Valentine’s Day is all about showing the love to those special people in your life. So, we’ve come up with a few ways you can dial up the romance without breaking the budget. 

 #1 Get comfy for the occasion 

 If a great night in is your idea of a romantic evening, why not have a little fun in the process? Grab matching pyjamas for you and your partner from Lowes and spend the night cuddled-up on the couch. 

#2 Date night dinner 

 A Valentine’s Day dinner doesn’t have to break the bank. Sometimes just getting out of the house for a bite to eat breaks the routine and gives you some alone time together. Reserve a table in-centre at your favourite restaurant and finish the evening off with an ice-cream or sweet treat.

#3 Sweets for your sweetheart 

Nothing says ‘I love you’ like a box of fancy chocolates or a delicious pastry or cake from Candy Alley. And the great thing about this gift is you get to share in the love. Yum. 

#4 Everyone loves being pampered 

Treat your Valentine to some self-care. Book them a little spa treatment, a time to get their nails done, or a relaxing massage from CMA Traditional Healing and they’ll thank you over and over. 

#5 The one gift challenge 

How well do you think you know your partner? And how well do they know you? Here’s a fun way to find out as well as adding a touch of spontaneity and surprise to the day. Set a challenge where you have 30 minutes to find a gift in-centre, with a set budget and let the Valentine fun begin.

#6 Let your love sparkle 

Bring the sparkle this Valentine’s Day by dazzling your partner with some jewellery from Angus & Coote. You could even go all out with a new matching outfit for a complete Valentine’s Day makeover. 

#7 DIY flower bouquet

Stop by Coles and/or Woolworths and create a custom bouquet at home. Choose their favourite colours and flowers to make a Valentine’s Day bunch that they’ll love.

#8 Bake a sweet treat for your love

Tell your Valentine how much they really mean to you. Bake some heart-shaped cookies and then write personalised messages in icing that let them know that you think they’re the best.

#9 Love letter surprise

Pick out a decorative card from Nextra or make your own with craft supplies and write a letter to each other. What better way to show the love than to write it?

A little act of love goes a long way and at Ellenbrook Central we’ve got you covered this Valentine’s Day.
