National Best Friend’s Day is just around the corner on Tuesday, June 8th, 2021. Whether you are celebrating together or apart, we’ve got some fresh ideas to try with your bestie!

Celebrating Together:

Take a Trip Down Memory Lane

If you’ve been friends forever, you’ve made thousands of memories together, and what better way to celebrate than by recreating the past! Find a cute (or hilarious) photo of you from the past, and recreate it by wearing the same outfits and recreating your poses. 

Have a Bestie Photoshoot

You’re already dressed your best so you might as well take some pictures together! Pick a fun location in your city to take some fabulous photos – what’s a better way to celebrate?

Picnic in the Park

Head out to your favourite local park for an afternoon picnic. You can stop at your favourite local cafes, restaurants, or bakeries to pick up drinks and treats to enjoy in the sun together. 

 Sip & Paint Activity

If you love art and being creative, you have to try Sip & Paint – enjoy a glass of wine while you follow an artist’s step-by-step tutorial to create a piece of art. Choose from different photo options such as a sunset, or even a photo of you both!

Gifting – Modern BFF Charms

If you love the idea of matching your bestie, but want a more modern take on classic best friend’s charms, head to your local crystal shop to pick out matching jewelry to both commemorate your friendship and bring you both good energy.

Celebrating Apart:

Have a FaceTime or Zoom Date

Even though you can’t physically be together on Best Friend’s Day, you don’t have to be alone! Get dressed up and schedule a virtual friend’s date to catch up and celebrate together.

 Throw a Netflix Party for Two

Are you & your BFF movie buffs? Host a movie marathon using Netflix Party, where you can watch your favourite movies together on Netflix, with the added bonus of a video chat feature all in one!

 Sip & Paint Activity

You can still partake in this activity if you are celebrating virtually! Many local artists are offering Sip & Paint experiences online – you supply the bubbly, canvas, and paint, and the artist will walk you both through the painting process via Zoom. 

 Cookie Decorating

Send your BFF (and yourself) sugar cookies from a local bakery, that either spell out their name or simply the letters “BFF” that you can decorate together (virtually), using different coloured icing, toppings, and sprinkles. 

 Gifting – Custom Illustration

If you’re looking for a unique and sentimental gift for your bestie, have a custom illustration made of your favourite photo together created by your local graphic designer. They are sure to love such a thoughtful gift!

 Whether you’re celebrating together or apart this year, friendship should always be cherished & celebrated.
