19 Activity Ideas For Your Galentines Day Party!
What to do at a galentines day party:
- DIY Spa Day: Transform your space into a mini spa with stations for different treatments. You can have a facial station with a variety of face masks (think hydrating, clay, or peel-off), a mani-pedi station complete with nail polishes and files, and a makeover station with makeup and hairstyling tools. Set the mood with relaxing music and scented candles.
- Brunch Extravaganza: Invite everyone to bring their signature dish, creating a diverse and delicious spread. Set up a DIY mimosa bar with different juices and fruits for customization. Don’t forget a cute coffee and tea corner with various options for the non-drinkers.
- Karaoke Night: Set up a karaoke machine or use a karaoke app. You can have themed rounds like throwback hits, power ballads, or duets. Create a playful, judgment-free atmosphere where everyone feels comfortable to let loose and sing their heart out.
- Movie Marathon: Pick a theme for your movie night, whether it’s classic rom-coms, empowering female-led films, or even a specific actress’s filmography. Arrange comfy seating with plenty of pillows and blankets, and have a popcorn bar with different seasonings and snacks.
- Crafting Session: Set up stations for various crafts. For jewelry making, provide beads, threads, and clasps. For candle making, have wax, wicks, and scents available. If you choose painting, supply canvases, paints, and brushes. This activity allows for creativity and something tangible to remember the day by.
- Themed Dress-Up: Decide on a fun theme and encourage everyone to dress accordingly. Whether it’s a glamorous Hollywood night, a funky 80s party, or a comfy pajama party, make sure to take lots of group photos!
- Baking Challenge: Create a mini baking competition where everyone tries to make the best cupcakes, cookies, or a surprise dish with a mystery ingredient. You could even judge based on categories like taste, presentation, and creativity.
- Wine Tasting: Set up a wine-tasting station with a selection of reds, whites, and perhaps a sparkling option. Pair each wine with complementary cheeses and chocolates. You can even make it educational by researching and sharing facts about each wine.
- Photo Booth Fun: Create a DIY photo booth with a backdrop (like a sheet or streamers) and props like funny hats, glasses, and signs. Ensure there’s good lighting, and maybe even a tripod set up for easy picture taking.
- Dance Party: Make a playlist that includes everyone’s favorite dance songs. Clear out space in your living room for a dance floor. You could even have mini dance-offs or learn a TikTok dance together.
- Pottery or Art Class: Arrange for an instructor to lead a pottery or art class. This could be a calming, meditative activity that also allows for creativity. Plus, everyone gets to take home their creation!
- Scrapbooking Session: Set up a table with all the scrapbooking essentials – papers, stickers, scissors, glue, and, of course, photos. Everyone can create a page or two to add to a collective Galentine’s Day scrapbook or their personal one.
- Vision Board Party: Supply magazines, scissors, glue, and poster boards for everyone to create their vision boards. This activity is great for bonding and sharing your hopes and dreams with each other.
- Cooking Class: If hiring a chef isn’t in the budget, choose a recipe online that everyone can cook together. This can be a fun and collaborative way to learn a new recipe and enjoy the meal you’ve made together.
- Book Swap: Have everyone bring a favorite book and do a swap. Include a little note explaining why you love the book. This is a great way to share your interests and get new reading recommendations.
- Outdoor Picnic: If the weather allows, have a picnic in a local park. Bring blankets, picnic food, and perhaps some outdoor games like frisbee or badminton.
- Board Game Night: Bring out classic board games or try new ones. Games like Pictionary, Charades, or even strategy games can create hours of fun and laughter.
- Yoga Session: Start the day with a peaceful yoga session. You can follow an online class or hire an instructor. This can be a refreshing and grounding way to start your festivities.
- Storytelling Circle: Gather around and share stories – whether they’re heartfelt, funny, or empowering. This can be a wonderful way to connect and learn more about each other.
These activities are designed to strengthen bonds, create new memories, and most importantly, celebrate the incredible women in your life. Enjoy your Galentine’s Day party!
