Head on a mini road trip<\/h2>\n

Minimoons<\/a> have become a popular choice for modern couples. A weekend getaway might be exactly the break you need before planning a proper honeymoon down the line.<\/p>\n

For the adventurous newlyweds, simply pack the car and make your way to any local country towns with scenic campsites.<\/p>\n

For those who prefer something a little more fancy, book a cosy Air BnB and spend the weekend reading books, relaxing and enjoying one another’s company.<\/p>\n

Recreate your first date together<\/h2>\n

\"date<\/p>\n

This is a super adorable date night idea that’ll get you remembering why you fell in love in the first place.<\/p>\n

Spend the night reminiscing on your first date, and telling one another about first impressions and how you each felt on that first date.<\/p>\n

Go to a local festival or fete<\/h2>\n

Check your city’s upcoming events, there’s always something interesting just around the corner.<\/p>\n

Attending a local beer or food festival might be the perfect way to spend the day with one another, enjoying the festivities, good food and good company.<\/p>\n

It might be just what you need to break the monotonous cycle everyday life can fall into.<\/p>\n

Have a board game night<\/h2>\n

This date is a dream come true for board game lovers. Simply purchase some cheese, cured meats, wine and break out your favourite board game for a fun night in. To spice it up, you could even offer prizes for the winner. For example, the loser has to give the winner a back massage!<\/p>\n

Attend a dance class<\/h2>\n

\"date<\/p>\n

This one might not be everyone’s cup of tea, but for adventurous couples attending a dance class might be the fun date night activity you’ve been looking for.<\/p>\n

After the dance class, you could even have a glass of wine together and practice your new moves.<\/p>\n

Visit the local observatory or go stargazing<\/h2>\n

If you’re looking to inject some romance and magic into your post-wedding life, star gazing is the perfect solution.<\/p>\n

For those who live too far away from an observatory, simply set up a picnic in a secluded area unpolluted by city lights.<\/p>\n

Plan a picnic<\/h2>\n

\"date<\/p>\n

Picnics are perfect for date nights. Grab your picnic blanket, rug up and set up somewhere with a beautiful view.<\/p>\n

To make it more fun, give each person a task: one person is in charge of the cheese platter, another is in charge of the wine and dessert.<\/p>\n

Spend the day at an amusement park<\/h2>\n

If you have an amusement park in your city, set a date for the pair of you to attend. Make sure the entire day is free – you’ll need it all to fully enjoy running around like children again.<\/p>\n

Tour local wineries or breweries<\/h2>\n

For wine and beer lovers, the perfect date night might be a day out touring local wineries and breweries. You could even mix this date idea with your minimoon and stay somewhere known for its vineyards.<\/p>\n

Visit tourist attractions in your city<\/h2>\n

We all know of the local tourist attractions in our city, but have you visited them in recent years? A great date night idea is to pack a bag full of snacks and goodies and play tourist for the day, getting to know your city a little better.<\/p>\n
