1. Set the Mood

Send your sweetheart a Valentine's Day invitation ahead of time without revealing the details of your plans. On the big day, leave love notes for your special someone to find. Want to add a bit more intrigue? Use a pen name or sign as a “secret admirer”.

2. All in the Ambience

Appeal to all the senses to ensure an enchanting evening. First set the stage for romance with dimmed lighting, candles or firelight. Consider using scented candles with a musky scent to kindle the mood and select soft, quiet music with more intimate appeal. Set the table with your best china, as well as a floral arrangement of your beloved’s favourite flowers.

3. A Romantic Feast

Rich, delicious chocolate has long been associated with Valentine's Day––and widely believed to have aphrodisiac properties. Chocolate truffles, cake, brownies, cream or mousse are all sensuous sweets to indulge in together. Or prepare a simple parfait with vanilla ice cream, topped with chocolate sauce and decorated with half a banana resting against the rim of the glass. Garnish with whipped cream, cherries and enjoy!
