Ways to Celebrate Valentine's Day at Home

Happy Valentine's Day 2024! With Valentine's Day falling on a Wednesday this year it may be a little tricky to make a day of it. So, we've come up with a few ways to celebrate this romantic holiday, by planning a romantic date night that's more do-able and more memorable than any restaurant dinner, just from the comfort of your own homes. Read on to find out more...

Have an Indoor Picnic

Have an Indoor Picnic

With the February weather making it unable to enjoy an outdoor picnic in the garden, why not bring the picnic indoors and head to your living room.

Spread out on the living room floor with a gourmet spread and a bottle of bubbles. Do a little brainstorming into what food and drinks it is that your loved one enjoys the most and have a romantic night. Sometimes the gifts with a little thought behind them are much more appreciated than the expensive gifts!

Be sure to set the scene with a cheerful picnic blanket and pack a basket!

Become Mixology Masters

Become Mixology Masters

Channel your inner mixologist and shake up a few cocktails from that kitchen bar you probably haven't touched in ages. Impress your loved one with your mixology skills and it gives you two an excuse to turn the music up a little louder and dance like you're at your favourite bar.

Pick out your favourite ingredients and get going! Or, why not make an event of it - challenge each other to making themed cocktails or to use unique ingredients.

Create an at-home spa

Valentine's Day unfortunately falls on a Wednesday this year, so for those who cannot get the day off work - why not pamper yourselves at home. Trade off giving each other massages with stress-relieving oil, take a long bubble bath, and chill out with hydrating face masks. 

All it takes is a few candles, massage oil and some facial masks and you can create a night of pampering for you and your loved one to remember!

Plan a Games Night

Plan a Games Night

If Christmas was the last time you and your loved one got competitive with a boardgame, then this is the perfect idea for a date night this Valetntine's!

Pull out those old chess boards and challenge your partner to a board game duel. Pick games specifically made for two players like Scrabble, Chess or cards and have a night of fun!

Breakfast in Bed

Breakfast in Bed

Making breakfast in bed may be an oldie, but it's definitely a goodie. 

Surprise your loved one with their favourite breakfast in bed, whether it be a tower of fluffy American pancakes, a classic full English or a fancy eggs benedict.

Valentine's Day being on a Wednesday this year means its' the perfect opportunity to have a delicious breakfast in bed to set your loved one up for a great day at work! Treat them to breakfast in bed, and you could even keep the surprises coming with a homemade dinner once you're home!
