Handling Last Minute Valentine Plans

Valentine's Day is this week, which means lots of people are probably scrambling to plan a last-minute Valentine's Day date. Often out of being too busy with work, some couples simply forget to make plans for February 14.

Unfortunately when you wait until the last minute, you're left with the remnants of the chic gifts and flowers. But don't panic! You can still save the day with amazing although last-minute deals. Here, some super sweet and simple last-minute date ideas for any couple that forgot to make plans ahead of February 14.

Serve Breakfast in Bed

Why wait till the evening to celebrate with your special someone? For semi-lazy couples who prefer pajamas to pants, breakfast in bed is the perfect way to celebrate Valentine’s Day. Not to mention making your partner food is a guaranteed way to sink more in your partner’s heart. Conjure a decadent dish or turn your favorite foods into hearts with the help of a cookie cutter.

Behave like Tourists

You two may have lived in your town for years, but that doesn’t mean you’ve seen everything it has to offer. Hop in the car and spend the day exploring the place you live. Who knows, you may end up finding a new favorite restaurant for date night.

Document Your Love

If you and your partner have been dating for a while, you’ve probably collected a fair amount of photos, ticket stubs, and other relationship mementos. Rather than tossing them in the trash, organize them in a scrapbook. This crafty trip down memory lane is the perfect way to celebrate the day of love.

Pamper Each Other

A couple’s spa day sounds nice, but expensive. Instead, enjoy some DIY treatments at home. From massages to bubble baths, these activities will make you two feel rested, rejuvenated, and extra affectionate by the end of the day.

Book a Stay

Spending a night away from your home may be all you need to rekindle your love and rejuvenate in the moment. You can easily book a hotel online on one of the hotel portals like Jovago.com.

Break a Sweat

They say the couple that sweats together stays together. Put that theory to the test by visiting a gym on Valentine’s Day. Not only will you feel great, but it will give you an excuse to indulge later that night.

Snap a Few Shots

Borrow a digital camera and take turns photographing each other. Switch up the outfits and locations to give your shots some variety. Then, when the day is done, you can frame your favorite photos and gift them to one another.

Make Dinner for Two

Sure it may seem cliche, but cooking together is an amazing opportunity to bond. To make things a little more fun, recreate the first meal you had together.

Pass the Popcorn

Take your Netflix night to the next level. Darken the living room with curtains, and serve snacks in movie theatre-style packages. Sure it may seem simple, but these extra touches are sure to turn your cinephile on.

Host a Game Night

Chances are you aren’t the only couple that forgot to make plans for Valentine’s Day. Gather all your friends, whether or not they’re single or taken, and enjoy a night of friendly competition.
