Whether you are in a couple or happily single, there are plenty of options for a Valentine's Day party. You can have a silly party, a sexy party, a matchmaking party, a dinner party, or a party for two. It can be a party to bring your Valentine… or meet a Valentine!
Or if you don't like Valentine's – have an anti-Valentine's party. Just turn things up a notch or two, send up the romantic ideals, overdress and ham it up acting out romantic scenes and scripts.
Have a look at the costume and decorating ideas below. For Valentine's gifts, including romantic gifts, see BCL Valentine's Day Gift ideas.
Valentine's Party Decorations & Catering
Valentine's day is all about red, pink, purple and white – and hearts!
Costumebox Party Supplies – originally a costume store, Costumebox now has an extensive range of decorations, tableware, party invitations, balloons, cake supplies and more, where you can shop by theme, occasion, colour. Check out their Valentine's Day selection
Valentine's Party Activites
Hold a trivia with questions about those famous romantic movies – Gone with the Wind, Casablanca and so on. Act them out. Or “who said…” Or “what's the next line…”
Use one of these movies as your theme and have everyone dress up and act as one of the characters. You might find some of the non-romantic supporting characters are the favourite characters.
