Valentine’s Day falls on Thursday, February 14, 2019. Key weekends for getaways will be February 8-9 for couples who celebrate early and February 15-16 for couples who celebrate closer to the actual date. For those of you who get President’s Day off on Monday February 18, a Sunday night stay is another option. Most people have work schedules that interfere with celebrating the holiday as an overnight getaway that contains a Thursday. Plan accordingly to make romance coincide with the holiday. Roses and chocolates are traditional gifts, fancy restaurants will be packed, B&B rooms with 2 person Jacuzzi tubs will be in short supply.
Here is a list of desirable gifts for your lover on Valentine’s Day:
- Flowers – Red Roses are best
- Chocolates – Truffles are delicious
- Dinner – Fine dining with steak or seafood
- Movie – 1st run in theater or Netflix in private
- Jewelry – Heart-shaped or marriage proposal
- Poetry – Self-written rhymes are appreciated
- Massage – relax and remove stress
- Attention – Spend time in private
- Jacuzzi – Go Tubbin’
- Getaway – Bed and Breakfast
Many fancy restaurants will be open. Some take reservations, some don’t. That means that a romantic dinner will be celebrated before or after Valentine’s Day this year. Spreading the celebration day over a couple of weeks means that the lines may not be as long, the restaurants will not be as crowded, and a perfect night out might be easier to obtain. Surprise your lover a day or week early or make the promise for a romantic getaway on the day to celebrate a few days or weeks later.

Then arrive to your pre-arranged agenda for a getaway filled with romance.
