Capture the spirit of love and friendship with a Galentine’s party! filled with vibrant decorations, delicious heart-shaped pizzas, and creative charcuterie boards! Add to the fun with games and a cozy movie night. Happy Valentine’s Day!
My daughter wanted to throw a Galenitnes party with some of her gals! We both had an amazing time decorating the table with all kinds of Valentine’s decorations and cheerful colors! We gathered beautiful pink books from around the house. I found a new one I ordered from here and my order got cancelled! Luckily I was able to find it here in stock! Be sure to check them out here!
I had these darling dinner napkins that I based the tablescape around. I found these fun matte pink plates to use as a dinner plater. I used gorgeous crystal salad plates inherited from my cute grandma. I layered the plates over my favorite chargers for texture and depth. Find them here and here. These chargers are both very versatile and I use them year-round! We found these adorable pink goblets in the target dollar section! Similar here. We found these darling cans of soda and couldn’t pass them up! Like how cute is that can!! I won’t lie, the soda wasn’t a hit! haha! I think out of 8 that tried it only 2 or 3 liked its taste haha. We like this brand and these cans would look cute with a valentines tablescape!
We love these jolly rancher jellybean hearts they added the perfect festive touch in a cute heart bowl!
I love having colored glass goblets to use for different occasions we found these ones in the top target dollar section but these ones are fun too!
The menu consisted of heart shaped pizzas. My daughter and her grandma made delicious pizza dough into heart shapes. We pre-cooked the crust and let them cool so when the girls came for the party, we could pull out the pre-cooked crust and just add the toppings!
The girls assembled their cute pizzas with whatever toppings they wanted. I used this pizza sauce. My daughter was a rockstar and cut all the pepperonis into cute little heart shapes with these. We love these cutters! They work great for cutting fruits, veegies, cheese, and meats into shapes! I used them for this fun party too!
Since the heart shaped pizza dough was pre-cooked, the toppings just needed to warm and the cheese melted. I fit two pizzas on a large cookie sheet side-by-side so they cooked quickly. I have two ovens, so cooking them was a breeze.
All the girls came wearing Valentines day colors (my daughters fun sweatshirt here) and made and brought a fun themed charcuterie board. It was so fun to see what they all came up with!! It was soooooo much food! These boards were perfect to add along side the pizzas! Plus great later for snacks whilst playing games and watching a movie!
I made a green salad to go along with the pizzas and my daughter did a cheese and cracker charcuterie board. We found these fun, heart rice crackers from Trader Joe’s. I love collecting charcuterie boards! I really like using marble boards for cheese and keeping things cold.
All of the girls were so creative! I loved seeing what they came up with. They did all tell each other on a text thread what their charcuterie theme was so there wasn’t doubles of anything! They all ended up bringing quite large boards, so there was A TON! It could have fed 10 more people easily!
Fruit and dip board with melted chocolate, marshmallow dip, and whipped cream! and the cutest strawberries cut into hearts. These toothpicks would be darling to add to a charcuterie board!
A delicious caramel dip (find our caramel dip here) with graham crackers, pretzels, and apples.
Cutest cookie and frosting board. Her friend even made these adorable macarons!
A good offset to all the treats! A vegetable and dip charcuterie board. (find my favorite veggie dip here!)
I alternated each setting with red heart and white heart bowls. I’ve had mind for years! But look at these fun options! Here, Here, Here My neighbor let me borrow her gorgeous crystal candle sticks. I love adding a fun tapered candle! find some fun ones here or here
I added a fun pink pedestal, I love a candy dish! I leave one out year round. Just add a festive ribbon and twine, plus holiday colored candies
My daughter and I had fun shopping for fun little Valentines goodies to add to cute bags as favors on the table.
You can find everything we put in the bags on this post here
We pulled out some fun + funny games to play, including the mystery date. I grew up playing heartthrob, my mom couldn’t find it! She think she threw it away so I looked for it online and it’s no longer made. You can find it second hand, but it’s pretty pricey.
Cute matching Valentine’s Day socks from their gift bags. These would be so much too!
The girls ended the night watching the notebook. A galentines classic! My husband set up our projector and we popped in the DVD. We stacked up pillows and all the minky blankets…you might want some tissues handy too!
Another fun option would have been to decorate sugar cookies! Find my recipe for the best roll out sugar cookies here!
We hope you have a very happy Valentine’s Day whether you’re celebrating with friends, family or your gals.
XO, Carly
