Celebration Dates

There are so many special moments in a relationship that are amazing opportunities for your beautiful romance to be remembered and celebrated. Take every opportunity to nurture and grow your bonds by remembering the special moments that brought you closer.

Your Very First Meeting

There are so many ways that this auspicious moment can be remembered. Recreate the moment that that first online meeting became the real-life date, that moment your eyes first met across that crowded room or when the rest of the club disappeared around that one special person. This is the moment that your lives became beautifully linked and should be the cornerstone celebration for every relationship.

Your First Date

This defining relationship moment is most often observed. Remember those wild, uncontrollable emotions causing sweaty palms, heart palpitations and butterflies in the stomach. Although they were probably caused by the self-doubt of having selected the right venue, of picking the right outfit and have set the emergency exit strategy with your bestie, they should never be forgotten.

Breaking out the “I Love You”

Oh yes, this is another moment filled with anxiety and uncertainty. Will this special person feel the same, is it too soon to say something or how do I lead up to this declaration of my feelings? If you have made it to this point in your relationship, then you are most likely to remember that wash of relief and the overwhelming feeling of love to hear that you have read the signs correctly.

Telling Your Friends the News

There are another whole lot of firsts here. Why not celebrate the time when you announced your relationship status change to your friends and family.

Easter is synonymous with chocolate and so why not relive this special time of the year with loads and loads of it. Chocolate in its many forms, after all, could be an adventure in its own right.

• Get to your nearest Lindt store in most malls worldwide and choose a decadent chocolate treat for your partner. Huge, delicious chocolate surprises line their shelves just waiting for you to spoil your special someone.
• Purdy’s is another gorgeous chocolatier with a large selection of hand-crafted chocolate goodies perfect for the occasion.
• Create a decadent chocolate dessert for that special menu you have prepared for your Easter home date.

Your First Concert Together

Here is a great excuse to relive a blast from the past. This is the music that binds you together and is an amazing way to remember those heady early days.

Celebrate the Anniversary of Your First Holiday

A safari holiday, a trip to a tropical paradise, the nostalgic and romantic vacation on a steam train. These are normally high budget getaways so it is better to set a date and start planning for it well in advance. It doesn’t have to be the same trip that you originally did. Mix it up a bit with a bucket list destination or activity.

Remake the dinner date that didn’t quite work out

Now is your opportunity to fine-tune or even make amends for that first home-cooked dinner date that didn’t quite go the way it was planned. Add a fun twist to the original recipe and do it deconstructed or fine dining. Choose the right wine this time or make sure that you leave that allergy-inducing ingredient out. There are so many hilarious mistakes we make with that first attempt and it is always fun remembering them.

Movie Dates Are Always Winners

Now that you know each other better it is always fun to alternate in watching movies that appeal to yourself or your partner. This is a perfect excuse to watch that “tear-jerker” or “chick-flick” you always wanted to watch but would never admit to your friends. Blame it on having to do it for your other half and you are that win-win situation.

Monthly Date Night

This is for the workaholics amongst us. If you are always too busy or feel guilty when spending time on yourself rather than working, this one is for you. Schedule yourselves a date night once a month. Diarize it or put it in your calendar as a recurring reminder and make sure that you schedule life around that date. You won’t regret it.
