Galentine's Day — the day before Valentine's Day. In the show " Parks & Rec," Leslie Knope says it best with, "ladies celebrating ladies."
The eve of Valentine's Day is the day to celebrate with your fav gal pals, both single and baed up. Don't get me wrong, I do still love the traditional Valentine's Day. The concept of V-Day is adorable and who doesn't love being showered with flowers and chocolates, but I think I like Galentine's Day just a bit more. On Galentine's Day, the pressure of Valentine's Day is gone and it's just a fun day to go out or stay in for the night with your girls. There are no reservations, no stress of what to wear just a fun night with friends.
Celebrate the holiday Galentine's Day this year because tbh no matter what, your girlfriends will always be your soul mates.
Here are nine reasons Galentine's Day will always be better than Valentine's Day.
1. You don't have to look nice
Come as you are, sweats, pj's, leggings; there's no dress code
2. You can drink all the wine you want
No one will judge if you and your girls finish a bottle..or seven
3. You can watch all the Nicholas Sparks movies
Or really any sappy romantic movies, my favorite is Safe Haven.
4. You can have the ultimate GNO
You don't have to stay in for Galentine's Day, go out to a nice dinner with your friends or go out dancing and get some drinks at the bars
5. You won't have to worry about Valentine's gifts
Galentine's gifts only, and you'll ALWAYS know what your friends want
6. You can gossip
Gossip with your friends, it's a perfect night to catch up and make some memories
7. You can throw a Galentine's Day party
Decorate and have Galentine's themed treats and drinks for a house party
8. You can have a spa day
Pamper yourself with face masks and manicures, you deserve it.
9. Last, but certainly not least, you can play the Galentine's Day Drinking Game
Happy Galentine's Day, it's only the best day of the year!
