10 Unique Date Nights
By Catherine Hamilton
Whether you’re in a long-term relationship – and you’re trying to inject a little novelty into your relationship – or you prefer to do something different when getting to know someone new, going on a unique date with your partner can help you to create unforgettable memories. With this in mind, here are the 10 best unique date ideas for couples.
1. Head to an escape room
If you and your partner love games and puzzles, then heading to an escape room is the ultimate brain-stimulating date. Here, you can test and improve your problem-solving and teamwork skills as a couple.
2. Visit an animal shelter
What could be better than visiting an animal shelter with your other half? In addition to spending quality time with your partner you get to spend time with a ton of cute animals, whether you and your partner prefers cats or dogs.
3. Go to a planetarium
There’s nothing more romantic than a sky full of stars – and, at the planetarium, you can experience this every day. Spend a night learning all about the incredible constellations in the sky, all while sharing the experience with your other half.
4. Attend a comedy show
Laughter is the best medicine – and it’s also a great way to bond with your other half. By attending a comedy show and sharing the experience, not only does the laughter make you feel good, but the effect will be amplified since you and your partner shared the experience together.
5. Have a picnic in the garden
Instead of driving to a far-away location to have a picnic date, why not shake things up and have a picnic in your garden? For one, it’s closer to the kitchen (in case you forget anything) and – even better – you can enjoy more intimacy with your partner, since you’re in the privacy of your own property.
6. Couple’s massage
Whether you choose to go to a spa or you have a masseuse come to your home, there’s nothing like having your stresses massaged away – and knowing that your partner is right next to you experiencing the same makes it even better.
7. Draw a relaxing bubble bath
For a date you don’t have to go far afield for, drawing a bubble bath for yourself and your partner to share is the ultimate unique, romantic, indoor date. You could even watch a movie and crack open a bottle of wine in the tub.
8. Visit a botanical garden
If you and your partner both love nature – and especially plants – then a trip to the botanical gardens is a great way to spend an afternoon. Plus, it’s a great place to get some inspiration for your current or future garden in the home you share.
9. Take a dance lesson
Learning any new skill with your partner is great, rewarding way to spend some quality time together, but taking dance lessons might top them all. After all, once you’ve learned the basics, you can reuse your newfound skills again and again, and practice your new moves together around your home.
10. Get a Meet Cute box
A unique, fun way to do date night from the comfort of your own home, getting a Meet Cute box delivered to your door is a great way to spend quality time with your partner when you don’t feel like going out. Meet Cute boxes are curated by hand according to your couple’s member profile. This means that each date-night box is customized with you and your partner in mind. Each month, a differently themed Meet Cute box will be delivered to your door, so that you always have an intimate, low-maintenance date night to look forward to!
