By  | 

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and there’s really no better day to show your fiancée just how much you care about her. If it’s true that it takes two to tango, then it’s also true that expressions of love need to be a well thought about decision on the part of both partners. Not that we’re against a fresh and sweet smelling bunch of roses, but how about making this Valentine’s Day extra special by going the mile? We’ve got 4 cute and romantic ideas that will sweep her off her feet and really impress her:

  1. Arrange an impromptu pre- wedding photography session

There’s a reason why pre-wedding photo shoots are so popular with couples these days. It’s a great way to share a few laughs, bond together and of course create some really special memories. If you would like to have a few photographs taken together but without the usual fuss of a perfect look, why not arrange an impromptu session with a candid photographer? That way you get all natural clicks, lots of smiles and plenty of brownie points. Since it is Valentine’s Day after all, add an extra romantic quotient by proposing on your knees and by using flowers and cut out hearts as props. It’ll be lots of fun too!

2. Sign up for a Class together

There’s always plenty to learn from your partner and if you both have different tastes and hobbies, that does not mean you two are incompatible. Since Valentine’s Day falls on a Sunday this year, it’s the perfect reason to sign up for a class together. For instance, if your fiancée loves baking, why not get messy and creative at a baking class taken by a renowned baker? Or if you two have talked about trying hiking, why not sign up for a mini adventure package? You’ll find plenty of great deals online. Besides the element of surprise, what will work in your favour is the thought that goes behind such a gesture.

3. Enjoy a romantic evening together with fine dining

If you’ve always wondered about fine dining and never really had the opportunity to try it out for yourself, why not take your fiancée along for a world class dining experience? Many fine dining restaurants offer an impressive selection of wines which add to the mood of the evening. If you make your reservations earlier, you may also be able to talk to the staff there about bringing a cake to your table on your cue. Just the fact that both of you will need to dress formally for the night adds a big element of excitement to your Valentine’s Day.

4. Pamper Yourselves

Just because it’s Valentine’s Day, it does not mean that you two have to put all your energy into solely going the creative way. You’ll find plenty of great offers just for couples especially at spa retreats and at other rejuvenation centres. Signing up for a couples package is a great way to relax and give your senses a thorough makeover. In fact, you’ll also find that such centres offer a one to two day getaway package that also includes organic meals, yoga sessions and the like. Since it is the weekend, there’s no better way to really pamper yourselves.
