A significant other isn’t a necessity for Valentine’s Day, all you need is a fun get together with your friends filled with romcoms and chocolates. While Valentine’s Day is traditionally based around romance, enjoying time with your friends and family is just as important.
Snacks are arguably the most important part of a Valentine’s Party, so make sure you grab themed candies and snacks to share. A fan favorite for Valentines are the Chick-fil-a food platters, as they come in heart shaped tins with a choice of nuggets, cookies or chick-n minis. Chick-n minis are their signature biscuit with a crispy piece of chicken in the middle. Another great food choice that is super cute is a heart-shaped cake! Whether it’s purchased from the grocery store or homemade, it is sure to be a huge hit.
Food is a huge part of the day, so try some themed charcuterie boards! A favorite of mine is a breakfast board! Include some pancakes, french toast, croissants and waffles! Add some syrup and fruit on the side to add a nice topping for your food. Another charcuterie board idea is candy! Whether you prefer sweet or salty, add some chocolates, gummy worms, skittles and lollipops to create an assortment of candy everyone will enjoy.
Besides food, a crucial part of your Valentines Party is having fun with friends. Grab some paint brushes, and paint tote bags with your crew! These cute bags can be used when out shopping with friends, or just to hold your things! Or, order a bulk pack of tote bags on Amazon, grab some paint and brushes from Michael’s and you’re all set! If you are hosting a Valentine’s Party, obviously you want to make it memorable! To do this, you can create a photobooth with friends and make memories that will last a lifetime. Grab some valentines accessories and heart shaped glasses, maybe even a boa! Dress up, and use some props from Target or Amazon. If you want to add even more glam, grab pink or red streamers for a background!
Although it’s not Christmas, gifts for your friends are still a super cute idea! Another addition you can add to your party is gift baskets! Fill up some cute baskets with a card, candy and stuffed animals! Everyone can appreciate a cute Valentines themed stuffed animal, such as a Jelly Cat with some Ghirardelli chocolates! Additionally, nothing warms the heart more than a handwritten note from your best friend. Or, just wanting to hang out and relax? Grab some blankets and throw pillows, settle in and watch some rom coms. Some entertaining ones to watch are 13 Going on 30, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days and 10 Things I Hate About You. Most of all, enjoy the special day with your friends and share your love for the friendships you have!
