5 Galentine’s Day Side Quests That Will Actually Make It Out the Group Chat 💌✨

5 Galentine’s Day Side Quests That Will Actually Make It Out the Group Chat 💌✨

We all know the group chat is full of ideas. Big plans. Bold intentions. Zero follow-through.
This Galentine’s Day, we’re changing that.

These side quests are low-pressure, high-fun, and perfect for celebrating friendship without turning it into a full-blown production. No matching outfits required (unless you want to). No chaos, just vibes.

Let’s get into it.

🌸 1. Bloom Bar & Brunch

Soft florals, good food, main character energy

This one feels fancy but is secretly budget-friendly.

Hit up your local grocery store, florist, or flower wholesaler (wholesale if you want the best bang for your buck) and grab a mix of blooms and greenery. Set everything out on the table like a DIY flower bar and let everyone build their own bouquet.

To keep it easy:

  • Have each friend bring a brunch item (pastries, fruit, quiche, juice, mimosas)

  • Or cook your go-to brunch favorites together

You’ll leave with full bellies, cute bouquets, and photos that look like you planned this weeks ago.

🎬 2. Movie & Munchies

Rom-coms, comfort food, zero shame

Pick a chick flick or rom-com and turn it into a themed night by making the food you see in the movie. Yes, this is as fun as it sounds.

Make it a group effort:

  • Each friend brings a dish, snack, or drink

  • Bonus points if it matches the movie (pizza, pasta, milkshakes, wine—whatever fits)

Think: cozy blankets, commentary over the plot, and everyone pretending they don’t know every line already.

💻 3. PJs & PowerPoints

Cute pajamas. Unhinged opinions.

This is a Galentine’s Day classic for a reason.

Everyone shows up in their cutest pajamas, pours a drink, and presents a PowerPoint on a topic of their choosing. The more dramatic, the better.

Some undefeated topic ideas:

  • Why love is a scam

  • Why Aria and Ezra should NEVER have ended up together

  • Red flags we ignored but absolutely shouldn’t have

  • Ranking fictional men who would ruin your life

No professionalism allowed. Messy slides encouraged.

🎲 4. Game Night & Girl Talk

Laughs, chaos, and oversharing

Keep it simple and nostalgic.

Have each friend bring their favorite board or card game, anything from Uno and Phase 10 to card games that reveal way too much about everyone at the table.

Between rounds, the conversation will naturally turn into:

  • Life updates

  • Dating stories

  • Career wins

  • “Remember when…” moments

It’s less about winning and more about spending real, uninterrupted time together.

🎂 5. Cake & Sip

Sweet treats, creative chaos

This one is for the girls who love a little activity with their dessert.

Order a DIY Cake Decorating Kit from Fueled by Flour, cue up a playlist, and add your favorite drinks, wine, mocktails, sparkling water, whatever fits the vibe.

Everyone decorates their own cake, no rules attached:

  • Make it cute

  • Make it chaotic

  • Make it emotionally expressive

You’ll end the night with cake, laughs, and proof that perfection is overrated.

💖 The Real Win

Galentine’s Day doesn’t need to be complicated to be memorable. Pick one side quest, set a date, and commit. That’s it.

Because friendship deserves to be celebrated—and this time, let’s actually make it out the group chat.

✨ Which side quest are you choosing first?
