Fun Ways to Celebrate Valentine's Day with Friends
Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to be just for lovers—celebrate with friends and family! There are so many fun things to do besides having dinner with your date on Valentine’s Day. You can get creative or just have a casual night in. This list compiles some fun new ideas to try with your pals!
Make Edible Art
Try dipping slices of pineapple or strawberries in melted chocolate. Half the fun is setting up the delicious ingredients and getting creative with how you combine it all together. You can arrange them like a bouquet and enjoy it with your friends or you can try it on your own and gift it to someone. This would seem extra special as a gift because it’s thoughtful and handmade.
Host a Dinner Party
Dinner parties are a fun way to get all your friends together. You can have each guest prepare a side or a dessert so the host doesn’t have to do all the cooking. You can play games afterward or just enjoy talking with your friends. Because it’s a Valentine’s Day dinner, you can have fun decorating and choosing festive dishes.
Go to the Movies
Some cute romantic comedies will be released in February, just in time for Valentine’s Day. Any sort of movie is fun to see with friends, but especially comedies. You can get a big group together for a fun night of dinner and a movie.
A Trip to the Spa
This suggestion might be more for a group of girls than a group of guys, but it’ll still be fun no matter who goes. Massages, facials, or mani/pedis are all great ways to unwind and show yourself some love for Valentine’s Day. It’s especially fun to go with a couple of friends so you can relax and enjoy it together.
Paint and Wine Classes
These are especially fun with friends or close family members. Getting to be creative and have fun while also getting to laugh at your loved one’s masterpiece is a great way to spend the holiday. The best part is you’ll have matching paintings that will serve as reminders of this fun date.
Decorate Cupcakes
If you’re not up to cooking for a whole bunch of people, you can bake cupcakes with some friends. If you don’t like cupcakes, then try brownies or cookies. This is a fun and cheap activity, and everyone can go home with some sweets. Decorate them with pink and red sprinkles to feel a little more festive.
Hopefully one of these ideas will inspire you to plan a fun Valentine’s Day with friends or family! It doesn’t matter who you celebrate with, as long as you do something that you’ll both enjoy and remember for years to come.
