It’s no secret that Valentine’s Day can be a stressful holiday from planning a night for your significant other, finding a dinner reservation to finding the perfect gift. However, as stressful as it can seem, this doesn’t mean you should write off the holiday altogether. Here are a few stay at home ideas for Valentine’s Day which will prove to be less stressful and more romantic.

1. Order in Dinner - Give yourselves the night off and order in dinner from your favorite restaurant. As a bonus, you’ll be supporting a local business!

2. Cook Dinner Together - Have some fun in the kitchen by cooking your favorite meal together. Another idea would be to take an at home cooking class if you need some direction instead. If you like to bake, whip up a batch of cookies or brownies to enjoy.

3. Movie Night - Instead of fighting the crowds at the movies why not do a movie night at home? Now a days you can rent brand new movies right at home or find a binge worthy movie on Netflix! Make a bowl of popcorn, grab your favorite beverage and snuggle up on the couch.

4. Game Night - For competitive couples, have a game night! Pull out your favorite board game such as Settlers of Catan, Monopoly, Twister., etc.. you get the idea!

5. Have a picnic - Who doesn’t love a picnic? Grab a blanket and re-create a picnic at home in your living room! A few things to include is a bottle of wine and a charcuterie board.

6. Create an at home spa - Light a few candles, get massage oils and face masks. Your significant other will really love this one! As an added bonus surprise your significant other with a foot spa or a deep tissue massager.

7. Learn Something New Together - Let loose and learn something new together! This could be something as simple as painting or learning a new dance!

8. Plan a Future Vacation - Who doesn’t love having something to look forward too? Planning a vacation is fun and gets you excited for the future. It can even be as simple as a staycation.
