Scheduling a date night with your spouse or significant other is essential to keeping the romance alive and finding time to connect with one another. Over time, it can be easy for the dates to become routine if there’s a lack of thought or creativity put into the evening. If you want to make your date night unique and memorable, here are a few ideas to shake up your typical date night.

Visit the Place Where You Met

Taking a trip down memory lane will prove to be sentimental when you visit the place where you met or had your first date. You can wear the same or similar outfits to have more of an appreciation for your story and past. Reflect on your history together and discuss everything that you’ve been through and the changes you’ve gone through over the months or years.

Get Pampered

 

Getting spoiled and pampered together will allow you to bond as a couple and create a new memory. Consider scheduling a couples massage at a local spa where you can relax and unwind in a tranquil setting. You can also get facials or sit in the sauna together, helping you recharge and let go of your stress. Feeling more at ease while spending time together creates a bond and keeps you present in the moment with your significant other.

 

If you prefer to stay home, consider sharing a bubble bath and snacking on chocolate-covered strawberries as you wash each other from head to toe. Light candles around the tub to set a romantic mood.

Take Dance Classes

It takes two to tango. You can get your adrenaline going with dance classes and learn how to work together to your favorite tunes. You’ll learn how to improve your skills and can spend more time practicing together throughout the week for a fun way of getting more time with one another.

Take a Dinner Cruise

If you’ve tried every date on land, take a dinner cruise together where you can enjoy the views and feel of the ocean. Dinner cruises often involve five-star cuisine with dancing available (practice your new skills!), and you get the bonus of socializing with other couples on a luxurious yacht.

Go Ice Skating

Make it easy to feel young again by going ice skating together. During the winter season, find a local rink that is held outdoors where you can see the skyscrapers overhead or take in the beautiful views of the trees. Spending time outside where you can hold hands and feel the wind in your hair will add romance to your night as you glide on the ice together.

Change up your date night and try some new ideas to make your evening special. With extra thought put into the date, you’ll impress your spouse or significant other and grow more in love. A special night at Essence Suites will show your partner that you’ve been thinking about them and is sure to impress.
