Scrabble spelling out Happy Valentines Day

This Valentine’s Day may be looking a little different than last year. Lots of popular date ideas such as going out to dinner, seeing a movie, or going dancing may not be possible with social distancing guidelines. Luckily, we’ve got a few simple but romantic ideas to make your Valentine’s Day special this year. Here are some of our favorites!

Best Valentine's Day Ideas for 2021

Cook Together

Instead of going out to dinner, find a few fancy recipes online and get to work! Break open a bottle of wine and play your favorite music in the background to help set the mood. 

Write Love Letters

Some say that letter writing is a lost art, but there’s no denying how special it feels to get a handwritten letter or card. Why not write a letter to your significant other this year? If you’re not sure what to write, start with something simple like your first impression of them or your 10 favorite things about their personality. 

Cuddle Up By the Fire

Is there really anything better than sitting by the fire with someone you love? You can pull cushions off the sofa, bring a blanket to huddle under, drink a little wine, or even roast some marshmallows! No fireplace or fire pit? Not a problem. There’s plenty of YouTube videos of fireplaces with soft music in the background, like this one with jazz music

Recreate Your First Date

Did you go for coffee on your first date? Or go for a walk around the city? Recreate the food, drinks, and activities of your first date! Valentine’s Day is the perfect opportunity to embrace your sentimental side and take a walk down memory lane. 

Take an Online Class

Okay, so taking a class doesn’t sound super romantic, but hear us out! Try an online drawing class, watch and paint along with an old Bob Ross video, put on some music and watch a dance tutorial, or even just turn down the lights and dance on your own to your favorite songs!
