5 Things Every Galentine's Day Party Needs

Thank you to Jackson Morgan for sponsoring this post. Please sip responsibly. 

Don't tell my hubby but I think I'm starting to love Galentine's Day even more than Valentine's Day. I love all the pink and hearts! And who doesn't love an excuse for a girls night? If you're hosting a Galentine's Day party with your best gals (and you totally should), here's what you need to get.

1. Donuts

Much like this Galentine's Day party  that we featured, pink and red Valentine's day donuts are a must have for any Galentine's Day party. I picked these up from our local donut shop and added my own Valentine's Day sprinkles on top while they were still hot. You can find holiday sprinkles on Amazon, Walmart, or Michaels usually.

2. Milkshakes

Trust me when I say, your girlfriends will love these! I love Jackson Morgan peppermint for the holidays and that includes Valentine's Day. Last year we did Salted Caramel for Valentine's Day but this year I wanted to switch it up. I made these peppermint milkshakes and they were to die for. Seriously so delicious, any time of year. Not to mention Jackson Morgan is also available in the cutest little mini bottles which make the perfect party favors for the 21+ crowd.

Chocolate Peppermint Milkshakes

3-4 Scoops Chocolate Ice Cream
1/4 Cup Jackson Morgan Southern Cream in Peppermint Mocha
Top with Whipped Cream and Sprinkles! 

3. Flowers

I got these stunning flowers for this Galentine's Day party and this time I knew Galentine's Day would not be complete without a showstopping bouquet. Who says the boys have to buy the flowers? We have better taste anyway.

4. Backdrop

I'm a strong believer in party backdrops. They really elevate a party and they don't have to be complicated or expensive. We printed this one from Cue the Confetti for less than $10 at Staples. Not only does it look great behind the table, but it's also great for snapping selfies and cheers boomerangs with those delicious Jackson Morgan shakes.

5. Sparkles

When you're celebrating your girlfriends, you should always have a little sparkle. I used a gold sequin table runner, {which was a great purchase by the way, I use it all the time} down the table and some gold mercury glass votives. The pink metallic heart balloons were a great addition too.
