A sweet, romantic, and cozy at-home-date sounds pretty great these days. But how can you make Valentine’s Day special from your living room or kitchen? If you’re looking to spread the love, enjoy some “me time,” and take your sweetheart on one of the most memorable dates of their lives, we’re here to help. Your friends at Allan’s Flowers, Prescott’s top florist, are sharing our guide for the perfect at-home Valentine’s Day.
Seven Unique Valentine’s Day Activities
Write Love Notes
Writing love letters is a romantic Valentine’s Day tradition that never goes out of style. Keep the classic tradition alive while you celebrate from home this year. Prepare a letter to your Valentine in advance, or get creative together and host a mini craft date. Let your creativity fly as you write sweet notes inside handmade Valentine cards.
Pair Wine and Chocolates
Bring home a few bottles of your favorite wines and some boxes of assorted chocolate for you and your sweetheart to share. Do you fancy yourself a wine connoisseur? You’ll have a leg up on your partner by knowing which wine and chocolate pair best. If not, then you’ll enjoy a day of experiments, trying out various combinations together during your very own at-home chocolate and wine tasting.
Build a Puzzle Together
What could be better than working next to your love on a fun project? Make your Valentine’s Day relaxing with a jigsaw puzzle. Spread the pieces out on the floor, start your fireplace or light some fragrant candles, turn up the romantic tunes, and piece together something special.
Send Beautiful Flowers
Spread the love this Valentine’s Day with charming floral bouquets, like our “Perfectly Pink” arrangement. Other than arranging a special delivery for your sweetheart, send uplifting blooms to friends, family, neighbors, or anyone else who could use a nice pick-me-up. Don’t forget to show yourself some appreciation, too. Pick out your favorite flowers and write yourself an inspiring note for some self-love.
Practice Self-Love Yoga
You can’t have a day of self-love without mental clarity, physical activity, or total focus on your needs. Hit all three of these with a virtual yoga class. Find a class online that you can join and start your day of self-care and love by feeling zen.
Cook a Romantic Meal
Grab your apron and turn on the oven because it’s time for the ultimate at-home cooking date. Find the recipes for your favorite gourmet entree and heavenly dessert. Spend the afternoon with your sweetheart, side-by-side in the kitchen while you prepare the perfect Valentine’s Day dinner. But don’t take this job too seriously. Part of the fun is in the prep work.
Watch Your Favorite Movies
A great way to spend Valentine’s Day at home is by enjoying a favorite movie marathon. Take turns choosing various movies to watch together as you wrap yourselves up in each other’s arms. Share your most-loved movies with your partner and you might learn something you didn’t know before.
Have you made your grand plan for Valentine’s Day yet? Whether you’re sweeping your love off their feet with a romantic evening, spending the afternoon solo, or sharing love and kindness with your community, we know this year will be perfect. We can’t wait to help you put the cherry on top with beautiful floral from Allan’s Flowers.
