Valentine’s Day is just a month away, so whatever you have planned for February 14th
in 2013, be sure to make it memorable and special. Perhaps you have
noticed by now the TV, Web, radio, and Fliers everywhere are packed with
Jewellery, Apparel (particularly in red), and Gadget advertisements
aimed at men and women to “make the day special for him/her”. Remember,
Valentine’s Day started as a commemoration of courtly love. In other
words, don't be troubled so much about finding an expensive or unique
gift, but care more about the person you are in love with. Spend some
time together, go rogue, and make love like anything.
Here, we wanted to share with you some special Valentine’s Day ideas that won’t cost you a fortune, but will for sure make your Valentine feel extra special.

- Plan a Fancy Dinner at Home: Did you forget to make hotel reservations in advance or wish to avoid crowded restaurant on 14th, Feb? No problem, get all the ingredients for a decedent candlelight dinner and make it at home together. Eating this home cooked meal on Valentine’s Day is not just a last minute idea or a budget saver but it will be fun as well.
- Sweets make the heart grow Fonder: Sure it does. But you don’t have to go all out and find the most expensive or largest box of sweets or chocolates. It can be as simple as a bar of his/her favourite chocolate, a specially made box of handpicked chocolates, or a personalised old style retro sweets jar with a message inside the jar. Check online stores such as Hazzahgifts.co.uk for more creative sweet ideas and how to get them delivered to your doorstep.
- How about a Movie night? Fire up the TV and set your mood with a movie marathon of romantic movies this Valentine. Order in your favourite food, splurge for pop-corns and coke, get blankets/cushions, and enjoy watching your favourite movies together.
- The most go-to-Valentine gift, Flowers: Who doesn’t love flowers? Flowers are no doubt romantic and will likely put a beam on your Valentine’s face. Pick up a beautiful bouquet of red roses for your sweetheart, tuck a short love note, and let flowers speak of your love in a language of their own.
- Go creative: If you are a creative writer, artist, or photographer make this Valentine memorable for your loved one with something they have never gotten before, a surprise gift. Capture the many facets of your love for your Valentine through an impressive piece of artwork, heartfelt letter, romantic poem, gorgeous picture collage in a photo frame, or a painting.
- Revive love: Your love for one other is the reason you are celebrating Valentine’s Day in the first place, so it is perhaps the best time to breathe a new life into your relationship! Plan an activity you both love, acknowledge little things that apparently go unnoticed and unappreciated, tell your sweetheart about the good they bring out in you, and take a moment to dream about the future together and life ahead.
