Last minute valentine

Okay so I did NOT wait til the last minute to set up to ask my girl to be my valentine but I know a lot of people do it the day before or the day of valentines. If you’re crunched for time here’s some ideas:

1) Balloons & decor have a cute little photoshoot with your valentine 💌

2) Valentines Breakfast in bed or themed breakfast. Think red velvet, strawberry, and other pink/red foods 🍓

3) Movies 🎥 Last minute movie plans can be a lifesaver when you’ve forgotten. If your valentine enjoys movies it may be worth it to get a A24 subscription for them often times members get free tickets 🎟️

4) Art activities together: Buy a craft or paint kit from any store and set up for the activity together. Bonus: Put together a picnic and do the craft out at a park or on the beach to seem like you put extra effort in. 💘

5) Go on a day trip; There’s so many hidden gems go explore some hidden gem places with your valentine and make lasting memories together 💌
