Holiday inspired dates for you and your partner

Written Ymariam Bez | Graphic by Juana Garcia

The holidays are filled with romance and joyful cheer. What’s not to love about a perfect cold and crisp day— where trees are wrapped up in twinkly lights, and Christmas music and movies are played on repeat?

Whether you celebrate Christmas or not, holiday inspired dates make this time of year feel extra special and memorable with your partner. The lists of things to do are endless— cozying up to a fire and watching movies, renting a cabin, building gingerbread houses, or even ice skating.

Ice Skating is a classic date idea perfect for the holiday season. Granted they’re yearlong going the extra mile and finding one outdoors under the lights and stars will make this date night unforgettable.

If you’re looking for something more low-key, then a night indoors at home baking and assembling a gingerbread house is the date for you. Imagine being elbow deep in cookie dough and icing; constructing your sugary, delicious cookie mansion alongside your significant other.

The holidays are also the time to start and create your own traditions that you will carry for years to come as your relationship blossoms and grows. Having this tradition amongst the two of you will strengthen your bond, and as times around the holiday bear stress, having this tradition to look forward to, will make it all worthwhile. The holidays are a time to appreciate your loved ones and create memories that will last a lifetime.
