Romantic Picnic Ideas for Couples
Here are lots of romantic picnic ideas for couples who are looking for an easy romantic getaway or unique romantic date ideas.
A short romantic getaway picnic is an awesome way to spend quality time.
A picnic meal made just for two can be very romantic. Here are some tips for spending a few hours with that special someone in your life.
A romantic picnic is all about atmosphere. The right location can signal to your special someone exactly how you are feeling. If you are fortunate enough to live near water, the evening sunset from the beach or a pier can set the mood.
For urban locations, the setting sun against the skyscrapers is also a wonderful sight.
Till I loved I never lived. ~Emily Dickinson
Your romantic picnic doesn’t have to be in a place that you can only reach by car. The comfort of your own backyard can be romantic and inviting. On a warm spring night, lighting tiki torches around the patio or stringing white lights around the patio umbrella gives your home the feeling of a foreign atmosphere. They can take you from the suburbs to somewhere exotic in little time at all.
Nothing says romance like a bottle of bubbly. Another benefit of a backyard romantic picnic is that you don’t have to worry about driving home after consuming all of that champagne. Let the champagne or wine chill in an ice bucket. Cover the table with a lacy tablecloth for an elegant meal together.
This is supposed to be a romantic event so do away with the plastic cups and other disposable items. Use real plates, silverware, napkins, and champagne flutes. Set up a CD player or mp3 player with speakers to enhance the evening with romantic music. Candles on the table add a classic touch of romance.
Choose food according to the time of year. In the spring or summer, a cold meal can beat the heat. Choose chocolate covered strawberries that have been well chilled to complement the champagne. Cheese and crackers are light and easy to fix. A seafood or chicken salad on a bed of romaine lettuce is ideal on a warm evening.
When evenings are cooler in the fall and winter months, make a warm seafood bisque or chowder to take off the chill. Serve with warm toast points or oyster crackers. A creamy dessert, preferably warm, can make a well rounded meal.
You may opt for something other than champagne when the weather gets cold. Enjoy your dessert with an Irish coffee or an after dinner cognac to warm you up. Use your imagination. If you can pack it, you can enjoy it picnic style.
Romance comes in many forms ...even a picnic basket.
Surprise your significant other with a few hours away from it all in dreamy bliss. A romantic picnic may be just what you both need.
The only true gift is a portion of yourself. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson
