Stuck at home for Valentine’s Day? Want to have a special meal, but don’t want to deal with the inevitable crowds at your favorite restaurants? Or just prefer cozying up to your special someone (or your cat) in your pajamas?
We see you — and raise you these options for celebrating Valentine’s Day from the comfort of your own home.
- Let love bloom | Order a bouquet from Flourish Flowers — or pick one up at Cultivate Coffee + Flowers — to set the tone for your date night.
- Cozy up with charcuterie | Snacking on a themed board from Amazing Graze will feel just as fancy as going out to dinner. Pro tip: Add some chocolate-covered strawberries for a sweet treat.
- Plan a movie night | Pick up a Valentine’s grab-and-go box from Proper Popcorn and watch your favorite rom com. If you’re looking for something super local, try one of these movies filmed in and around Knoxville.
- Exchange love letters | Snag some fancy stationery from The Happy Envelope to write a sweet note for your partner, kids, or best friends that you can exchange on the spot or seal for a later date.
- Make it a game night | Swing by Sci-Fi City and pick out a new board game to play together. Love is a battlefield, after all.
