A romantic date is a hallmark of Valentine's Day. A planned out date shows adoration, commitment, and willingness to invest in the relationship. Valentine dates, however, do not need to be expensive or particularly extravagant. You can even celebrate Valentine's Day in your home. Suitable for busybodies or professionals, Valentines at home will offer you and your loved one convenience and ease of mind, while still being romantic and sensual.

How To Plan A Romantic Valentines Day Date At Home

Picnic Right at the Fireplace: Before your loved one arrives from work, fire up the fireplace and place the sofa closer to it. Show that you paid attention to your partner's needs by bringing out their favorite wine or champagne. Bring out cherries, strawberries, or pomegranates to bring out the flavor in the drink. Make a home-cooked Valentine's Day meal, one that includes appetizers and desserts. If you are not a viable cook, then order out. Place all the food on fancy plates and get rid of any containers that will give the setup away. No one will be the wiser. For a particularly romantic touch, introduce your partner to a handwritten letter once done with dinner.

Spa Nights At Home: Fill your bathtub with warm water and place a couple of rose petals. Here's a tip – roses tend to be expensive during this time of year. You can ask your florist for a box of plain petals. These petals will be cheaper than the stemmed kind. Have a couple of your partner's favorite chocolates to nibble on by the side of the bathtub. While they are in the shower, ready the bedroom. Place a couple of warm, clean towels in the room. Bring a basin of hot water and a number of spa supplies. This may include body exfoliators, moisturizers, and body oils. This idea is suitable right after dinner.
