Netflix and Cuddle

A romantic take on Netflix and chill, this date is ideal for the couple that just wants a low-key, stay-at-home night together. Stick to an easy menu such as pizza or takeout from the favorite neighborhood spot. Hopefully, one of you picked up a bottle of wine on the way home. For the feature presentation, choose a sure-fire classic or that Oscar-nominated film you both want to see. Other essentials include a cozy blanket, candles, and of course dessert – chocolate, cupcakes, brownies, or macaroons are all superb yet unfussy choices. Lastly, turn off your phones and just focus on being completely present in each other’s company.

We hope these love-fueled ideas inspire you to try something new and fun this year. And remember what really matters most this Valentine’s Day is spending some quality time together as a couple.
