Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and it’s a great way to show the person you love how you feel about them. It is the only day that you show your appreciation by showering your crush with gifts and loving gestures. One such gesture is the Valentine’s dining experience. Either you plan it together or you can surprise your crush with a romantic dinner.
If you plan the romantic dinner together, you will be able to exchange ideas and prepare a night that you will both enjoy. The location will be the first thing you will have to decide. Will you have a romantic dinner at home, reserve a table at a restaurant, perhaps create a rooftop experience, or set up a picnic table in a park?
If you’re planning it on your own, here are some ideas.
You can reserve a table at a restaurant and ask them to decorate it with red and white linens. Bring your own bouquet of red roses to place on the table, which your crush can take home. Add a personal touch with a romantic gift. Give the gift to the waiter ahead of time so he can place it on the table, ready for when you both arrive. It doesn’t have to be a big gift, but something small and subtle. A necklace or a pair of earrings is a great way to surprise your crush. You can also opt for a personalized gift like a photo of the two of you in a frame or perhaps on a chalkboard mosaic. It is a wonderful way to show your love.
If you are planning your romantic dinner at home then you have no restrictions. You can place the dining table in the center of the dining room. Lay out a white tablecloth with a red doily and two bright red plates. Use the best catering equipment you have to impress your crush. Put the cutlery next to the lower plates and use the best plates you have. As a centerpiece, you can place a dozen red candles of various sizes on a glass plate and light them. It will create a beautiful bright atmosphere. Scatter some red rose petals on the tablecloth and runner. Get creative with your napkins and fold them into interesting shapes like hearts or, if you’re more daring, swans. Get some nice chocolates, add a heart tag with a romantic date, and place one on each of the respective cutlery.
Above all, enjoy the company of your crush. It is about the celebration of love.
