Valentine’s Day is the perfect holiday to show someone how much you like them. It is a great way to show your love and appreciation for another person. Valentine’s Day gifts can vary from a hand-written card to a bouquet of flowers, but the gift is not all that matters.
There are many different ways to ask your favorite person to be your valentine. You can do something as small from a hand-written card to a big poster. Snacks and treats are always great to give as well because no one will skip out on a sweet treat!
Simple Ideas:
- Starbucks Drink: You can buy your valentine a starbucks drink and write on the lid/cup and ask “Will you be my Valentine” with check boxes that say yes or no! It’s a super cute idea and they get their favorite drink out of it.
- Handmade Card: Making even a simple could be the best gesture- a cute drawing of even just a heat and a little note expressing how you feel about your soon to be valentine
Extravagant Ideas:
- Poster: There are so many things that you can put on a poster to ask them to be your Valentine. You can do your favorite song lyrics and move them around to pop the question. Or you can just say “Will you be my Valentine?” with their favorite color – and you can even bring candy/snacks on the side.
- Chocolate covered strawberries: A super cute way could be to buy/make chocolate covered strawberries and find some way to ask the question in words or with chocolate letters.
- Flowers: Even just a simple gesture like flowers and words could work
Isabella Alfonso, a freshman at Saugus says, “Personally I would love just something simple like flowers and candy or even just starbucks, nothing too fancy” (Alfonso). Another freshman Victoria Ezparza said “I like grand gestures so to me a nice poster and some snacks is perfect” (Ezparza).
Overall Valentine’s Day is the perfect day to celebrate love and express feelings towards the people you consider special. Anything from a small gesture to a large gesture is a lovely way to celebrate the holiday.
