For those unfamiliar with Galentine's Day, it's the unofficial holiday created by Leslie Knope on Parks & Recreation that's all about celebrating female friendship. While Leslie celebrates the day on February 13, there's no reason that Galentine's Day can't be any day that you and your gal pals choose to hangout — sans men.

If you're looking for a Galentine's night in, we've rounded up the perfect list of movies that are all about laughs, love and friendship.

1. Clueless - 1995

Leave Clueless off a best Galentine's Day movie list? As if! The 90s classic that has Alicia Silverstone navigating the ups and downs of her Bel-Air high school is full of hilarious lines you and your bffs will be quoting all night long.

2. Bridesmaids - 2011

This rom-com isn't afraid to venture into raunchy territory at times, but at the heart of the movie is a story of friendship. Sure the girls take things to extremes at times, but who wouldn't want to be part of Lillian's (Maya Rudolph) bridal party?

3. The Edge of Seventeen - 2016

If you looked up "quirky" in the dictionary you'd probably see a picture of Haliee Steinfeld's character Nadine. The coming-of-age movie is about growing up and just how much love can complicate things — even between best friends.

9. Girls Trip - 2017

If Bridesmaids set the bar for rom-coms that weren't afraid to get a little gross at times, Girls Trip raised it a few notches. If you don't know the scene were talking about, then you're guaranteed to laugh and cringe when these ladies hit the streets of New Orleans.

11. Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants - 2005

This movie perfectly fits the Galentine's Day mold. Sure, the chances of you and your friends finding a magical pair of jeans isn't likley, but of course, the real magic is the bond between the friends.

12. Practical Magic - 1998

It might seem like romance would be a little easier if love potions and magic were real, but nope. The Owens sisters, two witches living in a small town, prove that love is complicated no matter how many spells you throw at it.

13. Mean Girls - 2004

The movie made a household name out of Lindsay Lohan and has become a movie classic/pop culture phenomenon at this point. Seriously, when a movie becomes so big that it gets its own Broadway show, well, that's pretty fetch.

14. Thelma & Louise - 1991

Perhaps the ultimate movie about women who are friends til the end. Thelma and Louise are two besties who get waaay in over their heads while on vacation.
