On February 14, it's Valentine's Day. Need some inspiration to surprise your loved one? Are you still looking for the ultimate interpretation for the day of love? Discover everything you need for Valentine's Day now. 5 Tips for the perfect day with your lover.
Every year in the Netherlands Valentine's Day is celebrated on 14 February. The day is also called the day of love. On that day, lovers spoil each other with gifts such as flowers, chocolate and beautiful lingerie. Since the 1990s, it has mainly been a commercial day where all major companies such as Hünkemöller, Hema, Bijenkorf, Kruidvat, Action and many more earn a lot of money.
And that's a shame, because love shouldn't be commercial. Valentine's Day should be a day to show your partner that you care. And that does not necessarily have to be with an (expensive) gift. True love cannot be expressed in money or gifts.
Do you really want to surprise your lover this year? Don't arrive with the standard presents? Then the following 5 tips for the perfect day with your lover are for you.
Your partner means everything to you and you want to show that. Then you can't come up with a standard gift for a man or a nice smell of which she may already have one. As nice as it is, a little creativity shows that you have really thought about the gift and that you really care about the other person.
Do you want to surprise your partner with more than a fun day? Then give a weekend away as a gift. You can then use the weekend to surprise your partner on several occasions. You can choose from romantic classics or out of the box ideas for a weekend away for Valentine's Day.
Of course presents are part of it on February 14th. Expensive gifts are not necessary at all. It's the little things that show that you care and think about the other person that makes a much more impact than an expensive gift from the store. Your partner will surely be endeared by your attentiveness and declarations of love.
Every love story is unique and special, including yours and your partner's. You can capture this love forever in different ways. Below you will find some inspiration for this.
Buy a nice notebook or diary and tell your partner how you got to know each other. What you appreciate about the other. Make the book even more fun by writing anecdotes in it, pasting photos and, for example, printing beautiful quotes that you paste in. That way it becomes your own love story in pictures and in writing.
Do you have a song that means a lot to both of you? Nice! Then you can get started and personalize the song. This is perfectly possible if you play an instrument yourself. Are you not that musical? No worries. Take the instrumental version of the song and write appropriate lyrics to it. You can then transfer this while the song is playing in the background.
Why limit yourself to Valentine's Day? Why not prove all year round that you think about and love the other person? With a little creativity you can surprise your partner all year round.
