Stay away from a boring date night this weekend and go on a spontaneous road trip with your partner by hopping in the car and driving with no plans in place.

Start off in your town, exploring neighborhoods you’ve never seen and finding restaurants, cafes or other niche spots for future dates together. Then, take it one step further: skip the highway and take a back road to somewhere random on the map, maybe a nearby town or a tourist attraction that you’ve been meaning to see. Don’t forget to bring a camera so the two of you will always remember the places that you visited.

Escape the cold winter months and bring the beach to you. Have your own island getaway by planning a romantic and private stay-cation.

The first step for this amazing date weekend is to crank up the heat in your house. Forget about how chilly it is outside by keeping your thermostat set to summer temperatures. You and your sweetheart can pretend you’re on the beach while lounging around in each other’s arms, blasting Bob Marley and dreaming of the sunshine. To really relax, dim the lights and lead each other in a soothing yoga and meditation session.

Embrace the winter weather this weekend with your honey while in the comfort and warmth of your home. Immerse yourselves in wintry-themed activities to get in the mood to cuddle and keep out of the cold.

Start off the night with a candlelit meal including all of your favorite winter foods: a roast chicken, snow peas, warm soup and hot cider or egg nog (spiked or not). You can even try your hand at making homemade hot cocoa with a romantic twist: use a fondue pot to melt your favorite chocolate bar and then pour into a mug of steamed milk or cream that the two of you can share. For an extra burst of flavor, add a peppermint stick or some cinnamon. Then, as you enjoy your drink, watch the falling snow outside and share your favorite childhood stories of snowball fights and ice skating. …On the edge of your seat? Click here for more!
