Though celebrated as the ‘Day of Love,’ Valentine’s Day could also be used to celebrate friendship. Here are some creative and exciting Valentine’s Day party themes you could consider when celebrating this special day.
Classic Romance
Set the stage for a classic romance theme with red roses, candlelight, and soft music. Heart-shaped balloons, elegant table settings, and romantic lighting will help you set up the space.
Provide a menu featuring aphrodisiac foods like oysters, strawberries, and chocolate. Slow dancing, love song karaoke, and writing love letters to each other may be done.
Movie Night
Organize a Valentine’s Day Movie Night for a more relaxed and homely celebration. Choose some great romantic comedies or classic love stories to play, like Kissing Booth or The Notebook.
You can make a comfy movie area with blankets and many pillows. You may serve popcorn, candy, and themed food like heart-shaped cookies. You could even have a DIY photo booth ready with props from famous romantic movies, in which you can take pictures.
Masquerade Ball
A Masquerade Ball brings mystery and class to a Valentine’s theme party. Guests should be invited in formal wear and masked. It would help to choose rich, luxurious hues such as gold, burgundy, and deep purple to bring color to the decor.
Set up a dance area, hire a DJ, or prepare a playlist of love and dance-worthy songs. Elegant appetizers and champagne, maybe even a mask-making station for guests to create their own, round off the picture.
80’s Love Bash
Get your guests grooving with an ’80s Love Bash, which is a perfect Valentitne’s day party theme or adults. Ask guests to come dressed in their finest ’80s attire – think big hair, neon colors, and leg warmers. Mix it up with ’80s love songs and dance hits.
Decorate with bright colors, disco balls, and lots of hearts. Offer ’80s snacks like cheese puffs, soda, and candy. Host a dance-off or karaoke contest to some of the most popular ’80s love songs.
Chocolate and Wine Tasting
Make your Valentine’s Day party theme elegant and indulgent by hosting a Chocolate and Wine Tasting event. Set up different varieties of chocolates and wines at the tasting stations.
Provide pairing suggestions with an explanation of the flavor and origin of each. Add some finesse to the setting by incorporating dark tablecloths, candles, and flower vases. Add a touch of making their chocolate treats at a DIY chocolate-making station.
Game Night
A Game Night is a suitable theme for throwing a Valentine’s Day party and wanting something more engaging and enjoyable. Choose a few games in which everyone can participate, from old board games to party games like Charades or Pictionary.
Decorate with light, cheerful colors, and cute decorations. Pizza, chips, and dip are handy for snacks and offer thematically appropriate cocktails or mocktails. Add in some games dealing with love and relationships to give it that Valentine’s Day twist.
Love Around the World
Show love in all its cultures with a Love Around the World theme. Decorate different areas of the party space after other countries and their Valentine’s Day customs. Have an international buffet featuring cuisine and drinks from around the world and play music from around the globe.
You could even have a trivia game about love customs from different countries or have a cultural dance-off. It is an exciting and, at the same time, educative theme as guests will learn more about various other cultures.
Spa Night
Give your guests a lovely, indulgent, and fun Valentine’s Day Spa Night party experience. Create an atmosphere with dim lighting, soothing music, and aromatic candles—plan for various stations for facial, manicure, and massage treatments.
Provide comfortable, fluffy robes and slippers for the guests to wear. Offer healthy appetizers, including fruit platters, infused water, and herbal tea. This would be an ideal theme for a girls’ night or couples looking for a chill and pampering night.
