Date nights and boozy brunches are all very nice – but a whole day with your other half, doing something out of the ordinary is even better! While one part of our social media feed is brimming with declarations of love, the other is busy scrolling through and creating imaginary scenarios about the whirlwind romance that hasn’t yet arrived. We’re definitely among the latter, but if you’re among the few who have someone to spend the ‘love month’ with, then this is for you!
Deriving inspiration from our favourite celebrity couples and their lovestruck photos, we’ve rounded up some fun ideas for you and your partner that will take nothing more than a day – but give you a lot more to savour.
Road-Trip With Your Furry Best-Friends
Maybe the two of you met at a dog show where along with falling in love with the other person’s four-legged companion, you also fell in love with them! Or maybe, your mutual admiration for furry beings caused you to swipe right on each other on a dating app. Whatever it might be, take cues from Priyanka & Nick Jonas on how to make your pets a part of your day. Not only is it extremely adorable, but it’s also going to give you both a lot more to laugh about. We say, get them in the car, prep a picnic basket and drive to the outskirts of your city.
Let Nature Take The Wheel
Staying indoors is definitely tempting, especially on the weekend, but the outdoors have so much more to offer. We don’t mean booking a table at a fancy restaurant or attending a party, but ditching the jazz and going for something simpler – like a nature trail. Anushka & Virat, the couple of the hour, look elated on theirs too thanks to the greenery that surrounds them! Go deeper into the woods or hike up a hill, all while holding hands with your SO. It doesn’t get any more romantic than this.
Stay Close To Home With A Staycation
The best part about living in a big city? The luxurious hotels! Head to your favourite one in town with your partner, and make it grand. From unwinding at a couples’ spa to lazing around in the pool; at a 5-star hotel or resort, you will have tons to do. The idea came to us when we spotted this sunkissed photo of the hottest couple on the block – Farhan Akhtar and Shibani Dandekar. We’re going to bookmark this for later, but you should go ahead and book that stay.
Go Cycling With Your Ride Or Die
A little competition never hurt anybody, and trying to outdo your SO just for fun might be exactly what you both need. We say, indulge in an activity or sport that you’re both into, and keep score. Akshay Kumar & Twinkle Khanna seem to have found theirs – cycling! So, just like them, pedal away either on a premeditated route or let the road decide for you. You can start off bright and early in the morning, and have breakfast on the way. Get some rest at a park or the beach, and then ride to a cute cafe for lunch. The possibilities are endless!
Ditch The Candle-Light & Go On A Food Crawl
This one’s strictly for the foodies with insatiable appetites! What’s better than a restaurant crawl that not just allows you to try a plethora of dishes, but also gives you the chance to explore your city further? Saif and Kareena’s lunch spread looks absolutely delectable! With so much food to choose from, there’s no scope for an argument over who gets the last bite. Just pick a chain of restaurants that aren’t too far from each other, preferably within walking distance. Then, all you’ve got to do is dig in!
