Preparing yourself for a romantic evening at home. Ideas for romantic gifts for a guy - from bright emotions to banal trifles

Many of us at least once thought about how to surprise a loved one and create an exceptional evening for two. What outfits to choose, what dishes to cook, what wine to buy and how to create a unique atmosphere?

You can, of course, book a table in a restaurant and limit yourself to the choice of the proposed menu. You can in addition to this buy a ticket to the sauna or a double massage session. Then you won't have to worry about anything other than your appearance.

But what if you decide to arrange a romantic dinner and entertainment program on your own? Well, great idea! The online magazine "Korolevnam.ru" will be happy to help you with this!

How to arrange a romantic dinner?

Location

First, decide on the room where you will regale your loved one. This may be the kitchen itself, but you can serve dinner in any other room. Yes, even in the bathroom, if you plan to stay in it further after a snack. The main thing is to create an intimate atmosphere.

romantic atmosphere

To make a romantic dinner, curtain the windows, stock up on candles. Both ordinary ones in beautiful candlesticks and “pills” (penny candles in a tin “case”) will do.

Look at the floating candles. They look great on a romantic table in an original vase of water or an unusual plate.

You can even place such candles in glasses of water *wink*

By the way, the above-mentioned “pills” can also be placed in glasses. And if you turn the glasses upside down, place our “pills” under them, and put an ornament to your taste on the leg, it will turn out to be extremely unusual and interesting. It all depends on your imagination.

A string of pearls casually thrown on the table or a scattering of rose petals will help create the atmosphere of a romantic dinner...

Or you can simply put a bouquet in a beautiful vase, which your loved one will surely present to you as a traditional present. Quiet relaxing music will be a great addition.

It is better not to rely on your favorite radio station, and not be too lazy and burn a disc with the appropriate tracks.

Important nuances

By the way, we will not dwell much on this point, but we will make a small note that cleanliness and tidiness are practically the most important attributes. Agree that a dirty floor, dust on the table and stained glasses do not look very romantic.

Therefore, take care of the cleanliness of the room and the accessories used. Based on the above, it is safe to say that weekdays, passing in fatigue and stress, are not the best days for such a dinner.

Let it be a day off. And you will prepare well and cook a romantic dinner for two, and your loved one will be full of strength and energy.

It is important to understand that a romantic dinner is not a dinner party. Heavy perfumes, brocade and velvet are not needed (even as a tablecloth), and kilogram biscuit cakes and fatty cabbage soup have no place at all at your romantic dinner. You want the evening to continue, don't you? *wink*

Therefore, think over the dinner menu in advance.

What to cook for a romantic dinner for two?

Of course, strawberries, whipped cream and chocolate came to your mind without us. That's right, these products are included in the list of natural aphrodisiacs.

This also includes bananas, mangoes, avocados, coffee, cardamom, celery, parsley, nuts, shrimp, oysters, mussels.

Garlic is also said to have energizing properties, but for obvious reasons, we don't recommend eating it during a romantic dinner.

In short, we will give you some easy and at the same time delicious recipes. We hope they will help you decide what to cook for a romantic dinner.

The most important thing to remember is that you should never overeat at a romantic dinner.

Otherwise, then just lie sideways on the couch to watch TV. And the opportunity to show off stunning sexy lingerie will be delayed until the next time *pardon*

Therefore, portions should be modest, and the table should not burst from the abundance of dishes on it. Limit yourself to salad and dessert, or salad and main course, or main course and dessert.

Although, if the portions are really small, then you can cook all three dishes. In general, everything is up to your taste and creative discretion.


Consider also the taste preferences of your loved one and the absence of an allergy to any product you are planning. Otherwise, later you will “fill in” his erogenous zones in the stomach with antihistamines ...

After dinner…

And make sure your loved one doesn't fall asleep *wink* . Think over the further program in advance: it can be a night walk under the stars with a bottle of wine, a relaxing massage or a bath, or maybe even a striptease performed by you (you can even do it together) or play the now fashionable forfeits.

The main thing is that everything flows in the direction you need.

Oh yes, almost forgot! In no case do not whine to your man this evening about problems, worries, about an unnailed shelf and about unbought bread. We can talk about this tomorrow.

And after dinner, do not frantically run to the sink in order to wash all the dirty dishes: she will also wait. You have more pleasant and important things to do tonight.

Bon appetit and have fun!

