Valentine’s Day. For some, it’s a night of candlelit dinners and awkward hand-holding. For the rest of us? It’s the perfect excuse to gather your mates, sink into the comfiest sofa known to humanity, and binge-watch romantic films that make you laugh, cry, and possibly swear off relationships altogether.
Whether you’re single, situationship’d, or just here for the snacks, we’ve got your ultimate Galentine's/Bro-entine's/Anti-Cupid Movie Marathon lineup—plus, some seriously sexy sofas from Sofa Club that will make your night even comfier.
The Ultimate Rom-Com Watchlist (Guaranteed to Distract You from Your Dying Houseplants)
1. When Harry Met Sally (1989)
The OG friends-to-lovers movie. Watch as Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal spend years pretending they don’t fancy each other, before finally giving in to fate (and a lot of sexual tension). Bonus points if you attempt the legendary fake orgasm scene at home.
2. Bridget Jones's Diary (2001)
A walking disaster in oversized knickers juggles bad decisions, questionable diary entries, and an unfairly attractive Colin Firth. Relatable? Too much. Essential viewing? Absolutely.
3. Notting Hill (1999)
Hugh Grant stumbles through life as an awkward bookshop owner until Julia Roberts walks in and turns his world upside down. Proof that maybe falling in love with a celebrity isn't an impossible fantasy. (But also, probably is.)
Comfy Sofas to Complete Your Ultimate Movie Night
What’s better than a good rom-com? Watching one from a sofa so plush, you may never leave. Lucky for you, Sofa Club has the ultimate lineup of loungers built for binge-watching, snack-spilling, and crying into a pizza.
1. The Marylebone Large Sofa in Soft Truffle
Big enough to fit all your mates and your emotional baggage, this dreamy number is the VIP section of your living room. Soft, stylish, and ready for some serious lounging.
2. The Nobu Large Sofa in Soft Cloud
If a cloud and a marshmallow had a baby, it would be this sofa. Prepare to disappear into the cushions and question all your past seating choices.
3. The Henley Double Corner Sofa in Gentle Cream
Got a big crew? This sofa is practically a bed. Perfect for when your “quick movie night” turns into a 5-hour deep dive into rom-com conspiracy theories (yes, all of them have the same plot).
4. The Clapham Double Corner Sofa in Roof Top
This one says: “I have my life together” (even if you absolutely do not). Luxe, comfy, and big enough for at least three people to dramatically faint onto when the movie gets too emotional.
5. The Savoy Large Sofa in Pebble Beach
The Rolls-Royce of sofas—perfect for a movie night that turns into an accidental all-nighter of deep chats and snack-fuelled debates over the best rom-com couple.
Final Thoughts: Dump the Date, Keep the Sofa
Let’s be real—Valentine’s Day is overrated. But a night with your best mates, a lineup of golden-tier rom-coms, and a sofa that basically hugs you back? That’s a 10/10 experience.
So, forget the fancy restaurants, ignore your ex's “u up?” text, and settle into the cosiest night of your life—because love may be fleeting, but a damn good sofa? That's forever.
