No matter how long you have been together, it is important to keep the romance alive in your relationship. The best part is that there are many ways to do this! Whether you feel like staying in or have grown tired of the same old Friday night dinner and wish to switch things up, an at-home date can invigorate both you and your partner. Keep reading to pick up some tips on planning a romantic date night at home.
Game Night
A game night is a great choice when planning a romantic date night at home, as it can liven your spirits and bring healthy competition. You can set up a few stations with games in your home and make a game night boot camp where you switch to a new station after a certain amount of time. Even if you are still in the middle of a game, set it down and run to the next one when time is up. When the next round comes, you can get back to it! Many couples love this option, as it gets their heart pumping, their brains working, and begs the question: Who can win the most rounds while on the clock?
Spa Night
If you and your significant other are in need of some serious relaxation, planning a spa night in the comfort of your home is a great idea. You can do so much to elevate your spa night and rival that of an actual spa—all you really need is a tub and some supplies that you have lying around the house. Gather some cozy towels, a bath bomb, tea lights, and essential oils to make a calming bubble bath you both will enjoy. If you wish to go the extra mile, pick up a sweet treat, drinks, facial masks, and roses.
Movie Night
While you and your significant other may spend most nights unwinding on the couch, especially when on a binge-watching spree, there are ways to enhance this activity to a proper date night experience. Before showing time, you can set up a sundae or popcorn bar with a plethora of different toppings; this might be especially enjoyable if your significant other has a taste for salty and sweet foods. You can also make the evening even more fun by creating a pillow and blanket fort speckled with colored lights. Adding fun aspects to an otherwise dull movie night makes for a date night to remember.