Of course, this is a candlelit dinner! Therefore, it is worth stocking up on this simple accessory. You can choose from plain or scented candles. The latter, depending on the smell, will fill the room with a relaxing or exciting aroma. Grapefruit, neroli, sage will help to cheer up your man after a tiring day, and rose, lavender will help relieve stress. For this, incense sticks and essential oil have also been invented. It is better to light candles or incense sticks in advance, for example, 20 minutes before the arrival of a loved one, so that the aroma has time to spread throughout the house. Essential oil gives this effect immediately.

What to cook for a romantic dinner?

You should answer this question to yourself even in the supermarket, so that everything, down to the smallest detail, like beautiful skewers for snacks, is definitely found! First, look into the fruit section and choose the most famous aphrodisiacs: strawberries, bananas, pineapples, avocados, grapes. In the confectionery, grab cream (both whipped and regular) - it will definitely come in handy! To make dinner last longer, and communication does not end in strong intoxication, opt for champagne or light semi-sweet or dry wines. After them, the mood will rise both for you and for your chosen one. Seafood, meat and fresh vegetables are a must in your grocery basket.

Romantic Dinner Recipes

In order for the evening to take place, and your loved one to be full of more than just love, you definitely need to prepare several dishes, and there should not be too many of them: leave space on the table for rose petals and vases with floating candles. A meat dish should not be heavy and greasy so that your loved one does not think about sleeping after a hearty "lunch" (in our case, dinner). So, let's start preparing a romantic dinner for your loved one!

We suggest starting with hot: while it is cooking, you can make salad and snacks. Chicken with honey sauce will not leave heaviness in the stomach, but at the same time will amaze your chosen one with its original taste. Rub the chilled breast with salt and pepper and fry in vegetable oil on both sides, it will take no more than 10 minutes. In the juice from the chicken, which will remain in the pan, pour a little apple cider vinegar, heat it up, and then add a couple of tablespoons of liquid honey and half a glass of water. 5 minutes is enough for the sauce to thicken properly. The chicken can be cut into portions and poured with sauce, and then garnished with a sprig of parsley (by the way, a well-known aphrodisiac) and halves of cherry tomatoes.

Ideas for a romantic dinner are the perfect complement to hearty seafood salads. So, for starters - a salad with shrimp. For three minutes, fry finely chopped tomatoes and green bell pepper in a pan, add 300 g of shrimp and wait another 3-5 minutes. Sprinkle cilantro and dill, salt and pepper on top. Salad ready! You can eat both warm and cold - in any form it will be delicious. The second option is a Norwegian salmon salad. Cut vegetables: tomatoes into slices, cucumbers into slices, and red bell pepper into strips. Mix vegetables with parsley, dill or Chinese salad, put on a plate, and roll a piece of salmon on top into an elegant roll. Lemon slices are suitable as a decoration.

And now it's the turn of snacks to replenish your piggy bank of simple and festive recipes for a special dinner. The most delicious and simple are canapés with cheese: Brie cheese and grapes; tilsiter (or whichever you prefer), a couple of olives and a parsley leaf; two types of cheese separated by cherry tomatoes and olives.

The final chords are taken not only by music (which should be pleasant and relaxing at the beginning and exciting at the end of the dinner), but also by desserts. It is very easy to prepare traditional strawberries with cream: beat 30% fat cream fresh from the refrigerator with a blender, adding powdered sugar at the rate of 1 teaspoon per 100 g of cream. Put the thickened cream in a beautiful bowl or glass, then a layer of strawberries, again cream. Ready! And put the fruit beautifully on a plate, you can in the form of a heart. And here you can play: blindfold your beloved and, having dipped the fruit in cream, ask him to guess what it is.

Close your eyes and imagine - how do you figuratively see a romantic dinner for your beloved man? These are burning candles on the table, red wine poured into glasses, gourmet dishes, soft-sounding music, and you and him are hand in hand, talking about love. So right? Standard No. 1. This standard will be discussed in the article in the first place, but other options will also be considered.

Yes, exactly the one where the candles and glasses are. But how to organize it so that the pleasant pastime of the evening flows into a night of violent sex? Everything must be taken into account - lighting, table setting and an impeccable menu. Even music and aromas play an important role. And, of course, how will you look like if you yourself invited your loved one to visit you. By the way, for your own husband, sometimes at home you need to make such evenings with a surprise to refresh your feelings - simple snacks with a “duty” cutlet get bored.

