Linen Romance

One of the most traditional and classic ways of starting off a special Valentine's Day starts before we even put our feet to the ground. Serving the love of your life breakfast in bed is not only romantic, but it will put her in the right mood for the remainder of the day.

Even if you both have busy schedules and full work days, you can treat her to a special breakfast a bit earlier before you usually awaken. Set your alarm clock and rise up, you are going to make her an incredible breakfast in bed!

You could also switch it up to dinner in bed, which can be even more romantic as you're both winding down from the day, the lights are low and soft music is playing in the background.

Choose some comfortable (but sexy!) sleep wear, crawl into bed and share a romantic meal. Make sure that you set up the right atmosphere with clean sheets, scented candles, light music and turn off the T.V or phones. You want a quiet and intimate dinner between the two of you.

What you eat isn't important, and you can adjust the menu based on your partner’s personal preferences. Make sure it's her (or his!) favorite meal, and make it last! Start off with finger food appetizers like fruits including strawberries, mangoes or raspberries. You can add biscuits, French bread or home made rolls (if you're up to the task!) into the mix, accompanied with cheeses and perhaps dip.

You could twist things up by creating a romantic picnic lunch by spreading a blanket on your rec room floor (or rent out a hotel room for the night so that you're able to give your partner a change of scenery).

Load a picnic basket up with your favorite goodies and make sure to set up a chilled bottle of wine or champagne. If you aren't sure what to purchase, consider a fruit medley wine such as strawberry wine.

Consider packing in a dessert, either whipped cream and strawberries, cupcakes with sprinkles, Valentine's cookies, anything that really celebrates the mood and represents your special day.

After your dinner, offer your partner a massage with oils to complete this romantic excursion.
