Love is all you need, they say. Make it a priority more often to show your love how you really feel – at home. Relationship Expert, April Davis walks us through how to create the perfect date night in that can be just as romantic and intimate as a night on the town!
10 Step Guide to Creating the Perfect Date Night In:
Set the Mood:
Begin by establishing the right atmosphere by creating a romantic ambiance. Turn on the fireplace, the lights down low and light some candles.
Romantic Decor:
Accessorize your space with decorations that exude romance and warmth; think roses, candles, soft lighting, and cozy blankets.
Music
Create a love-infused playlist featuring your favorite songs. You can add any songs that remind you of your partner for an extra touch.
Dress to Impress:
Put on your favorite, comfortable, and stylish outfit while adding a hint of something red or pink to get in the festive mood. Red symbolizes passion, love and desire, and people wearing red are consistently rated the most attractive.
Beverages:
Mix up your favorite drink, whether you bought their favorite wine or crafted a perfect margarita, it’s the thought that counts.
Culinary Delights:
Whip up a meal together in the kitchen or elevate the experience by ordering your favorite meal from your beloved restaurant. Another option is to do a little bit of both. Let a restaurant do the heavy lifting and then you can add your own personal touch to make it perfect for you two.
Sweet Seduction:
Don’t forget to include some sweet treats for dessert because love is sweet, after all. Think along the lines of strawberries, whipped cream… you get the idea 😉
Entertainment for Two:
Selecting a romantic movie or show to watch together is always an option, but you risk getting tired early. A better more memorable option may be to engage in a playful game for some extra fun or our favorite activity is to ask the questions from this list, 36 Questions to fall in Love.
Pamper and Connect:
Unwind and strengthen your bond with a massage session or indulge in a soothing bubble bath to reconnect.
Cozy Up for Bedtime:
As the night winds down, slip into a cute outfit to end your night on a sweet note.
Creating the perfect date night is all about putting effort and thought into making the night special for your partner. By planning the menu, setting the mood, and creating fun activities, you can make the night unforgettable and show your partner how much you love each other.
