Girlfriends. Gal-pals. Girl squad. Whatever you call your BFFs, the month has arrived to celebrate Galentine’s Day. And while making reservations out is always easy, why not host a fun Galentine’s brunch in?

Here are a few ideas for the perfect at-home Galentine’s Brunch:

1. Get in on the waffle (or other breakfast food!) charcuterie trend

ICYMI, charcuterie platters are literally all the rage. Think of it as a collective, organized mess, so no tedious work needed - just toss out your items and go. We love a waffle-themed platter (and these mini waffles truly only take 30 seconds each to make!), with all the fixings. Add dipping bowls of syrup, whipped cream, and chocolate, or up the ante with fresh fruit, eggs, and sausage or bacon. Supplies you’ll want to add to cart:

Dash x Sweethearts Pink Heart Mini Waffle Maker

14”X20” Acacia Wood Carving Board

Melanine Heart Shaped Bowl


2. Add a mimosa bar (and don’t forget a non-alcoholic sparkling option)

Nothing says brunch like a mimosa bar complete with favorite juice mixers (don’t be afraid to think outside the box a little on these!), cute champagne flutes, and a bottle of bubbly. Keep in mind the growing alcohol-free trend and make sure to stock up on a few af options for the bar too. Supplies you’ll want to add to cart:

Figural Hearts Reusable Straws - Room Essentials™

Several stemless champagne glasses bunched together

JoyJolt Milo Stemless Champagne Flutes Crystal Glasses - Set of 8 Glasses - 9.4oz

A set of glass carafes

JoyJolt Hali Glass Carafe Bottle Water or Juice Pitcher with 6 Lids - 35 oz - Set of 4


3. Include a yogurt parfait

A simple side dish that’s easy to execute for a Galentine’s brunch - yogurt parfait cups. Drop in vanilla yogurt, top with granola, add a layer of fresh fruit, place on a platter and voila!


4. Try a little chocolate fondue

Sooooo many of us have a fondue set taking up space in the pantry - Galentine’s is the perfect time to put it to use. Supplies you’ll want to add to cart:

Nostalgia Classic Retro 4-Tier 2-Pound Chocolate Fondue Fountain

A red fondue pot

ZWILLING 8-in Fondue Pot Set with 6 Forks, For Chocolate, Caramel, Cheese, Sauces and More

A red, heart-shaped plate

Valentine Stoneware Figural Heart Appetizer Plate Red - Threshold


5. Create a photo-worthy statement wall

Last but not least, don’t be shy to create a fun, photogenic statement wall for guests to pose in front of (if it doesn’t get posted to the ‘gram, did it really happen?). Think streamers, banners, and balloon arches, or go simple like pictured above with a few well-placed heart balloons. Supplies you’ll want to add to cart:

Big Dot of Happiness Be My Galentine - Galentine's Day Party Bunting Banner
