10 At Home Date Night Ideas from Petrocelli Homes- Serving Bay Area & Treasure Valley

We want to bring positivity, fun and light to these uncertain times, and help you beat boredom so you can ENJOY your home and community during this time.

Today we’re giving you 10 at home date night ideas that you can do with your spouse or significant other that will break up your current daily routines. Plus, staying in for date night can be just as much fun as going out!

Date Idea #1: The Coffeehouse

Light a candle, turn on some Jack Johnson radio, pour your mugs of coffee and sit down at the table together (sans TV). Pretend you’re out at a coffee shop and chat about things like favorite vacations you’ve been on, the first place you’re going for dinner as soon as this is over, and home features you want in your next house (that you’ve realized since being quarantined! ).

Date Idea #2: The “At Home” Drive in Experience

This one is perfect for those of you with kiddos (or not)! Pop some popcorn and grab some movie snacks, get your laptop and head for the car. Pull it into the driveway and watch a good, suspenseful movie on your laptop (or if you’re really fancy, maybe you have a projector you can use to project the movie onto the house). PS: Get comfy – don’t forget the blankets and pillows. This one feels most like you’re out on a date (and if you have kids, bring the monitor with you).

Date Idea #3: Game Night

Mix up your favorite cocktails – spicy margaritas, old fashioned, French 75’s, whatever sounds good – and get out the games. Whether you play an old school round of Battleship or race each other in Mario Kart, a little competition is always fun!

Date Idea #4: His & Hers Double Feature Movie Night

Uncork a bottle of the good wine you’ve been saving for a special occasion (this IS a special occasion)! You pick a movie the other has never seen, then they pick a movie you’ve never seen and watch them back to back! OR you can each pick your favorite movie of all time. Don’t forget to turn your couch into a SUPER couch! Get all the pillows and blankets and get SUPER comfy!

Date Idea #5: Cooking Class

Whip out your aprons, get out your fanciest wine glasses and get cooking! Pick a favorite recipe to create, do a wine tasting with a few smaller dishes or try a brand new recipe you find on Pinterest. Don’t forget to actually eat dinner at the dining room table with candles, wine and some background music. ALEXA: Play Frank Sinatra Radio on Pandora

Date Idea #6: Virtual Vacation

Plan your dream vacation. Where would you go? Look up hotels, restaurants, things to do and plan out the vacation as if you were going. Look at pictures and plan an itinerary! Maybe when this is over you can actually go!

Date Idea #7: Pack a Picnic for the Backyard

Go on a nice, long hike and when you get back, lay out a blanket and have a picnic in the backyard. Pre-make some yummy sandwiches, your favorite chips, and chocolate chip cookies for dessert! Or make it fancy with a variety of cheeses, meats, grapes and champagne.

Date Idea #8: Netflix & Takeout

Okay, maybe this one isn’t that “creative” but it’s always fun! Order takeout from a local restaurant offering curbside pickup and binge watch a new Netflix show OR a classic like The Office.

Date Idea #9: Painting & Pizza

Time to spruce up a room in the house or ready for a change? Relive the day you moved in! Have pizza delivered, drink wine out of plastic cups and get to painting that accent wall in the Master bedroom or freshening up the laundry room that’s looking a little dreary. Blast your favorite Spotify playlist and talk about when you bought your house and reminisce about how excited you were to tackle home projects. What projects have you tackled? How long have you lived there? What memories have you made since moving in?

Date Idea #10: Go For a Drive

Pick a nice, sunny day to go for a drive. Pick up coffee to go from a local spot offering curbside takeout. Drive out to a scenic spot, explore a new city, or drive through a place that brings back memories! Pack a lunch to go, play some music and have fun!
