Idea 1: Go on a ski adventure

Planning on taking your loved one up to the mountains? Make sure she has everything she needs for the cold-weather season, including waterproof snow boots and a wool sweater.

Don't forget about capturing all the action

Affix a GoPro to her helmet and you're good to go. She'll love being able to replay the weekend with you while you're both sipping hot tea in the ski lodge.

And, of course, she'll need goggles

While sunglasses are a great staple for everyday outdoor activity, goggles are what she really needs when hitting the slopes. Make sure she has protective eyewear that traps in heat and keeps her face warm for your adventure.

Idea 2: Take a baking class together

Sign up for a cooking class together and make something special, like a chocolate cake. Then, surprise her with the necessary tools, like a mixer and cooking scale, so you both can re-create the dish at home.

Then be sure to eat up

Make it extra romantic by feeding the finished product to one another.

Idea 3: Make your dinner date extra special

Take her to your favorite neighborhood restaurant and surprise her with a bouquet of freshly cut red roses.

Small gift ideas go a long way

If you want to show up with something in addition to flowers, consider elevating her gadget game with a playful case for her iPhone.

Have fun with the flowers, too

What good is a dramatic bouquet if you don't indulge in it's extravagance? Yes, they will look beautiful at home in a vase, but be sure to take a photo or two with them while you're at dinner.
