Love week 2026 looked a little different this year. Heavily influenced by the truest Vogue article ever, because yes, having a boyfriend IS embarrassing, so this is how we celebrated: kicking things off with Galentine’s Day, friend first, candle lit and core engaged.
In collaboration with Flow Haven Studios, Reverie hosted a sold out Pilates & Candle Making Galentine’s Event in London; An immersive wellness experience designed for women who want more than just dinner and drinks. Think: pink and purple soy wax candles, custom fragrance blending, Pilates induced endorphins, and a room full of women choosing softness, creativity and connection.
Galentine’s Day has evolved. It’s no longer just cocktails and pouty group selfies, it’s intentional experiences featuring pouty group selfies, wellness, learning something new and leaving with more than you came with.
Dreamers began the evening by creating their own hand poured soy wax candles, choosing from Ashley’s curated library of fragrance oils to blend their own signature scent. From sweet and powdery to warm and woody, every candle reflected its creator’s personality.
Once poured, the creativity continued. Pink and purple hues set the tone for the evening, and dreamers decorated their candles with intention, turning each one into a keepsake of the night.
For those discovering Reverie for the first time, this is what we do best: transform candle making into a crafted experience. Not just a workshop but a memory.
As the candles began to set, dreamers moved into the studio space for a toning, grounding Pilates session led by the expert instructors at Flow Haven.
The class was designed to energise without overwhelm, slow, controlled movements, deep core engagement, and intentional breathwork. It was the perfect complement to the creative portion of the evening.
This dual format experience, creative workshop + movement class, is what made the event so powerful. It was participatory wellness.
By the end of the evening, cheeks were flushed, shoulders were relaxed, and every dreamer left carrying a beautifully fragrant candle they’d created themselves.
If Love Week 2026 affirmed anything, it’s that celebration being experiential is here to stay, with a communal focus on wellness.
