a cute, customized dessert. Not to mention some cute pics props!

Movie Time
The perfect time of the year to watch rom-coms and other films about love, female friendship and strength. Our movie suggestions are: Legally Blonde (2001), Mean Girls (2004), Bad Moms (2016), Sex and the City: The Movie (2008), Booksmart (2019), Little Women (2019), Bride Wars (2009), The Princess Diaries (2001).
Assemble a Bouquet
Many expect flowers in the middle of February. To give yourself these emotions and not to expect anything from anyone, we suggest including another creative activity on Galentine's Day. Ask each friend to bring flowers of their taste. Next, you can all put together one unique bouquet that will reflect each of you. It's also a great way to thank the host of the evening!
Spa at Home
Set up stations for facials, mani, and hair treatments, and provide plenty of comfy robes and slippers. Play relaxing music, serve healthy snacks and drinks, and create a peaceful atmosphere for a day of relaxation with your girls. It's a wonderful way to bond and treat yourselves to some well-deserved self-care.
Write Love Letters to Each Other
This could be a great way to express appreciation, gratitude, and love for each other. You could also use this opportunity to reflect on your friendship and share special memories. It would be a unique and heartfelt activity that could bring everyone closer. You can also decorate the envelopes together so that each letter is ideal and unique for its recipient.
