You’ve been around proposal block. But calling each other “fiance” is a new stage in your relationship. What does it mean for holidays like Valentine’s Day when you’re engaged? Expert pop-up wedding planners from Pop the Knot say it’s the perfect opportunity to try something new and mix things up. And they’ve compiled some of their best ideas for you down below.
Start a New Tradition
New engagement equals new traditions! Head to a candlelight picnic instead of a restaurant, surprise them with a weekend getaway, or sweep them off their feet by covering the bedroom with rose petals.
Cook a Romantic Dinner at Home
The go-to Valentine’s night is a classy dinner at a fancy restaurant. But you’ve probably already done that. Instead, why not do the opposite with a cozy dinner at home. Cook it together to make it extra intimate.
Go to a Concert
You don’t hear of a concert date night on Valentine’s Day very often, but it’s actually a great way for engaged couples to get out of their wedding planning mindset and into the moment.
Celebrate Like the Day You Got Engaged
If you and your fiance have been stressing like crazy over wedding plans, ideas, and commitments, it’s time to re-spark the excitement. Celebrate Valentine’s Day as if it’s right after the proposal when you both have never felt more in love. Valentine’s Day when you’re engaged should be super special!
