There’s nothing I love more than setting a table for the women who make life in Rancho Santa Fe feel richer, lighter, and infinitely more beautiful. And Galentine’s Day is the perfect excuse to slow down, gather intentionally, and celebrate those relationships that fill our cups.
Here are a few of my favorite ways to create a meaningful, elevated Galentine’s gathering...many thoughtfully sourced right here in our special community:
1. Set a Soft, Romantic Foundation
Blush, ivory, and soft whites create a palette that feels fresh, feminine, and timeless. Layer delicate textures and sculptural elements to add depth without overwhelming the table, with some curated decor from @floral_palette
2. In
troduce a Fun, Participatory Theme
I love a good “Favorite Things” theme: everyone brings and shares something they adore, whether it’s a beauty must-have, a travel essential, or a little indulgence. It instantly creates connection and ensures everyone arrives dressed for the occasion.
3. Layer Thoughtful Details
Designed with help from @amiupyourstyle, the table is layered with intention. @potterybarn tableware, linen napkins, polished flatware, and restrained florals create a setting that feels collected, refined, and quietly luxurious.
4. Create Moments for Connection
Handwritten place cards, shared desserts, or a simple toast invite meaningful conversation and moments that linger long after the table is cleared.
5. Sweet & Savory, Done Simply
Fresh crêpes made on site from @isabelle_briens_frenchpastry bakery paired with local greens sourced from @chinofarms
A gathering that feels welcoming, relaxed, and beautifully lived-in always leaves the deepest impression.
Cheers to strong women, heartfelt conversations, and friendships that make every season sweeter.
