If there’s an excuse for me to throw a party, I will be taking that opportunity. Preferably with my boyfriend kicked out of the house, all of my girlies, enough carbs to put us into a food coma and a minimum of 1 bottle of wine per person. Oh wait, I think I just described Galentine’s day!

I’ve hosted Galentine’s 4 times now, so I got you girl. This quite literally is my Super Bowl. If there was a Canva degree for invitations, I would have it. Are we tablescaping on a budget? Say less. Cute lil’ touches to add? I mean, duh. And obviously, the recipes to keep your girls FED!

And I guess if you must make any of these recipes for Valentine’s Day, you could….But that energy better be matched on the other side, or I’m coming for your man.

the menu so far (recipes below):

  • french kiss dip aka french onion dip parfait

  • pretty in pink radicchio caesar salad

still to come:

  • mansplainer pickle martini

  • heart-y focaccia pizza

  • whipped ricotta + beet toasties

  • don’t text your ex cocktail

  • + more!

I also made a few invite designs you can edit + send your own friends. Plus some theme + activity ideas if you’re stuck!

This makes it easier to create a menu by sticking to a certain cuisine/focus. It creates a cohesive dress code + color palate for everything so you’re not as overwhelmed when picking out florals or plates etc. And of course, makes for cute af pictures.

This year my theme is:
