Valentine Dates and what not to do

Today for Valentine's Day Daniel took me to a very nice expensive Italian restaurant. We had a reservation and the owner gave us the best seats available by the window where we could see the city skyline of Manila. The setting was beautiful and the food was incredible but it included a bottle of wine and we don't drink.

The menu was set because it was Valentines and they couldn't do anything else but what they had prepared for everybody. You could do a little adjustment here or there  but the cost was the same around $90.00 a plate plus tip and you got six different dishes brought to you including appetizers and desserts. I loved it, and love the fact that Daniel wanted to take me to the most requested restaurant for special occasion but I hated having to pay so much money for a bottle of wine we didn't drink but he didn't know what to expect so in other words, this is an excellent restaurant to come any other day than when they have a set menu. Live and learn.

Tonight l want to share some other fun Valentine Date ideas we could have done as well so maybe next year.

Valentine’s Date Night Ideas

The Cozy Concert: Check out local venues and find what up-and-coming concerts or bands are playing. Nothing sends love waves out like an intimate table for two while a performer croons acoustic ballads to you and your honey.

Spa Date: What could be more perfect than booking a couple’s massage at a local spa for your Valentine’s date? Not much, except for following it up with a couple’s pedicure! It’s the perfect way to relax and unwind. And make sure to have some chocolate covered strawberries available to snack on while your feet soak! I know of a place we can go. 

A Romantic Ride: Check out your local city’s page and find out if there are carriage rides or sleigh rides available nearby. Live by the ocean? Book two seats on a sunset cruise. A romantic ride in the moonlight is the perfect setting to give your Valentine a special gift.

Single Awareness Day: Valentine’s Day is for lovers, but you’re single, huh? Rally against cupid with other singles at events organized in your city in honor of “Single Awareness Day.” Better yet, go spend the money you would have spent on a Valentine on something special for yourself! Be your own Valentine! And give yourself a fabulous present…you deserve it! I once bought me a ring on this day when I was single. 

Con amor,
