5 Perfectly Romantic Gifts for Valentines Day
Are we totally over flowers and chocolate?
We might be... How to make the right gesture without being boring or too cheesy (romance= oui, cheese= non, even if we are French)
Here's a few ideas from our team (to their other half; this is as big of a hint you will get).
A staycation in a hotel.
A night away but not too far just for yourself? Yes, please. Time for yourself feels insanely luxurious especially if you spend most of your week juggling career, children and making dinners and friends... You can enjoy relax and quiet time together (20 minutes) away from home.
With a staycation, there is no complicated organisation, no packing and no guilt over an expensive trip. And you can visit all your favourite places.
A floating experience.
According to FloatWorks, Floating heals your body and rebalances your mind.
Floatation therapy is the practice of lying back in one of FloatWorks world-leading floatation tanks and experiencing a blissful, healing state.
Floating heals the body and mind, and provides the perfect antidote to a busy, city lifestyle.
Getting your body healed and your mind rebalanced together might very well be the most romantic thing ever, non?
A tailored massage.
Experiences are better than things they say. In the case of massages, it is very true indeed. Regardless if you choose a deep tissue massage or Reflexology, you will always come out feeling better. And feeling good is the point. This can be a gift of self love and self care as well. The perfect excuse to show how much you love yourself this Valentine's Day.
An immersive dining experience.
Instead of sitting down in an ultra romantic restaurant filled with tables for two only, why not try something a little (or a lot) different? If you fancy an unconventional, unforgettable dining adventure, then immersive dining is for you.
Immersive dining is a when you enjoy your dining in a theatrical surrounding. Every event or location will follow a theme, and the setting's decor, and actors or performers will make the experience come to life.
From The Medieval Banquet to Cabaret via or even a Hidden Woodland Foraged Feast, there are plenty of unique dining experiences.
A romantic dinner.
That you cook together. You can even take a class prior to the big evening and enjoy the results together. This is also major bonding time with your partner. Très romantique.
You can’t underestimate the power of cooking a meal together with your partner to actually help strengthen your relationship over all. Good food means happiness in the relationship.
