Tips for the Perfect NJ Valentine’s Date and Gift

Valentine’s Day is quickly approaching. Now is the time to show thoughtfulness to your loved one by planning the perfect date and gift.

Prepare for the Perfect Valentine’s Date

One of the best ways to ensure a successful, romantic Valentine’s date is to plan it ahead of time. Give yourself enough time to think about all the little details which will add up to make it something truly special. Will you plan a romantic candle light dinner in, or go out to a favorite restaurant? Keep in mind that any restaurant reservations need to be made early, and depending on the location may book out weeks ahead of Valentine’s Day. If dining in, plan the menu to include her favorite foods and take the time to think about presentation. Dress to impress your lady and make the date more of an event by preparing multiple activities to be enjoyed throughout the day. Prepare all the little things such as massage oil, a romantic playlist, candles, chocolates, flowers and other small gifts ahead of time. Also be sure to take the time to write a card, which is really more like a love letter, to present on Valentine’s Day.

Thoughtfully Selected Jewelry is the Perfect Valentine’s Gift

There is a reason that jewelry is such a popular Valentine’s Day gift. For one, jewelry is timeless. It’s the perfect representation of romance and beauty. It’s also practical, as it can be worn everyday and cherished for a lifetime.

Here are some things to keep in mind while selecting jewelry for your special someone:

Learn About Jewelry She Already Has

Take the time to observe your loved one’s jewelry and take note of what pieces she tends to gravitate towards. Be sure to take note of what colors and metals she has in her collection. By doing so, you can help ensure you will select something that she wants to wear. This is a great time to compliment her pieces and subtly learn more about her overall style.

Make It Meaningful

You can add extra thoughtfulness to your gift by letting special moments between you and your loved one inspire your selection. An easy way to do this is to write down some of your favorite memories with this special person and then select one you want to symbolize through the piece you choose. For instance, if you shared your first kiss on the beach, you can choose a piece that evokes that special moment. You can also plan your Valentine’s Day around presenting your gift and make it a special moment. Maybe you plan a romantic dinner followed by a walk under the stars and then present a star necklace. The ideas are limitless, and the outcome of jewelry symbolizing something special will mean the world to her.

Make It Part of the Date

Another idea, which is especially good for those who are feeling overwhelmed about making the right selection, is to make jewelry shopping a part of your special Valentine’s date. If your loved one loves to shop, this is a great way to surprise them. You can plan a romantic day full of activities that she loves and then take her to the jewelry store and tell her you would like to get her something special to signify this lovely day.
