7 Ways to Celebrate with Romance
Do
you have a special occasion coming up? Whether
the two of you are marking a promotion,
graduation, or anniversary, you can turn your
celebration into a romantic event with just a
little planning. You may not have the time or
money to make a week-long vacation to mark the
occasion, but you can make your celebration a
special romantic day. Try these tips for your
next special occasion:
1.
Blindfold your lover and drive to a surprise
destination. Offer tantalizing clues along the
way but don't give out the secret until you
reach your destination--whether it's a local
B&B, a downtown hotel, or a special campground.
2.
Gift wrap a present for your lover. Sneakily
talk with the waiter before your food arrives
and ask him to slip the present in one of the
dishes--perhaps in the roll basket or a basket
of tortilla chips.
3.
Surprise your mate after a restaurant dinner
with a cake you've pre-ordered.
4.
Surprise your lover with a one-night vacation.
Rent a room at a local hotel (even a budget
motel) and decorate it with some five star
goodies: a bottle of champagne, some chilled
shrimp, fresh strawberries, cheese, French
bread, whatever you like. Pack an overnight bag
for each of you. Pick up your partner from work
for a special surprise "night out."
5.
Book the honeymoon suite in a local hotel.
6.
Turn your home bedroom into a romantic enclave
for the night. Buy satin sheets, fresh flowers,
tea candles, and a romantic CD to set the mood.
