Celebrating Galentine’s Day with The British Hamper Company

03 Feb 2025

Galentine’s Day, celebrated on the 13th of February, is the perfect occasion to show your best friends how much you appreciate them, whether they’re long-time childhood friendships or new friendships. Galentine’s is all about love, laughter, gratitude and being together. And what better way to celebrate than with a thoughtful, handpicked Valentine’s Hamper?

What is Galentine’s?

Originally made popular by the hit TV show Parks and Recreation, Galentine’s is a celebration of friendships amongst women, expressed through thoughtful gestures and fun girly activities - unlike Valentine's Day, which focuses on romantic love.

How to celebrate Galentine’s Day?

There are so many enjoyable and memorable ways to celebrate with your girls! It could be a Facetime call, a fun activity out or a cosy, relaxed night in. 

Here are a few ideas you can share with your friends.

-            Host a Galentine’s dinner. Gather your best friends for a cosy candle-lit dinner, complete with delicious cocktails and gourmet food. Add a girly touch with balloons and banners to create a fun, celebratory atmosphere.

-            Arrange to go pottery painting (a tradition of mine) - a fun and creative way to spend the day, enjoying a good gossip while painting unique pieces like funky glasses. A wholesome activity.

-            A games night – everyone brings their favourite board game, pours a glass of wine, and enjoys an evening filled with laughter and friendly competition.

-            Plan a pampering day- whether you visit the spa or relax at home with face masks, candles and soothing music.

-            Send a thoughtful gift- whether it’s a surprise hamper or a personalised hamper, a small gift can show how much you care.

-            Challenge your friends to a bake-off -  pick a dessert to create and choose a winner. The best part? Enjoying all the delicious treats together at the end of the night!

-            Swap Galentine’s – this thoughtful idea takes a bit of prep but has a big sentimental impact. Draw names from a hat and write down your five favourite things about them. It’s a cherished tradition my friends and I enjoy every year.
