It’s time to start packing those bags so you can finally take that romantic weekend getaway you’ve been putting off. Whether you’re heading to that quaint, charming town next door or a few states away, here are some tips for planning your very own romantic weekend trip.

Try Something New

Maybe you’re both into museums or browsing through antique stores. Whatever your interests, be sure to plan an activity that’s completely new for both of you. Ever taken a cooking class? Want to try zip-lining? Doing something new together is an incredible bonding experience and adds a completely new level of excitement.

Be Spontaneous

It’s perfectly fine to have a few planned events to look forward to. However, you’re much more likely to feel those romantic vibes if you let the spontaneity flow. Ask the hotel concierge where there’s a good local breakfast spot. Get lost downtown. Keep the mood light and fun by going with the flow.

Have Fun

While you might feel inclined to throw romantic dinners and massage therapy sessions into your schedule, remember that’s true romance is all about having fun, being adventurous, and enjoying life together. Just make sure you also plan some activities that you don’t have to get dressed up for. Head to a local pub. Catch a local band. It’s time to think outside of the box.
