A Galentine's brunch invitation should say it's a celebration of friends, give the date (Galentine's Day is February 13, a Saturday in 2027), the time and place, and the plan: mimosa bar, potluck, gift swap or a café booking. Add what to wear or bring and an RSVP date. Below is wording for brunch at home, potluck and restaurant brunches, in funny, heartfelt and classy tones.

What Is Galentine's Day?

Galentine's Day is celebrated on February 13, the day before Valentine's Day, as a day to celebrate female friendship. The idea comes from a 2010 episode of the TV show Parks and Recreation, in which Leslie Knope hosts a breakfast for her friends. Brunch is still the classic way to celebrate, and in 2027 February 13 falls on a Saturday, which makes a late-morning brunch easy to plan.

What to Include on a Galentine's Brunch Invitation

  • The headline: make it clear it's a celebration of friends.
  • Date and time: "Saturday, February 13, 11 a.m." Brunch usually runs two to three hours.
  • Place: your home, a café booking or a friend's garden.
  • The plan: mimosa bar, waffle station, potluck brunch, flower-arranging, a gift swap.
  • What to bring or wear: "wear pink", "bring a $10 gift", "bring a brunch dish".
  • Who's invited: "the girls", "all our favorite women", or "friends of every kind".
  • RSVP date: especially if you are booking a table.

Hosting Tips That Belong on the Invitation

A few practical lines save you a dozen questions in the group chat. If you are hosting at home, say whether there is parking or how to get in ("buzz 4B, we're on the top floor"). If brunch runs into the afternoon, give an end time so friends with plans can leave without feeling rude: "Brunch from 11 to 2, stay as long as you like." If you are splitting costs for a café booking, say so on the invitation rather than at the table. Mention any dietary choices you are already planning around, such as a gluten-free waffle batch or a non-alcoholic mimosa option, so nobody has to ask.

Think about who is on the list, too. Galentine's started as a celebration of women friends, but many groups now invite every close friend, including non-binary and male friends. A line like "for all my favorite people" keeps it open, while "girls only" is fine if that is the plan. Either way, being clear on the invitation prevents hurt feelings later.

Finally, give the brunch a small focus. A shared activity, a toast or a gift swap gives the morning a center, and it gives you a natural line for the invitation and the voice message: "Bring a $10 gift and your best compliment."

Text and Group-Chat Versions

  • "Galentine's brunch at mine, Sat Feb 13, 11. Who's in?"
  • "Mimosa bar confirmed. Bring a $10 gift if you want in on the swap!"
  • "Reminder: wear pink tomorrow!"
  • "Booked a table for 10. Please reply on the invite so I can confirm."
