How to Throw a Galentine's Day Cookie Swap Party
  • Instructions

Pick a Theme

Okay let’s be honest, we girls love a party with a theme! It makes it more fun to plan and dress up for. You could make it a super cozy slumber party with your girlies (pajamas + snacks are the perfect combo if you ask us) or even a glamorous night because who doesn’t love getting dolled up! You could also set a pink, red, and white dress code for some super cute themed photos! The possibilities are endless.


Bubbly!

Cheers to the best Galentine’s Day Party ever! Every party needs a little bubbly - especially one celebrating your girlfriends, so bring on some pink bubbly champagne or make your own fun red sangria. Want to put your mixologist talents to the test? Try creating a signature Galentine’s Day cocktail with a cute name for some extra flair! Not a fan drinking? No problem! You can also swap out the champagne for some bubbly soda or make your own pink drink mocktail (pink lemonade is always a hit). Just make sure you have some cute glasses so you can toast to your gal pals and get those cheers boomerangs in!


Cookies!

The most important part of throwing a Galentine’s Day Cookie Swap Party (other than your galentines ofc) is the cookies! The sweetest way to show your girls you love and appreciate them is with sweets, so bake your fave cookie recipe and get ready to share. The whole point of the Cookie Swap Party is that everyone brings their own cookies to trade with one another, so make sure everyone knows what’s up and has a recipe ready to go! You can also have everyone sign up so there are no doubles because the more cookie variety, the better! 


Snacks for the SNACKS

There will be a lot of snacking going on all night long - guaranteed, but you may also want to provide something more than just cookies.  How about ordering a pizza or indulging in everyone’s favorite savory finger food - fries!


Bumpin' Tunes

Okay, it’s time to compile your fave #girlpower, post breakup empowerment, and boss babe songs to create the ultimate Galentine’s Day playlist! We also recommend throwing in some of your ladies’ fave throwbacks because there’s nothing that gets girls dancing and singing more than a couple of classics. 


Throw on the Chick Flick

Turn on your fave cheesy rom-com or any light-hearted movie to set the mood for the night. There’s a very high chance your movie of choice may become background sound to your laughter and girl talk but it’s always nice to start off with a movie to get everyone comfortable (especially if there are some new friendships blossoming in the room).  Try choosing a movie with some sweet eye candy because girls love bonding over cuties!
