February is here and I know it’s my year to come up with the perfect Valentine’s Day date night ideas. See my sweetie and I trade every year, one year he plans the Valentine’s Day date and the next year I do the planning. Last year we headed out to a cozy Italian restaurant to exchange gifts. (Alright, it was Olive Garden. Let’s get real, unlimited soup and breadsticks plus a cozy booth!) This year I wanted to do something different. Here are the ideas I thought of for a memorable Valentine’s Day date night this year!
5 Valentine’s Day Dates Night Ideas
Movie Night At Home

You don’t have to go out on the town to have a special Valentine’s Day. Why not spend a quiet night at home cuddled on the couch with your Valentine, watching some great movies. There are plenty of fun romantic movies out there including classics like The Princess Bride, Romeo and Juliet or 16 Candles. Newer movies I might check out include Valentine’s Day, Paper Towns if you can stand the tears or Pitch Perfect for a laugh!
Go Ice Skating
What better way to spend a chilly February night than ice skating with your date. If you are anything like me, you may find yourself wobbling more than skating, but that’s ok! Whoever is better at ice skating helps the other. Before you know it, you’ll be holding hands and gliding gracefully together, aww! Afterwards, hit up a nearby café or coffee shop to warm up with a mug of hot chocolate for a picture perfect date.
Go To A Concert
This is one of my fav ideas, check out your fav band live with Bae as a special Valentine’s Day date night treat. If you two share the same love of music, a concert is a great idea to unwind and have fun. If you can’t afford a concert that features a big name artist or group, many smaller arenas feature local musical groups. Check out a new band you haven’t seen before, or follow one of your local favs.
Eat Dinner In Style
Most major cities these days have some sort of fun themed restaurant. Take advantage of the fun for a memorable date! Some ideas include checking out places like the Rainforest Café, Medieval Times, Dave & Buster’s and Hard Rock Café.
Make It A Game Night At Home
Valentine’s Day is the ideal night to spend at home playing a fun board game with your Valentine, and even a group of your friends. Some board games ideas include Balderdash, Reverse Charades, Cranium, Loaded Questions and Apples to Apples.
I like planning things at home. Tho the Medieval night would be so much fun.
That’s awesome! I always like spending it at home, with movies and some food.
Many wonderful ideas that you can apply for any occasion not only Valentines.
Movie night at home is right up my husband’s alley. We really don’t like doing the usual stuff couples do on Valentines Day. 🙂
I think all these are some fun date night ideas anytime & Valentine’s day makes it more special than the other days. We always prefer movie night at home & game night is a fun idea as well.
Those are all great date ideas. We don’t go out on Valentine’s Day, but these are great for any other time, too.
We are probably going to do a movie night at home. It’s always a fun date and we can avoid the crowds.
A movie night at home is a great idea. Sometimes, when you have kids, it is hard to get out to go on a date on the town.
Valentines day is coming right up, and I have nothing planned. It may be a night at home for us.
I like the ice skating idea! I wouldn’t mind going out or staying in for a movie either if there’s something we both want to see.
We haven’t had a date night is so long. These are good ideas so we have some kind of date.
Love these ideas. Would love to do a game night. Haven’t done that in a very long time and it would be fun. Ice skating would be a blast too.
We are having a movie night at home this year. I am going to have a spa day then a nice dinner and the kids will join me for movies. These are great Valentines day ideas.
We are doing a family dinner and movie night for Valentines and I actually can’t wait. I love spending it with my kiddos too!
