Best Things To Do on Valentine’s Day Besides Dinner
Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and celebrating can be tricking for some. I mean yes dinner is great and so are chocolates (yum), but there are a ton more things we can do to celebrate your love. Let’s think outside the chocolate box and ask yourself: What do you enjoy doing together? How long have you and your significant other been together?
There’s really no right way to celebrate Valentine’s Day, but if you and your love want to try something new consider these ideas for February 14; you never know you might stumble upon a new past time you both enjoy.
Make a Romantic Breakfast
Who says you have to celebrate by going out to dinner, why not spend Valentine’s Day with breakfast in bed or brunch can be way more romantic and you don’t even have to dress for it. Go ahead and pop the champagne and make those heart shape pancakes!
Take a Romantic Walk
So, after your done having your romantic breakfast leave the dishes for later and take a walk around your neighbourhood. Try taking a different route and point out any new things you notice. It’s a great way to get in an easy work out and you can always shower together afterwards.
Bake/Cook Something Up Together
As a baker myself I love this idea, try out a new Valentine’s Day recipe. With so many websites out there for reference pick one, make it and then feed each other the end results.
You can also check out my dessert recipes as well.
Hit up your local cinema
Check out the latest movies showing in your area on Valentine’s Day and share a bag of popcorn. Who knows maybe your hands will go in simultaneously?
Stream romantic movies
Don’t feel like leaving the house no problem, snuggle up on the couch grab some snacks and settle in for a movie marathon. Here the options are endless from comedy to romance so sit back and relax and stay in this Valentine’s Day.
Set up an indoor picnic area
Set up an area in your home grab your picnic basket and fill it with your favourite wine, meat and cheeses. Don’t forget the dessert too. Set the mood by placing lit candles all around and play some romantic music.
Love notes
Set up love notes throughout the house for your love to find. You can make it a scavenger hunt for them to find or just little reminders around the house telling them how much you love and appreciate them this Valentine’s Day.
Go to a local cafe
Support local and go to a cafe in your neighbourhood. Grab your favourite drink and share a dessert.
Book a night to yourselves
Book a hotel for the night and just stay in. It will feel like you’re getting away without leaving your city. Use all the amenities and spoil yourselves with room service this Valentine’s Day.
Wine Experience
Enjoy a wine tasting experience. Check out any of the local wineries and spend the day sampling some of the finest wine in your area. Some of them may even offer lunch or charcuterie so make a day of it.
These are my recommendations but, no matter how you celebrate Valentine’s Day make it fun and memorable for both of you.
XOXO,
Mari
