I have chosen 7 last minute date ideas for you and your significant other to enjoy. Similarly if you are spending Valentine's Day alone or with some friends (there is no shame in this, we've all been there!) these can be some fun ideas for you also!
1. Take-away and Film Night.
This is our usual go-to date idea. I think for all of the valentine's days we have spent together we have stayed in and watched films. Normally we would order a Domino's and pig out for the night. However this year we are planning to trial the "fake-away" meals that we have seen in tesco. These are basically takeaway meals that you cook at home, we've been meaning to try these for ages and figured that Valentine's Day would be the perfect time to do so.
2. Video Games Date.
This is very similar to date idea one except it requires a little more participation. Instead of just sitting back and relaxing you could play some video games either together or against each other, it really depends on how competitive you are as a couple. Our favourite game to play together at the moment is the game 'Rocket League'. My boyfriend and I are quite competitive so I think we will avoid this idea to save any 'disagreements' on Valentine's Day.
3. Baking.
My boyfriend actually came up with this idea. This date idea has two perks. The first being that you get to spend some good quality time together and the second being that you end up with a yummy treat at the end of it, that is assuming that you're good at baking anyway. If you're confident I'm sure there are lots of really cute cake recipes on pinterest to follow, and if you're not so confident I'd pick up a mix from the supermarket and go wild with decorating instead!
4. Pamper evening.
I'm quite fond of having pamper evenings on my own but I enjoy them a lot more with other people. I'm a huge skincare fan so whenever I have the opportunity to go all out with my evening routine and use a face mask I am all over it, e wont own up to it but my boyfriend really enjoys using face masks also. Whether you're with someone or on your own for Valentine's Day I think this is a perfect idea.
5. Cinema date.
This could potentially be the most expensive date on the list because one you add snacks on top of cinema tickets the trip will become a little bit pricey. If you're like us you may prefer to go and buy your snacks from another shop and smuggle them in with you instead. There are lots of films on at the moment so I'm sure you will be able to find something that you'll both enjoy, I'm pretty sure the new 50 Shades of Grey film comes out this Valentine's Day too so if you're into that it's an option. I would suggest booking in for some films though in case it fills up.
6. Go for a walk.
This idea is very dependent on the weather being nice but something my boyfriend and I enjoy doing is going for walks. My boyfriend enjoys photography so we have frequent days out just taking photos. The best part about this kind of date is that it is absolutely free!
Museum dates are my favourite kind of dates and most of the time they are free entry, all they ask for is a small donation to keep the museum running. So if you're out and about this Valentine's Day and have a museum nearby definitely pop in. You can also take some pretty fun photos in museums and learning is always fun!
As ever I hope you enjoyed this post!
