To keep hard at our alphabet dates series, we’re getting to the letter L. From our Lakeside adventures to going to see Live theatre plays, we’ve been doing quite good with this letter.

Eric and I have been together for years and are now married!

Top 3 L Date Ideas for Couples

1. Lakeside Picnic
   • Why It’s the Best: It’s effortlessly romantic and offers a serene environment. The calming waters and the potential for sunset or sunrise viewing make it perfect.
   • How to Make It More Romantic: Bring a handwoven blanket, gourmet food items, soft music, and perhaps a poetry book. A surprise bottle of champagne or wine can also enhance the mood.
2. Live Theatre Show
   • Why It’s the Best: Theatre shows are engaging and provide a cultured experience. They’re widely available and require little to no preparation, aside from buying tickets. We highly recommend detective theatre play. We recently saw Ghost 2:22 with Sophia Bush in London and we also saw The Mousetrap based on Agatha Christie’s book and Eric and I had a great night each time!
   • How to Make It More Romantic: Arrive early to walk around the theater district, have dinner at a nearby intimate restaurant before the show, and discuss the play during an after-show dessert.
3. Lavender Oil Massage
   • Why It’s the Best: It’s relaxing, intimate, and promotes closeness. Lavender is known for its relaxation properties, making it ideal.
   • How to Make It More Romantic: Set the scene with soft music, dim lights, or candles. Warm the oil slightly before the massage and maybe follow with a warm bath together, sprinkled with lavender petals.
