Back when you and your partner were dating, you probably stuck to the classic情人节plan:牌，鲜花，巧克力，以及两个晚餐。但现在你订婚了，是时候踩到一个陷波。毕竟，大多数夫妻都参与了一年或更短的人，这意味着这是您对Fiancé（E）的唯一情人节。所以，我们说非常常规！在这里有八种创造性的方式来庆祝这种充满爱的假期，然后绑在结时 - 并用你的配偶留住后面的情人节的日子！

For the Sentimental Couple

Use Valentine’s Day as a chance to remember why you’re getting married. Take a trip down memory lane (or a literal trip!) back to where it all began. Make a reservation at the restaurant where you first said “I love you,” rent a copy of the movie you saw on one of those first few dates or head back to the spot where the two of you got engaged.

For the Couple Saving for the Wedding

Skip the flowers, pour prosecco instead of champagne, and roast a chicken (just like Harry and Meghan did the night they got engaged!) instead of splurging on filet mignon. If you still want that special date-night feeling, wait a week or two! You can still head out for a night on the town when it’s not technically Valentine’s Day and will be able to avoid those inflated prices and crowds.
