It is easier to celebrate a romantic night at home than you think! Valentine’s Day is on everyone’s mind right now – and with the right snacks, beverages, and other goodies you can have a romantic night at home easily. Read on to see my tips and tricks to celebrate a romantic night at home with your favorite Valentine, no matter what day of the year it is!
Today’s post is full of everything you need for a fun and romantic night at home. I’m sharing the best snacks, sweets, scents, and sass – all you need to do is remind your sweetie that the two of you need some quality time together.
SWEET TREATS
It’s no secret that chocolate makes everything more awesome. Do you know what it does to fresh strawberries!?! The combination of chocolate and fresh strawberries is so decadent. The Be Mine Bouquet from Edible Arrangements is a wonderful way to show someone how much they mean to you. This is the perfect gift for Valentine’s Day, or any romantic occasion, so much better than a more traditional flower bouquet because you can eat it! An assortment of grapes, strawberries, heart shaped pineapples, and semi-sweet chocolate covered strawberries. There were even Belgium covered chocolate pops, yum!
TASTY BEVERAGES
Have you tried a Shandy? A shandy is a refreshing alcoholic beverage that is slightly bubbly. The Limited Edition Lucky Traveler Blackberry Shandy is a wheat ale that has been brewed with blackberries. That’s right – no mixing here! You’ll love the purple hue and fruity flavor!
You can use Lucky Traveler Blackberry Shandy to make a fun, refreshing Lucky Streak cocktail. Using a chilled cocktail shaker, muddle fresh blackberries then add mezcal, orange liqueur, lime juice, simple syrup and ice. Shake then strain into salt-rimmed, ice-filled double rocks glass.
SMART SNACKS
Anyone who knows me will tell you that I could happily eat my weight in popcorn every day. Popcorn Indiana pops up a variety of delicious flavored popcorn that is sure to please everyone’s tastes. Date nights at home, I don’t even mind sharing the popcorn.
The sweet and saltiness of their Kettle Corn satisfies all of your cravings at once! Looking for something a bit sweeter? Reach for a bag of Black & White Drizzlecorn. Popcorn Indiana is Non-GMO Project Verified, certified gluten free, and contains NO high fructose corn syrup.
MOOD LIGHTING
Candles set the mood easily by providing just the right ambiance you’re looking for during an at home romantic date night. When they smell good, too, that’s an added bonus!
When looking for candles, I look for the Chesapeake Bay Candle company. Enriched with natural essential oils and made with soy blend wax that delivers a clean burn, the Love & Passion scent is a candle you will want to burn any day of the week! The tropic scent transports you to a beautiful island far away!
SOMETHING SASSY
A romantic night at home calls for something that will make you feel sexy and confident. The luxe lace and plunging neckline of the Maidenform bra is as comfortable as it is stylish. You’ll love the sassy coordinating boyshort, too. The simple design of the boyshort provides a no-line look under clothing.
Creating a romantic night at home looks different for every couple. I am happy watching a movie, playing a board game, or just talking with my husband. Romance does not have to be expensive. A romantic night can be created in your own home with a little bit of effort.
I talk a lot about how self care is important, however it’s equally as important to cultivate the relationship with your partner. I would love to hear how you cultivate your relationship with your partner. Leave me a comment below.
