Hey, lovebirds! Valentine’s Day is here, and we know wedding planning is taking over your life right now. Between venue visits, cake tastings, and trying to agree on a guest list (why does your mom insist on inviting her book club?!), things can get a little overwhelming.
So, this V-Day, why not ditch the pressure of fancy reservations and celebrate love from the comfort of your own home?
Here’s how to have the chillest, most romantic stay-in night while still feeling like a total main character couple.
Booze, snacks and vibes!
First things first—what’s a cozy night without some good eats? Put together a charcuterie board (cheese, crackers, chocolate, and all the yumminess) or order your favourite takeout. Pair it with some wine, bubbly, or fun cocktails, light some candles, and boom—instant romance.
Bonus points if you feed each other chocolate-covered strawberries. Just saying.
Movie marathon
What’s more iconic than a Valentine’s movie night? Curl up under a fluffy blanket and put on a wedding-themed rom-com (My Big Fat Greek Wedding, Crazy Rich Asians, The Proposal—you get the vibe). Or just put on a fav movie. Doesn’t have to be romantic. Whatever is your vibe, just take a break and relax cuddled up on the sofa.
Memory Lane Moment
Take a break from the wedding planning stress and go back to where it all started. Scroll through old photos, read your first-ever texts to each other, or write love letters to open on your wedding day.
Trust me, this one will have you both feeling all kinds of soft. (and yes I am cheesy).
Wedding Inspo Sesh
Okay, okay—we said no planning tonight, but hear me out! If you’re feeling inspired, grab your laptop and scroll through mood boards (like this dreamy pink & red non-traditional wedding vibe you love!).
Play around with colour schemes, get excited, but keep it stress-free. This is about dreaming together, not finalizing budgets.
Just Be in the Moment
At the end of the day, this whole wedding thing? It’s all about you two. So, whether you spend the night laughing, dancing in your living room, or just cuddling in PJs, soak up the love. Your wedding will be amazing, but this journey together? That’s the real magic.
