Valentine’s Day at Allen’s Flower Market

Valentine’s Day at Allen’s Flower Market

Description:

At Allen’s Flower Market, Valentine’s Day is Our Favorite Day of the Year!

Valentine’s day is a special time at Allen’s Flower Market. This winter celebration of love, romance, and devotions has a rich history and is named for the iconic St. Valentine, whose feast day commemorates the legend that he performed secret weddings for Roman soldiers who were otherwise forbidden to marry. We love Valentine’s Day because it is a celebration of love at any age. Whether you’re dating, in a committed partnership, or married, there is no better time to honor the one your love. Here are some clever date ideas to make this Valentine’s Day an event to remember.

  • Get moving. Whether you’re having a mild winter or live somewhere snowy and cold, getting outdoors together is a magical way to reignite your conversations and keep you free from the distractions of your home or your screens. Whether you decide to set up a picnic in the park, take a walk along the beach, or embark on a wintry hike, the time you spend outside will boost your energy and mood and will be a memorable break from everyday life.
  • Surprise each other. Few things are more romantic than a bit of mystery. Give each other the gift of a small surprise – either in the form of an outing, a gift, or a plan for the future. Your romantic partner will feel cared for and delighted. 
  • Take a trip. How long has it been since you took a fun road trip or out-of-town excursion with your beloved? Chances are, you’d travel at the drop of a hat for someone else’s wedding or romantic milestone. Why not treat this Valentine’s Day as the nudge you need to go big and enjoy a romantic escape?
  • Cook something delicious together. What makes February 14 so unique is how it encourages small forms of intimacy. It’s the little things that make a difference. Instead of reaching for your go-to dinner, take the time to plan out an adventurous new culinary project. Put on your aprons, pop open a bottle of wine and enjoy the process.
  • Plan to have no plan. If the idea of organizing a date is stressing you out, try a new approach – go out on the town with your partner with no plan at all! Let yourselves enjoy the spontaneity of the day without worrying about being on time. Try a new bar, wander through unexplored neighborhoods, or visit a gift shop together. Just be aware that go-to date spots will likely be booked up with reservations.
  • Make each other a playlist. Are you feeling nostalgic about the days of giving mixed tapes to your crush? Take the time to curate a special playlist and trust that your partner will keep on listening well beyond February 14. Bonus points if you can include songs that evoke romantic memories that you two share! Plus, having a playlist handy means you’ll have something ready to go when it’s time to put on Valentine’s Day mood music.
  • Make arts and crafts together. Has it been a while since your last watercolor? Whether or not you’re a talented artist, everyone is creative! Give yourselves a reason to unleash your creative potential with some paints, colored pencils, markers, or clay and go to town. 
  • Have a single’s party. We get it – Valentine’s Day can be a bummer for those who are unattached. Rather than sitting at home scrolling through your feed and seeing all of the romantic fun your coupled friends are having, single people can throw a dance party, bonfire, or game night.
