Well folks, it’s that time of year again. February 14th — a day that people seem to either love or loathe.
Whether cupid is your hero or you’d prefer to skip the day altogether, Valentine’s Day can be viewed as an opportunity to offer a little extra affection to that special person in your life. And, while fancy gifts aren’t essential when showing someone you care, they don’t necessarily hurt — especially if you nail it with a gift that matches your partner's personality and interests.
We know that coming up with the perfect gift can be tough, so here are some ideas based on your partner’s ideal way to spend a date in the Okanagan.
Dinner and a show
Does your partner love to get dressed up and spend a night out on the town? Some tasty eats, quality entertainment and a glass of wine or two make for a classic and romantic date night. The Chase Wines + Garden Bistro in Lake Country has some amazing dinner and wine options, and they happen to be sponsoring a great live event on February 15th!
To top off the evening, present your loved one with a gift that matches their taste for quality and elegance. A nice watch or piece of jewelry are timeless gifts that rarely disappoint.
You can even choose a watch and bracelet that pair nicely together if you're going for a double whammy.
Need some more specific ideas? The Nixon Sentry Chrono Leather Watch is the perfect combination of rugged and sophisticated, made with a leather gator strap, stainless steel buckle and custom molded hands.
The Cluse Triomphe Mesh Bicolour Watch is a beautiful and unique timepiece with rose gold accents with a stainless steel strap. Add the Cluse Open Circle Marble Hexagon Chain Bracelet for an elegant touch.
Spending the day at Big White
Big White is a great place for a date, whether your partner loves to hit first tracks and shred the gnar, stroll through the snow and go for a skate, or après-all-day.
If your date is a skier or boarder, a brand spankin’ new pair of goggles should do the trick. They say love is blind, but when it comes to tearing it up on the hill, being able to see is quite helpful.
SPY makes some great options for goggles. Try the SPY Marshall Herringbone Goggle in their favourite colour!
Or, help keep your partner’s noggin as warm as their heart with a quality toque.
The Brixton Beanie in Black is always a great choice, or try a Pomm Beanie in Pink for something a little more fun.
Sleeping under the stars
If you have an adventurer on your hands, their ideal date may involve packing up the tent and getting out of the hustle and bustle of the city for a night. There’s nothing quite as sweet as snuggling up by a campfire under the stars together, perhaps with a s’more and beverage in hand.
If your better half loves camping, why not get them something to make their favourite activity more comfortable? When it comes to spending time in the great outdoors, a quality pair of underwear can make all the difference. SAXX are always a great option.
Some may argue that the best things about camping are the food and drinks. Help keep your partner’s favourites fresh so they can eat (and drink) their heart out with some reliable YETI products.
Hiking and picnicking on Knox Mountain
Being active and getting some fresh air is a great way to bond. If your date loves nothing more than a bit of exercise and a nice view (balanced out with some charcuterie), then you can’t go wrong with a mountaintop picnic.
Your partner is sure to appreciate a convenient and stylish way to carry their belongings while they hike throughout the Okanagan. Plus, you’ll need a way to transport all that cheese on your date.
The North Face Base Camp Duffel is an innovate bag that can be used as a duffel or backpack, and The North Face Isabella Backpack is perfect for day trips!
