Conversation topics & toast ideas
A core belief here at Lillie Gathers is that the most instagrammable, well-decorated party is empty without meaningful conversation. The job of the host is to curate an entire experience. We love Priya Parker’s concept of “15 Toasts” and try to do a version of it at every gathering we throw. The basic concept is that by the end of the night, each guest has to give a toast to a theme set by the host.
The obvious theme for a Galentine’s Day gathering: Friendship…

The “Bring 3 activity”
Each woman picks her favorite item under $10 and brings 3 of it — say, a lip balm or a pair of house slippers. Take turns presenting to the group why you picked it, then draw names. Whoever’s name is drawn gets to choose 3 other items to take home with them.
