Romance and Serenade Her<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Throwing expensive surprises is not a necessity during this day of celebrating hearts and roses, just to make your partner feel the love. You can definitely have a lovely Valentine\u2019s Day without spending a month\u2019s worth of salary or savings. Simplicity is the key to the heart and as a famous saying goes, \u201cIt\u2019s the thought that counts\u201d.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Serenading is one of the oldest but most effective ways of wooing your love interest off her feet. Not only that, but it is equally inexpensive. As one of the timeless Filipino songs asks, \u201c<em>Uso pa ba ang harana<\/em>?\u201d, you can prove to your partner that chivalry is definitely not lost. By singing a song or two, or asking someone to do so to your lady, you will give her the idea that you are always willing to romance her.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">5. The Valentine Treasure Hunt<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">A scavenger hunt on the 14th? Why not!

It is simple and again, inexpensive.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Send your partner into a hunt for the series of love messages you prepared for and clues to where the next \u201clove treasure\u201d is. Have them hidden anywhere or ask someone to hide it for you. You can lead your Valentine into places that mean significantly to both of you, or to a date like Casa Real <a href=\"https:\/\/leasing.dmcihomes.com\/events\/\">Events Hall<\/a> where Love and All that Jazz will definitely happen this Valentine\u2019s Day!<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">6. Book It<\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_1854\" style=\"width: 743px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1854\" class=\" wp-image-1854 \" src=\"https:\/\/leasing.dmcihomes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/6-2.jpg\" alt=\"Acacia Estate, Casa Real\" width=\"733\" height=\"499\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-1854\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Acacia Estate, Casa Real<\/p><\/div>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">A survey on Your Tango says that a majority of men and women, around 50 to 60 percent, believe that a weekend getaway is a perfect celebration of Valentine\u2019s Day. You can always call an agency to help you out on this, but if you are on a tight budget yet still onto that time alone and away with your partner, the next best thing would be to book a room at a hotel with the amenities you and your partner would enjoy, like swimming pools and spas with breakfast deals.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">This change of surroundings eases the pressure you get from work, and even from home. A planned hotel or resort-themed getaway near you like in <a href=\"https:\/\/leasing.dmcihomes.com\/blog\/events-casa-real-acacia-estates\/\">Casa Real Taguig<\/a> will just be perfect night to end your 14th of February.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">7. Relax and Get a Massage<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Massage is not a famous to-do activity during Valentine\u2019s Day, but it is definitely a must-do. Not only will you pamper and relax yourselves together by going to a nearby spa, but this can also inspire a regular \u201ccouple thing\u201d that you can do yourselves.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">If you\u2019re on a tight budget, giving your partner a massage is a brilliant way to extend that care and caress to him or her. It can be again, inexpensive and very simple: do a little online research about different kinds of massages, just grab some scented candles and body oils, and take turns in massaging one another with some jazz music on the background.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">8. The Path of Petals<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Women are known to have a soft spot for romantic gestures. What you see in some romantic movies: do it.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">A path of petals as she wakes up in the morning will start to give her that feeling of excitement for your day together. Leaving a trail from the foot of the bed leading to your dining table where you have prepared food is a good way of starting out your Valentine\u2019s Day morning.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">When you add some flowers and a written invitation for the two of you to an event hall this evening, the corny romance in all of it will surely get your partner that excitement and anticipation.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">9. Homebodies: Uninterrupted Time Together<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Who says that you can\u2019t stay at home and have a great Valentine\u2019s Day together? Love is best felt during uninterrupted time together. Staying at home with rented movies, delivered or cooked food, and a lot of pillow talks may just be the best Valentine\u2019s Day gift you and your partner could give to each other, especially when work and school always gets in between you.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Turning off your phones and staying away from the internet will add intimacy to your \u201chome date\u201d. This will give you time to talk and communicate intimately to each other, remembering that \u201cCommunication is a must in every relationship\u201d.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">10. HHWW: Take that Walk<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Don\u2019t have events to attend to or places to go to on the 14th with your loved one? You don\u2019t have to worry. That is what the internet is for. Google a map or recommended places to go on a date near you or just simply ask your partner to go for a walk.<\/p>\n<p>Go on foot and when you meet intersections, flip a coin for directions and see where it takes you. You might end up discovering new places to eat in with your partner. In addition, you get extra time to do a mild exercise with your partner.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">11. Fancy Up<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Women love it when they get to doll themselves up. No matter where the two of you have planned to go on Valentine\u2019s Night, dress up in your finest.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Dressing up and good grooming will make your celebration feel extra special. Plus, both of you will have a chance to see each other in that fine clothing; women will see their men all brushed up and men will see all curves of their lady in that tight flattering dress.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">12. Capture the Moment<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Photos preserve memories. Capturing your moments together on the special day will give you something to look at after the night, or even years, of your relationship. These will help you look back and give you inspiration to create better moments in days to come.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">You can visit professional studios to go on a photoshoot or ask a photographer friend to do it for you. But it can also be really inexpensive and fun: simply pull out your camera or any device that captures pictures and click click click wherever you and your partner go. At the end of the day, compiling them in a photo album or journal will surely be a unique Valentine\u2019s Day idea.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">13. Under the Stars<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">After eating your buffet dinner at Casa Real Fa\u00e7ade for the Love and All that Jazz, go stargazing. It can go as simple as staying on your roof deck or it can also be a little more fun and romantic by setting up a tent in your backyard.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">This quiet evening, just like on those movies that women surely appreciate, will end your Valentine\u2019s night perfectly.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">14. Eat Out<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Lunch is one of the things that people forget on Valentine\u2019s Day. It is as important as any other meal during the day, so you also have to prepare for it. However, you don\u2019t have to book a reservation in a fanciful restaurant if it\u2019s not your thing or if it\u2019s not within the scope of your budget.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">A Valentine\u2019s Day will be equally awesome even if it\u2019s just a simple lunch date on your garden. Jazz it up by setting a picnic on backyard or at the roof deck of your condo in the Philippines with a good view of the sky and cityscape.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">At the end of the day, it will not be about how much you have spent for the surprises you have prepared for your partner, but it will be about how well you have spent the day with him or her on this special occasion. \u201cQuality over quantity\u201d, as the saying goes.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">You don\u2019t have to impress your other half; you just have to know how to spend quality time with love and romance. Simple gestures and words meant for your partner beat extravagant surprises that are only meant for impressing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Love Month has finally arrived.
