5 Romantic Date Night Ideas by the Fire

Whether it’s a special occasion or simply an at-home date night, there’s no better way to create a romantic ambiance than lighting a fire in the fireplace. Here are some fireside date night ideas to get those sparks flying:

1.Play a game – This is one of the best ways to break free from the usual routine and do something to lighten the mood. Plus, a little friendly competition might be just what you need! Try one of the classics, like Dominoes, Scrabble, Checkers, Chess, or Mancala, or learn to play a new game. Check out the top games for 2021 here.

2. Do a puzzle – both enjoying a fire and completing a puzzle can have a calming effect on people – why not mix the two together? For an extra romantic gesture, order a customized puzzle with a picture of you together as the image. You can usually order these at zazzle.com, gotprint.com, shutterfly.com, and even some Walgreens locations.

3. Have an indoor campout, complete with gourmet s’mores of course – because you’re never too old to camp in the living room! Turn off the lights, pretend there’s no electricity, and get the campfire stories out for this one. Click here to shop our S’mores gift basket complete with everything you need for this date!

4. Hold your own wine tasting – get some mini wine samplers, make a nice charcuterie board and enjoy trying some new wines while relaxing by the fire. You can find some of our favorite wines here.

5. Have a craft night – making something together can be a great way to get creative and express yourselves! Here are some creative DIY’s that can be both fun and functional.
