Hey hey cuties – long time, no talk! The last few months have been such a whirlwind for me. I started my own pop-up clothing shop, Thrive Collective (click here), which meant traveling around to different fairs and festivals almost every weekend throughout the Fall and my work life has been veryyy busy. If you don’t know, I’m an Assistant Account Executive at a marketing agency and I recently did a “Day In My Life” on my Instagram highlights (click here) if you want to see what it’s like to have my job! But I’m so excited to be posting on here again and to share some cute date night ideas for the holiday season… let’s get into it!
Christmas Tree Farm: Christmas tree farms are the best! You have a couple options… you can find a garden center type of place that’s selling pre-cut trees or you can go to an actual Christmas tree farm where you pick a tree and cut it down yourself. A fun thing about having a date at a Christmas tree farm is that they typically have hot chocolate and other treats that you can buy and really make a whole day out of it!
Ice Skating: A winter ice skating date is such a classic! My boyfriend and I are both terrible at ice skating so we’ve never done this but if at least one person in the couple is okay-ish at ice skating, this would be so cute and active!
Netflix & Baking: This one is soooo easy. Recently, my boyfriend and I have watched The Knight Before Christmas, A Christmas Prince: The Royal Wedding, The Holiday Calendar, Christmas in the Smokies, and Christmas with a View on Netflix and they were all so cute (and a little bit cringe-worthy) – just like a Hallmark Christmas movie! Also, if you’ve subscribed to Disney+, this would be the perfect time to binge your old favorites! While you’re watching, pop some cookies in the oven and you’ll have such a fun, low-key night.
Gift Shopping & Christmas Lights: Another idea is doing some holiday shopping. You both have gifts to buy so why not do it together? A perk of this date idea is if you see something that’s on your wish list, you can make a few subtle hints with him right there. 🙂 Then, when you’re going home, take the long way to see all the Christmas lights that people put up!
I hope some of those ideas sound fun to you! It’s such a cute season to be going on dates, whether it’s with someone new or someone you’ve been with for a while. If you have any other posts you’d like to see during the holiday season, leave a comment down below. Have a great week!
