Are you already planning on making dinner tonight? Perfect! Just print off these super cute printables {below} to go with it, and you have yourself an instant date night. Yep, it’s that easy! Sometimes life gets crazy and we don’t always have time to plan or prepare something super fancy, but it’s the little things that mean the most. Just a few minutes of your time can change your usual, normal dinner routine into a night of fun and flirting with your sweetie in your very own at-home restaurant!
The idea for this dinner date is that you’re going to be turning your dining room into a restaurant for two. Our creative Diva Becca came up with this brilliant idea, and we have updated and added to it to create the perfect print-and-go date night for you! We have some fabulous printables designed by our talented Courtney from the site Paperelli to help you turn your normal meal into a dinner date night for two—you are definitely going to want to pin these ridiculously cuuuute ideas! Just check out everything she created for you:
Your Dinner + Our Flirty Menu = Cozy Café for Two
We’ve hooked you up with your own printable menu and the best part is the PRICES! Instead of using cash, your spouse is going to have to pay in affection! So while a glass of water may only cost him a peck, the salad will add 2 bear hugs to his tab, and the lasagna entrée will set him back 5 passionate kisses. Fun, right?
You can use our menu for a yummy lasagna dinner, or use the blank menu to customize it with your honey’s favorite meal (or whatever you were already planning on cookin’.) See? Totally easy!
Your Spouse + Our Printable Bill = A Night of Huggin’ & Lovin’
At the end of the meal, you’ll be presenting your spouse with their bill to claim what they owe you. Just check off the appropriate boxes in the included check and let them know that tipping is strongly encouraged! {wink, wink}
Your Dining Room + Our Decor Items = An EXTRA Special Meal
If you have a couple extra minutes to spare, why not make it a little more special? Go ahead and pull out your nice dishes, a tablecloth, some music, flowers, and maybe a candle or two. You can add our printable heart rings to fancy napkins (or just paper ones!) to add that special touch. Your love is definitely worth a little extra effort. Finally, leave this little place card at their place setting to give them a little insight into what you have in store!
- Tip: Can’t get a sitter for the kiddos? Let them in on the fun and ask them to help by being the restaurant servers. Diva Becca did this for Valentine’s Day, and her girls had so much fun getting into character. She dressed them to fit the part with aprons and everything. Her 5-year-old was waiting by the door for-ever for her daddy to come home so she could welcome him to “Cupid’s Cafe.” They had a lot of fun, and they got to see a great example of dating after marriage! Then after dinner, send those little ones to bed so you can claim what he owes you!! {wink}
Enjoy turning a normal meal into something a little more special! With these printables, it only takes a little more effort to show love to your spouse! Enjoy! SaveSave
