Baddie Besties Who Painted The Town Red On Galentine’s Day 2026
It's official: Galentine's Day is the best holiday spinoff (sorry Friendsgiving!) that brings gal pals together for an epic night of laughter, good eats (and treats), flowing drinks, and memory-making with sisterhood, self-love, and sincerity at the heart of the fun-filled festivities.
The popular trend can be traced back to hit TV show Parks and Recreation where character Leslie Knope (Amy Poehler) coined the name in a 2010 episode, setting the stage for the pre-Valentine's Day obsession.
This year the girls went ALL OUT with spectacular events like Ari Fletcher's Star-studded 'With Love: REMEDY' Galentine's affair rooted in beauty, intention and connection.
The invite-only event took over Bloom Bar in the heart of Atlanta's Buckhead neighborhood, where guests basked in sisterhood, self-love and affirmations on a special night designed to make women see.
“I think we glorify Valentine's Day as something between people who are together,” Fletcher said BOSSIP.
“And I wanted to spread love to my homegirls, just women. Everyone deserves to feel beautiful from the inside out.”
For Fletcher, the evening served as a reminder that celebration can exist outside of couples, creating intentional moments for women to gather, connect and uplift each other.
Bursting with good vibes, guests enjoyed beauty moments, themed cocktails, and curated activations while mingling with tastemakers, movers, and notable attendees such as hairstylist to the stars Arrogant Tae, recording artist LightSkinKeisha, and fashion designer Shane Justin.
Other notable Galentine's Day events included Elly B's 'In Her Presence' affair and Brown Sugar BabeGalentine's Brunch filled with love, laughter and a little magic from Brown Sugar Babe.
To celebrate friendship, femininity and being THAT girl, BSB (known for its swoon-worthy scents) treated guests to delicious food (and desserts), themed cocktails, eye-catching photo moments, and an innovative confessional experience, raising the bar for next year's Galentine's Day events.
