Valentine's Day is not only for lovers.

It is also a friendship and family feast.

This is also the greatest opportunity to meet new people.

So, let's start our Valentines party.

Invite your friends and ask them to invite their unmarried friends too.

If you have children, celebrate this holiday with them.

Think of different themes for your décor ; create invitation cards dedicated to the Valentine's Day party, a badge that you will give to your guests or ask them to dress a fun costume.

For Presents: Ask your guests to bring a fun gift that do not costs much than $5 or $10 and can be given to anybody (kids or adults, men or women) ; decorate a box and put it near the entry door. Have the guests put gifts there as they arrive. Plan to organize a lottery later in the evening and allot the gifts to your guests.

A supper-table is an excellent way to make your guests able to talk to everyone.

Organize a "potluck" and have people bring foods from different categories: main dishes (roastbeef, chicken wings, seafood, salmon, vegetables, pasta and potatoes salads, tomatoes and mozzarella, etc.), dessert (chocolate, pies, brownies) and beverages (alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks). Decorate the table with some flowers.

Create a bar area and include the drinks that your friends brought and prepare a punch bowl with alcohol and another one without alcohol. This kind of drink is really useful when you have many guests.

Set the musical mood: create some playlists with songs from your favorite CDs.

If you have fresh singles, do not include songs like "Without You" or "Fly Me To The Moon". Prefer latino music or set up a topic like "The 60's", "Disco" or "Motown".

Happy Valentine's Day :)
