Valentine’s Day is obviously a day all about love. To me, it’s about celebrating everyone we love, like our friends and family. So, why wouldn’t you have a party to celebrate all the wonderful people in your life? This article is perfect for you if you’re throwing the party of the month!
First, you want to make your house seem as inviting as possible. You want your friends to feel included and welcome. Candles and low lighting are perfect to set the ambiance. Flowers on the table with personal Valentines on each plate would be the perfect touch of love to otherwise a boring table setting. Maybe throw up some cute heart decor! I personally love going to Target and the Dollar Store for all of my party essentials. Plates, napkins, and plasticware can all be found for super cheap at the Dollar Store. Target is perfect for the cutest and absolutely adorable banners and balloons.
Next is the food! My go to app to look for cute and simple recipes is Pinterest. My Galentine’s board is stocked with tons of recipes! These include cookie monster cookies, dyed red of course! Another staple at my parties is bacon wrapped mini hot dogs. It is the perfect mix of savory and sweet, my guests will devour them within 10 minutes! It has endless options for appetizers, main courses, and best of all, dessert! Make sure you ask your guests what they like to eat. Whenever I plan my parties I make sure I know what my friends like to snack on. It’s a simple way to let your friends know that you care about them. Even a little question can make your friends feel appreciated and loved. Which is the reason you’re throwing this party!
Last but not least, the party itself! You’ve done all this fabulous work to throw the perfect party, it’s time to enjoy it. But, let’s make sure you have all of the party necessities. Are your decorations ready with the table set? Perfect, you’re on the right path. Do you have your food? Yay! You are all set to throw the perfect party. The real purpose of Valentine’s Day is to show your love and appreciation for your loved ones. I hope this party is just that! Happy Valentine’s Day!
