Getting Ready for Valentine’s Day

Valentine’s Day is the perfect occasion to commemorate your relationship with your partner. Still, haven’t decided what to do? Consider these Valentine’s Day date ideas for a stress-free celebration your partner will love.

#1 Travel Back in Time

Re-create your first date! This is a great idea for couples who have been together for a while. Travelling back in time brings back those exciting moments when you were first getting to know each other. Grab a coffee at that same cafe or go for a walk through the park where you met. This is the perfect opportunity to reflect on how far the two of you have come. Depending on what your first date was, you may even be able to bypass all of the reservation craziness!

#2 Cozy time at home

Reservations on Valentine’s Day can be hard to come by. Try recreating your partner’s favorite dish at home! Cooking will help you bond and there are no other people in the kitchen to distract you from what really matters. After dinner is over, relax on the couch with a new Netflix series or a romantic favorite, like the Notebook. No idea what to cook? Take a look at these romantic meal suggestions from Country Living. With over 40 different dishes, there is something for every taste palette.

#3 Give a gift

You can never go wrong with traditional gifts like chocolates, flowers or watches.
