With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, don’t forget the day before. Show your girlfriends some love this February 13th (or the weekend before, because let’s be honest, Tuesdays are boring) and celebrate Valentine’s Day. If you’re not sure what to do, here are 6 perfect reception themes for an unforgettable Valentine’s Day party.
1. Knots and bubbles
If you haven’t already, Valentine’s Day is the perfect time to bring out all that flirty decor you’ve been pinning. Tie a bow on just about everything, throw on your prettiest dress, and pop open a bottle of bubbly. Add a charcuterie board or a pretty cake, and you’ve got yourself a girls’ night out.
2. Valentine’s Day Coffee
If you’re more of a daytime girl, try turning your apartment into a girly cafe. You can keep it simple with coffee and pastries, or go all out and make it a brunch spot! Lean into the cafe aesthetic to create a cute and cozy vibe, or take inspiration from one of your favorite TV cafes like Luke’s Diner or Central Perk.
3. Secret Galentine
Gifts aren’t just for couples, they’re for girls too. Host a gift exchange like a Secret Galentine’s or White Elephant and exchange gifts with your girlfriends! Keep it light or spicy… add vibrators, spicy books, naughty accessories or fun Bellesa products!
4. Alcohol and Bravo (or a bachelor…or anything, really)
Turn your favourite TV show or movie into a drinking game. In this house we’re housewives and Love Island girls, but luckily you can make a drinking game out of any show, so pick what your group likes… Even spice it up with a 50 Shades edition 👀. The key to making this drinking game the best is a good list of rules, so get creative and have fun.
Note: Be smart about your rules. If you take a picture every time someone asks, “Can I take you out to chat,” it will result in a group visit to the ER.
5. Painting evening
A paint party isn’t a new idea for a girls’ night in, but rather than limiting yourself to canvases, expand your range and paint something new like tote bags, wine glasses, or candles. We love activities that come with a take-home gift. Create a killer playlist, stock up on wine, and you’ll have a great night!
6. Cooking club
Cooking together is a great way to add some fun to your dinner party. Making pizza or fresh ravioli are two fun, delicious, and heart-shaped group meals if you really want to indulge your festive side. If you don’t have the space to host a cooking party, try a Valentine’s Day-themed potluck.
Happy Valentine’s Day, bbs <3
