Cheap Date Ideas

Let’s be honest for a second. You’re engaged and planning a wedding. Valentine’s Day is right around the corner and you are still trying to decide on the perfect gift. So, why not skip the typical and do something fun? Something you might have done when you first started dating.

This is the perfect opportunity to get those first-date jitters back and do something cute together before you take that trip down the aisle. The best part, you’ll save a few pennies while spending quality time together.

Bed & Breakfast

Celebrate Valentine’s Day with a little R&R. A one-night stay in the colder months won’t break the bank, so you can put that extra cash toward a room with a hot tub or breakfast in bed.

Ice Skating

It’s the perfect excuse to hold hands, “accidentally” fall on top of each other, and grab a cup of hot chocolate and cozy up to each other to keep warm.

Spa Night at Home

Settle in for a night of pampering! Run a bubble bath and treat each other to full-body messages. This is the perfect excuse to stay up all night and sleep in the next day!

Bowling

Rental shoes, beer, and trash-talking! Let your competitive sides come out with a fun night of bowling.

Cooking Classes

You’ll love every minute of this process! Learn to cook your favorite cuisine at your local community school, it’s a guaranteed date night every week!

Paint Your Own Pottery

Find the perfect soup bowl or flower vase and let your creative juices flow. Decorate your home with the pottery you painted together on this very memorable date night!

Indoor Picnic

If you’re tired of a quiet dinner at home disintegrating into chips and dip on the couch with no conversation between the two of you except for requests to change the channel, grab a blanket and some food and have an indoor picnic.

The best part of staying inside? No ants in your food — plus, you’re free to get busy right then and there! 🙂
