With Valentine’s Day getting closer each day, it’s time to get to work! The beginning of a new decade demands a bold gesture that shows your significant other that you really care.
While last-minute Hallmark cards and store-bought chocolates may have worked wonders in the past, it’s time for you to step up your game!
Read on for five sweet and thoughtful ways you can make a lasting impression this year by taking things to the next level:
1. Their Favorite Breakfast in Bed
No, we’re not suggesting you wake your beau up at 6 AM in the morning with a bowl of cereal and a Snickers bar.
Add a special touch of love and thought to the conventional definition of breakfast in bed by going the extra mile and preparing their favorite breakfast.
Whether that’s pancakes and strawberries or a rich omelet and toast, find the best recipe online and take the time to perfect it.
Once you’re sure it tastes as good as it sounds, roll into bed around 10 AM (let them sleep in!) and surprise them with a tray of a hearty breakfast that’s sprinkled with rose petals.
Include coffee and cut thin slices of fruit to spread across the tray for aesthetic effect. We also recommend including a few small presents like some books on their wish list or a sweet necklace!
Pro tip: Take the gesture to another level by writing ten things you love about them on post-it notes and handing each out as your beau dives into their heavenly (we hope!) breakfast.
2. A Thoughtful Present
Presents are a great way of showing someone you care about them, but only if they carry thought and meaning behind them.
Instead of asking your assistant to pick up a Tiffany bracelet on their way home, take charge of things by putting together a personalized present. The more you have to rack your brain to come up with a good idea, the better!
Delve deep into past experiences, inside jokes, and memorable moments for a wholesome present that’s brimming with thought, meaning, and affection.
Whether you put together a scrapbook of your favorite memories together or collect corkscrews of all the wines you shared with a small phrase from the day engraved on each, it’s bound to be a hit as long as it’s meaningful.
3. Do Something They Love Together!
One of the best ways of going the extra mile on Valentine’s Day is doing something your significant other loves doing with you. Whether they’ve been eating your ear off about wanting to go on an adventurous hike or haven’t stopped obsessing over an upcoming sporting event, surprise them by not only giving them the chance to experience it, but accompany them for the ride!
Get a pair of matching shirts to add a touch of sweetness to the surprise and head off for a hike or that dreaded football game that you’ll ultimately end up loving because of how happy it makes them!
4. A Dreamy Candlelit Dinner
You can’t go wrong with a classic candlelit dinner. As always, take your time making arrangements to ensure it’s the perfect place and time!
While taking your beau out to a fancy restaurant is a great idea, taking charge of things by planning a sweet and intimate dinner at home will add the perfect touch of romance that cannot be replicated otherwise.
Set the table, light some sweet candles, and prepare a delectable feast for two! We recommend starting off with appetizers and ending with a mouthwatering dessert to truly wow your significant other. They’ll feel extra special knowing you prepared everything yourself!
5. Go Big: Charter a Luxury Yacht!
When we said go big, we meant go big! Pull out all the stops by heading off to vacationland (Cabo, of course!) and chartering a luxury yacht, replete with amenities and comfort.
Soak in the beauty of Mexico by feasting upon its beautiful blue skies, breezy warmth, glittery oceans, and endless festivities! With an on-board chef and premium bar, you can ensure you’ll experience Mexican waters with all luxuries intact.
Pro tip: Take a beautiful stroll with your loved one along the Mexican beach for an added touch of romance! Take in the stunning landscape as you walk along hand-in-hand and spend precious moments together.
