Romantic ideas on a budget

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Meeting someone new is always an incredible feeling. Learning everything about them, understanding what makes them smile and laugh, and at the end of the day, wanting to show them how much you care about them. While some shower the people they love with flowers, romantic dinners or trips of a lifetime, that’s not always the most realistic route for all of us.

Despite popular belief, romantic gestures don’t have to rip a hole in your pocket and spending a large sum of money is not the only way to show someone you care. There are plenty of ways you can sweep your partner off their feet and truly enjoy your time together.

Candle Lit Dinner

A significant aspect of going out to fancy dinners is to enjoy the amazing food, but it’s also to be encapsulated by the ambience of the restaurant. The great thing about this is that dim lights, candles, flowers and soft music can all be easily brought and executed inside the comfort of your home. Create your romantic dinner date in your living room and jump online to find some great and simple dinner recipes to blow your partners socks off.

Buy an Adult Toy

Adult toys can be a lot cheaper than going on a romantic trip to Paris. However, it will surely take you to destinations you have not been before. When buying a sex toy, look for quality products like the ones they sell on noti. You are investing in personal pleasure for you and your partner that you can indulge in anywhere anytime.

Picnic

Picnics are an amazing way to make your partner feel extra special. Especially when you can both lie on a blanket and cuddle each other while eating delicious food. There isn’t a much better combination than that. Look for chips, dips, cheeses or meats and a beautiful view for you both to look over (if you can find something more beautiful than them). Sangria and chocolate-covered strawberries are a great addition and to top it all off, keep it a surprise!

Make Something

Gifts are a wonderful thing to give to someone to show how much you care for them, but gifts can get quite expensive. We often believe that material things like clothing, jewelry or watches will show your feelings, but making something for them can really show how much effort you are willing to put in to make them smile. You can bake something, make some art, make a puzzle or put a photo album together. Get creative!

At-Home Spa

We all get exhausted and from time to time we just want to relax. If you know your loved one is feeling this way, you can create an at-home spa for them. Draw them a bath, light some candles, give them a massage, prepare them dinner in bed and watch a movie until you both fall asleep. They’ll be so relaxed they won’t know what hit them.

Visit a Museum

Museums are a great way to learn something new and also enjoy some time out of the house together. Most museums have days where you can enter for free, so make sure to look up your local museum and enjoy a free day of education and beauty. You can even have some drinks beforehand to make it interesting.

Go Explore

Sometimes exploring new places is the best way to create amazing memories with each other. You can drive to a new town or city, go for a hiking adventure or even act like tourists in your home town. With this, you can experience new people and places, as well as learn more about each other. A win-win situation.

Karaoke Nights

If a bit of a party is what you are looking for, go out and find yourself a karaoke night. You can either watch amazing singers enjoy the spotlight or get some laughs out of watching someone do their best to hit the high notes of I’ll always love you by Whitney Houston. Either way, it’s an awesome experience and will ensure some great laughs. Make sure to have pre-drinks at home!

A romantic gesture doesn’t have to be an expensive one. Use some of the ideas above to create an amazing experience for you and your loved one!
