Whole world is gearing up for THE day of love, this is the day to impress your crush, confess about your feelings; this is the day to make your significant other swoon over grand, extravagant gestures. Everyone wants to go out of their way, go above and beyond to make a Valentine’s Day impression that will be everlasting in their love-interest’s memories. But, not everyone is all about those larger than life gestures, the most important thing is to spend some quality time with the love of your life, right?
It’s not always about the spends or giant gestures, sometimes it’s all about having a nice bond where you two can enjoy each other’s company. Don’t feel like following the entire world in order to make Valentine’s Day special, you can have your own definition of it – here’s a guide to how to enjoy a no-spend valentine’s day!
Date Setup at Home
The restaurants are buzzing, the diners, the cafes, everything is packed in the evening – on V’Day it’s not just hard but impossible to get a table unless you had planned for it a month ago, but we don’t have to listen to the crowd, how about a cozy date setup at home?
You can light up those warm vanilla-scented candles, get some everlasting dried arrangements to set up the table, bring in your best ramen bowls and voila! A cozy night for just the two of you
Karaoke Night
We’re all shy, timid bedroom/bathroom singers but why shy away from our significant other? This is the night to show off all your musical talents (as we call it), sing out loud Ed Sheeran and Beyonce’s bests, dance to the rhythm of jazz, throw in some random K-Pop in there and there you have it, a musical night for the love-birds
DIY Gifts for Each Other
Unless your significant other is expecting a diamond ring, this idea is pretty cool. Instead of spending so much time and money trying to find the perfect gift for bae, how about you make it yourself? A scrapbook of your pictures together, a beautiful wall hanging, or even candles, these all can be made at home and they require very little effort, it’s all about the fun you guys are gonna have together, eh?
Baking/Cooking Together
Baking/Cooking together is perhaps one of the most romantic things you can do with your partner, it’s so much fun!!! Make a Valentine’s Day special cake or your partner’s favorite dessert, challenge yourself or each other, let’s have a cook-off or a baking duel!
Cuddle and Movie Night
I’ve saved the best for last, it’s not always easy to find some time to just relax around our busy schedules, so take the time and opportunity to just stay in and relax. Order some takeaway and get under the blanket, cozy up and enjoy a very cheesy romantic comedy or an action movie or a documentary, whatever you guys are into!!!
These ideas aren’t exclusive to Valentine’s Day though, these can also be date-night ideas where you two decide to stay in and spend some time together. Gestures aside, love is all what counts. Oh, and if you’re looking for those everlasting dried arrangements, we’ve got a dedicated collection, check it out!
