Thinking of Valentine’s Day ideas and how to plan this romantic weekend.
You may be thinking, shouldn’t my husband plan this romantic Valentine’s Day weekend for me?
Well, if your husband is like my husband, planning, arranging, and booking are not things he can handle. He is more like here is my card; pay for it, and I’ll be there.
That is alright, especially if you want to go away, do things, and have fun. Some men don’t know what to do but are ok with everything, will help pay for it and will enjoy it.
So now we can put these ideas together and plan this romantic Valentine’s Day getaway for you and your husband. Click here to download this free planner as you plan your weekend getaway.
Valentine’s Day ideas; book a hotel or vacation home for a romantic weekend.
There will be distractions if you’re trying to accomplish a romantic weekend at home without the kids around.
For one, everyone knows where you live; neighbors, friends, or a family member may come by.
Plus, you may find some work to do around the house when you should be relaxing or at a spa for a couples massage.
The best Valentine’s Day idea is to book a hotel or vacation home away from home so you are not bothered.
If you plan to drive or fly to a getaway, research the destination, prices on the hotel, things to do in that area, the best restaurants, and the weather.
Here’s an idea, you could visit Atlanta, Georgia; the weather is pleasant, many activities and places to stay, and the city has so much history and culture to see. I will share things to do for a weekend getaway for adults in Atlanta, Georgia soon.
Valentine’s Day ideas; decorate the room with romantic decor.
Once you get to the hotel or vacation home, if you choose to, you can decorate the room for a romantic atmosphere, starting with ambient lighting and soft music.
Bring some plastic rose petals from a dollar or arts and crafts store and decorate the bedroom with rose petals and heart-shaped balloons.
Plastic rose petals are easier to place around the tables, on the sink counter in the bathroom, around and on the bed, and easy to clean up.
Get some nice cozy plush pillows and blankets from Five Below or Target to place on the bed to give a luxury feel to the room.
Valentine’s Day ideas; wine, seltzer water, flowers, and chocolate, for a romantic weekend.
A Valentine’s Day idea is for you and your husband to have a drink, or sparkling water, which can help set the mood for the weekend.
You could bring a couple of plastic glasses to enjoy wine, champagne, or a drink of your choice and toast to the weekend.
Arrive for a local florist to deliver Valentine’s Day-themed fruit-shaped flowers with chocolates and a set of roses in an elegant vase to the room.
Using battery-powered candles is safer and under the recommended guidelines of the hotel’s policy.
You won’t need to worry about being sued for any damages that may happen when using fire-lighted candles in a hotel or vacation home.
Valentine’s Day ideas; to stay in one day to relax and order in for a romantic weekend.
Since you two are always on the go when you’re home, you might want a night to order in and watch a movie on the television.
Or stay in bed longer one morning and order breakfast in bed through DoorDash, Uber Eats, or the hotel’s kitchen (if the property has a kitchen).
If you want to bring plasticware to the Valentine’s Day decor, buy a small set of elegant plastic plates, forks, and napkins.
Valentine’s Day ideas; arrange for a date night for a perfect romantic weekend.
Depending on the weather in your city, you can take a romantic stroll through the botanical gardens or a nearby park or reserve a horse and carriage ride.
The weather fluctuates in Atlanta, Georgia. It could be a sunny afternoon, but there could be a cold chill at night, so bring a sweater.
You and your husband can research the best restaurant in town and view their menu for some Valentine’s Day menu, music, and decor for Valentine’s Day.
After eating, you can dance the night to music at a local dance club. Atlanta, Georgia, has a lounge called Slow Drag that plays 70’s soul, funk, jazz, and blues.
Dancing is not your and your husband’s thing; you could purchase tickets to see a live play at the closest theater, or if you’re in Atlanta, check out Fox Theater.
Valentine’s Day ideas; you can add some time to be pampered.
You can add something to your weekend that is perfect, relaxing, and rejuvenating.
Book a couples massage at a local spa or with the hotel and enjoy a therapeutic aromatherapy treatment.
Review the best spa or wellness center, the spa treatment options, and the prices of a local spa or wellness center.
The spa may have a couples massage special with a romantic Valentine’s decor in the spa room, setting the romantic vibes in the air.
If you can add it to your budget, then plan to experience a wellness day.
Valentine’s Day ideas; arrange a wine tasting or a tour.
If you love to view and sight-see, research who has the best guide tours for that city and arrange a time.
Attending a ride on a tour can be a great way to take in the scenery, learn about the city, cuddle up together, and take photos and videos for the digital album.
If you and your husband decide to stay in Atlanta, Georgia, rent a car, drive north Georgia, and check out the Chateau Elan in Braselton.
It’s about an hour’s drive from the city and has a beautiful vineyard where you can choose from more than any of their 30 different produced wine.
Depending on the day you are in Georgia, you could spoil each other at the Chateau Elan with a 5-course meal on Valentine’s Day. Month of Love – Saint Valentine’s Day – North Georgia Events | Chateau Elan
