Ideas For A Romantic Candlelight Dinner
Make Arrangements
Having a candlelight dinner is practically impossible instantly. Serious planning and arrangements have to go in to spice up things with your spouse. In case the dinner is a surprise, then casually ask him/her about free dates and take him/her to the venue so decided. However, if you both are planning to spend some private moments together, make sure that both of you are free on the decided date. Also, ensure that the two of you are alone at home. If you have kids, either arrange a babysitter for them or, best, drop them at your parents’ place. They sure wouldn’t mind, right!
Invitation
Instead of revealing out the plan days before the actual dinner, inform your partner about the dinner on the morning of the date. Prepare a romantic invitation card and hand it over to him/her just before he/she is leaving for work. For a more exciting and passionate feel, add a bouquet of flowers along with the card.
Decoration
Ambiance is an important aspect for a truly romantic dinner. Spend an extra evening in getting the materials for decorating your home and converting it into a romantic setting. Get different types of fresh flowers and arrange them in vases placed all over your home. For the dining table, spread out a lovely tablecloth and place a beautiful and lovely candle holder in the center. Fit in a candle in the holder. Light aromatic candles all around the place and complete the look with festival lights. Take out your best cutlery saved for special occasions, such as stylish and expensive bowls, plates, spoons, forks, glasses, etc.
Menu
