The Ultimate Galentine's Party Activities

Galentine's Day is the perfect excuse to gather your closest friends, celebrate the bond you share, and live out true girlhood. We've put together seven creative activities to help you host the ultimate girls' night that’s filled with laughter, memories, and, of course, a lot of fun. Get ready to make this Galentine’s day one to remember.

Painting Candles 

The key to a well-rounded Galentine celebration is of course the crafts and table decor. Painting candles includes both! Although I love classic ivory candles, switch it up with some red, purple, and pink taper candles for a girly Galentine’s twist. I have especially been loving stripe, bow, and of course, heart patterns. Go to your local thrift to find brass or glass candle holders to display their finished look.

Host a Flower Bar or Private Floral Workshop

Who says beautiful flowers are only for weddings or baby showers? Galentine's Day is the perfect excuse to bring florals into the mix. Create a personalized bouquet you love, and take it home after the party to decorate your own space in Galentine’s decor.

Make Charm Bracelets

Nothing brings girls together like making charm bracelets in true Galentine’s fashion. To take your bracelet-making to the next level, choose gold charms and a bracelet chain. Create something that captures the memories you and your girls will cherish forever. Be sure to incorporate pink, red, and gold elements for that perfect Galentine’s touch.

Paint Night

Painting is a fun and creative way to bond with your ladies at a Galentine’s party. Set up a mini art station with canvases, paints, and brushes, and let everyone create their own masterpiece. Whether it's a group project or individual pieces, it's the perfect activity to inspire laughter and lasting memories.

If you’re looking for a subject to paint, grab a bouquet or floral arrangement to stir your creativity. The vibrant colors and delicate details of the flowers make for the perfect artistic challenge. Plus, it adds a stunning, Galentine’s touch to your party atmosphere!

Self-Care Spa Night

Indulging in some much-needed self-care paired with bonding with your gals is a recipe for a perfectly soothing and fun night. Do face-masks, light some candles, and paint nails. Make sure to hang up some shower eucalyptus to fill your space with a refreshing scent that makes for the most relaxing party vibe.

Mocktails and a Movie

Make some mocktails or cocktails to pair with your favorite rom-com. Think Shirley Temples or rosé with a dash of edible glitter and maraschino cherries. Go for colorful mocktail drinkware. I’ve been loving fun shaped glasses including those with scalloped edged rims. To make it even more extra, choose red or pink sugar to cover the rims.

Photo Booth

Create a vibrant photo booth with props like heart-shaped sunglasses and glittery hats to add some extra fun to your Galentine’s Day. Set the scene with a whimsical floral display to match the festive vibe. It’s the perfect spot for you and your ladies to take unforgettable photos and cherish the memories long after the celebration!
