Are you wondering what Galentie’s day is? Then here is your answer, Galentine’s Day is a celebration of female friendships, observed on February 13th, the day before Valentine’s Day.

Here are 5 ideas to help you host a memorable Galentine’s Day celebration, inspired by social media users and influences along with Real Simple, a website that focuses on simplifying and improving everyday life

1. Brunch bash: Meet your girlfriends for a delicious brunch at your favourite restaurant or at home. Decorate the table with flowers and balloons.

2. DIY spa day: Treat your gal pals to a relaxing spa day at home. Set up different stations for manicures, pedicures, and facials. Don’t forget the face masks and plush robes!

3. Wine and cheese night: Host a wine and cheese tasting evening at home or at a local vineyard. Pair different wines with artisanal cheeses, crackers, and fruits.

4. Galentine’s game night: Organise a fun game night with your girlfriends. Play games like “What Do You Meme,” “Cards Against Humans,” or “Truth or Dare.” Serve snacks, and cocktails, and enjoy!

5. Personalised gift exchange: Host a gift exchange where each guest brings a small, personalized gift for another attendee. It could be a monogrammed tote bag, a customized journal, or a beautiful piece of jewellery.

Here are some inspirations shared by TikTokers:
