If you’re a busy couple, you know that life can be a relentless hustle, leaving little room for meaningful connection with each other.
Our story? Just six months into our marriage, we were merely going through the motions, and the spark in our relationship was flickering FAST. A friend of ours recommended planning a date night every month to give us that quality time we were craving.
But we quickly realized that going “out to eat” was hardly the quality connection time either of us sought. The rushed outings, the designated driver dilemma, and the overpriced, over-processed meals, ugh!!
Then we thought, what if we incorporated what we loved about a “night out” at home? Things like getting ready to hit the town, sipping on pre-dinner cocktails, and listening to a vibey playlist while eating a simple yet elevated dinner.
Our Solution
We started with finding a new dinner recipe to cook together. Then, the next month, we’d added some extra ambiance with flowers, candles, and our very own date night playlist. Before too long, we were developing activities to help us connect on a deeper level.
These at-home date night experiences became the catalyst for strengthening our relationship. We nourished our bodies with a great meal while dreaming about our future and creating beautiful memories together.
Now, it’s our mission to help busy couples find meaningful ways to spend quality time with one another. We’d love to be your ally in reimagining an epic date night “in”!
