Galentine’s Day may have started as a joke in a TV sitcom, but now it’s something women all over the world celebrate. We think you should, too!
Galentine’s Day, which is celebrated every year on the 13th of February, is a celebration of female friendship. It was created by Lesley Knope, who’s inspirational, bold, and just plain awesome.
I am indeed a huge Parks & Rec Fan, but as a feminist, I also believe female friendships are a force not to be underestimated.
If your friends are like mine, they’re the props, hype girls, and sources of inspiration who leave you in constant awe. If you’re like me, then you want to throw a party for them every single Day of the year.
Why not dedicate a special day to the woman in your life who you love unconditionally?
You’ll realize how helpful friends are, even if you don’t have bridesmaids. You can ask them to listen, give you advice, or distract you from the stress of planning a wedding.
It’s even more reason to gather your girlfriends and host your own Galentine’s Day soiree!
Lesley Knope’s first Galentine’s Day event was a breakfast. Your celebration can be anything you like, whether it’s a dinner, picnic, brunch, or slumber.
You only need a background to relax with your closest friends and toast your friendship.
We’ve got five great ideas to make your Galentine’s Day celebrations more fun.
You don’t have to write 1000-word essays personalized for every guest or make a needlepoint cushion of their faces. You can if you wish.
Girl Squad Uniform
We know that your friends won’t be interested in wearing matching t-shirts to your favorite brunch spot, but giving them commemorative clothing or a gang accessory can be a great idea.
We love to pair up with friends in matching PJs, friendship bracelets for adults, or even a cozy sweater on movie night.
Create a Playlist
Galentine’s Day will not be an exception. You and your friends might like to sing along with Fleetwood Mac during karaoke. Another group prefers Beyonce as a background track. (My friends probably are half and half.
