Romantic Christmas Ideas for a Fiancé
- Instead of saving all of your gifts for your fiancé to open on Christmas Day, spread them out over the days leading up to Christmas. Taking a cue from the song "The Twelve Days of Christmas," organize 12 special gifts for your fiance. Start 11 days before Christmas by giving him the first gift and hand-deliver the twelfth and final gift on Christmas Day. Sentimental gifts that relate to your engagement or relationship increase the romance. For example, you might create a photo collage of the engagement or plan a trip back to the spot where you got engaged. Another option is to give him a romantic note detailing a special memory from your relationship on each day leading up to Christmas.
- If you experience a white Christmas, bundle up and head outdoors for some entertainment in the snow. The playful nature of the outdoor activity will put you both at ease. Once you head indoors to warm up, allow yourselves to heat up even more. Another option is to take a walk together to enjoy the snowy scenery, which makes a romantic backdrop for your time together. Christmas lights add to the romantic Christmas feeling as you walk around the neighborhood.
- A Christmas tree offers an ideal hiding spot for special notes or gifts. When your fiancé isn't around, hide little notes, photos or gifts amidst the tree branches. Choose items with a romantic theme, such as a love note or photo from a romantic date you shared. Inform your fiancé of the hidden treasures in the tree and watch him search for them. When all of the treasures are located, the two of you can look over them together and reminisce.
- Cooking is often considered a romantic activity for a couple. Instead of going to a large Christmas party on Christmas Day, stay at home and cook a meal together. If you have family commitments, plan a private Christmas meal for Christmas Eve. Work in some aphrodisiacs like chocolate and red wine to increase the romantic aspect of the meal. When dinner is ready, eat by the glow of the Christmas lights or a few Christmas-themed candles.
