Whether you've been together three months or three decades, it's no secret that coming up with some great Valentine's Day ideas can be stressful. It can be easy to put pressure on yourself to make Valentine's Day extra-special with a grand gesture or big present, but we're here to remind you that the most important Valentine's Day gift is time spent together. You've probably gone the traditional route so many times that you've run out of ideas anyway. We can help you "change things up just a bit" and even create excitement and passion in your relationship!
No matter how you choose to celebrate, we've rounded up a list of some of the absolute best things to do with your spouse, boyfriend, or girlfriend and outfits to wear for a memorable Valentine's Day 2022!
Go Wine/Beer Tasting
Spend the day or evening sampling a selection of local brews at a nearby brewery. This can be a great opportunity to learn new things about wine, while at the same time getting a chance to taste some excellent drinks and get a few bottles for later in the evening. If you don't like wine, you can go to a brewery for some great beer!
Go On A Weekend Trip
Every couple should splurge once in a while and spend the weekend, or just a night away. Order room service, watch a movie, jump in the hot tub, and sleep in. Find a cabin on Airbnb or splurge on a hotel room to remove yourself from the day-to-day grind. Book a place with access to activities and amenities you wouldn't otherwise have at home, like, say, a fireplace. You'll get out of your comfort zone and have a fabulous time doing it!
