To complete your immaculate Galentine's Day Garden Party, have a photo booth ready to go for your lovely ladies, so you can capture all the memories.Set up a backdrop with fun props like heart-shaped glasses, feather boas, and funny hats. You can use a polaroid camera for instant photos or set up a tripod with a smartphone. This is a great way for everyone to take a piece of the day home with them.
