Top 3 Y Date Ideas

1. Yacht Evening with Candlelit Dinner:
   • Why It’s the Best: Nothing screams romance like an intimate dinner on the water. This date idea may sound luxurious but can be achieved with smaller budget options too. We highly recommend looking at your local port for Yacht rentals by the hour.
   • How to Make It More Romantic: Pre-plan a playlist of both of your favorite romantic songs. Surprise your partner with a handwritten love note or poem and exchange them during dinner.
2. Yearly Love Letter Exchange:
   • Why It’s the Best: This is a very personal and intimate way to reflect on your past year together. Plus, it’s practically free and very easy to do.
   • How to Make It More Romantic: Set the scene. Light some candles, play soft background music, and make it an annual tradition. This way, you’ll have a collection of letters throughout your years together.
3. Yoga Session During Sunset:
   • Why It’s the Best: Yoga is a wonderful way to connect not just with yourself but with your partner as well. Doing it during sunset adds a touch of magic.
   • How to Make It More Romantic: Choose a quiet, scenic spot, whether it’s at the beach, a hill overlooking your city, or even your backyard. Finish the session with a calming meditation focused on love and gratitude.

With every letter, we’re getting closer to the letter Z! Y was a bit easier than X. Our favorite was definitely going to a couple of Yoga sessions with puppies (Cockapoos and Shih Tzus). It was a lot of fun!
