What Is Galentine's Day?
Just like Valentine's Day, Galentine's Day is for celebrating your relationships, however this holiday is focused more so on platonic friendships between the women in your life. It's typically celebrated the day before Valentine's Day on the 13th of February, however, can be commemorated both on and after Valentine's Day.
Much like the original love-filled celebration, there is also a focus on heart shaped decorations and vibrant pink and red colour tones. So, get your gals together and celebrate in style!
Set Up For A Galentine's Disco Themed Party
Put your dancing shoes on and dance away the night with your nearest and dearest by setting up the perfect disco party. From eye-catching party decorations to colourful party tableware, you can transform your home into the most exclusive disco that will have your Galentine's ready to party.
Galentines Day Party Decorations to Show Love to Your Guests
The first step to decorating any disco is of course to make sure you have space for a dance floor. Once you've established a disco space it's time to get decorating.
You can't have a disco without a glistening disco ball. These decorations are a classic symbol of discos and are the perfect centrepiece to any dance party. They are used to reflect light in all different directions, creating a spectacular light show. Tie your Galentine's disco together with gorgeous pink and red decorations such as our hanging chandelier. With a gorgeous, fringed surface, this chandelier brings visual intrigue and a textural charm that will transform any dance party into a whimsical affair. It also adds to a great photo backdrop!
If you're struggling to come up with ideas for your disco decorations, the Disco Party Balloon Decoration Pack has you covered! This handy pack contains a number of decorations, including balloons, a "disco party" garland, streamers and more! With a whole variety of decorations, you can set up for your disco party with ease, knowing that disco decorations are cohesive and coordinate with each other.
Vibrant Table Setting For Galentine's Day
Whether you're hosting a sit-down meal before the festivities of the disco begin or want to make sure your guests have a place to rest their dancing feet, a well-set table will help you create the perfect disco ambience for your space.
Everything You Need For a Galantines Day Table Setting:
- Table Cloth
- Table Runner
- Placemats
- Champagne and Cocktail Cups
- Ribbons
- Table Scatters
- Table Centrepieces
Start by decorating your table with pink and red table linen. These colours are classic when it comes to Valentine's Day due to their warm tones. Think of gorgeous pink placemats atop a vibrant red tablecloth for the perfect pairing of table linen that will bring style and a layer of protection for your dining table. It's also a good idea to create a centrepiece for your table.
Starting with a table runner as your base, you can position sparkling disco balls and shimmering cowboy hats as a whimsical centrepiece to your celebrations while also contributing to your disco theme.
As well as the decorative pieces, you should also shop for stylish Galentine's Day servingware. Serve up your Galentine's Day cocktails and mocktails in style with an Alpen Cocktail Glasses or celebrate with a champagne in the Alpen Champagne Flutes. You can take your servingware the extra mile by decorating your glasses with a pink ribbon for the perfect Galentine's Day touch.
When it comes to table decorations and centrepieces, faux flowers in a jar, candles and personalised name tags are perfect!
Party Food And Sweet Treats For A Delicious Galentines Celebration
Everyone knows the best way to the heart is through the stomach so it's very important to make sure your guests are well fed! If a disco isn't really your style, you and your friends can celebrate with a delicious dinner party.
No meal is complete without a sweet treat! A perfectly decorated cake is both delicious to eat and beautiful to look at. It can act as a centrepiece to your celebrations for you and your guests to indulge in after your meal or can be displayed tall and proud on a table - but make sure this is far away from the dancefloor we wouldn't want any of those dance moves from knocking over the masterpiece!

With gorgeous pink and red icing and sprinkles for the perfect finishing touch, this Valentines Cake oozes a romantic ambience for you and your friends to enjoy.