Menu planning

Keep in mind that dinner should not consist of high-calorie dishes so that there is no glut. On a full stomach, there is no desire to make love and just wants to sleep. This also applies to alcohol, if you go overboard.

By the way, if alcoholic drinks are supposed to be served - what to serve:

    White wine pairs well with fish and seafood, and is best when dry.

    Red wine is served with meat dishes (again, "dryer" is the most successful choice).

    Champagne - fruit and chocolate are suitable for the table.

    Cognac - lemon slices sprinkled with instant coffee and sugar, meat, cheese and fish cuts as an appetizer.

    Cocktails are in perfect harmony with fruit salads and canapes.

It is clear that vodka and beer are not suitable for a standard romantic dinner. If alcohol is canceled, then this is also not bad.




It's great if you can cook food at home with your own hands, but in a pinch, you can order complex dishes in a restaurant, and even cut it yourself. It is important that there is not an abundance on the table - a couple of light salads in small salad bowls, cutting, fruit for dessert and the main focus - on an exquisite hot dish, given the tastes of your invited boyfriend.

    Meat dishes should be from lean meat (tenderloin, chicken breast, rabbit). As options: chops, "meat in French", roast in pots.

    Fish and seafood: cod, salmon, hake - fried or baked in the oven, seafood cocktails with rice - for example, shrimp.

    Baked vegetables, if a guy appreciates vegetarianism, such attention will be a surprise for him.

    As a side dish, you can make potatoes in different versions, as well as boiled rice.

    Dessert is light and quite a bit. Not oversaturated with calories, like a cake: you can get carried away with sweets and goodbye figure and buzz from the evening. A good idea is just fruit or, for example, jelly ice cream or sorbet.




Table setting

Even at home, table setting must be impeccably refined, like in a restaurant, if you want to make a real surprise for your man. So, all the nuances:

    The table itself should not be large and wide, as at feasts in the Middle Ages. The tabletop should be small enough to freely accommodate all the dishes and a candlestick. The smaller it is, the more intimate the situation will be when you can sit next to a man and hold hands.

    Tablecloth - preferably plain, without "screaming" and clumsy patterns that steal the beauty of dishes. White, red, blue, green - everything is in the subject. For decoration, you can put napkins in the form of hearts on it or sprinkle with rose petals.

    Candlestick - can be three-horned, or two, separately for thin and long candles. It is advisable not to put candle-tablets on the table: it is a fire hazard. In extreme cases, protect them with special cups and remove them from dishes.

    Plates for dishes are thin and preferably porcelain. Precisely - beautiful: you can spend money on two plates for an evening with a surprise for your beloved man. The knife is placed with right side, fork - on the left. Crystal is suitable for salad bowls.

    Glasses for drinks. Tall on a thin leg. For champagne - a narrow bowl, for white wine - medium, for red - wide. For cognac it is also wide, but the glass itself is on a short leg.

    In addition to paper napkins, it is advisable to put a linen napkin with a special ring on a plate before dinner, or just fold it figuredly.




Lighting

Of course, candles are the most important. There are many candles that stand not only on the table, but also around it. The most important thing is to arrange them so that the burning flame does not touch any objects standing nearby, and the candles themselves are stable. You can put them near the mirror - thanks to the reflection, the candles will seem larger. By the way, you need to light them right before the arrival of your beloved man to get a real surprise.

If the candles are only on the table, then this is not enough. All the same, you need a muffled light - at least from a sconce or "night lamps". But the main thing is no daylight or a switched on chandelier on the ceiling with several horns. All the mystery of a romantic evening will be broken by bright light.




Musical accompaniment

Sitting and talking in absolute silence is somehow sad. Turning on the TV for the background is a distraction, especially for a man. Even if an incomprehensible buzzing is heard from the TV speakers, the flickering on the screen will still involuntarily attract attention.

Music is what saves you. It is necessary to arrange everything so that only you are the main object of attention. It is necessary to choose music not even according to preferences. For example, your loved one loves rock, but in such an environment, it will be inappropriate. Or do you like whiny girlish pop music, and it will enrage a man. So choose neutral music - best of all, "instrumental" without songs, light and romantic, which sounds very quiet.




How to dress for a romantic dinner

Of course - stunning as never before, to make a surprise for your loved one. Impeccable hair and manicure - in the first place. Before the meeting, you need to take a shower with fragrant perfume and a drop of perfume behind your ears - that's enough. By the way, about smells - fragrant candles and incense sticks should not be placed around the room: everywhere you should smell like you. And, of course, delicious food.

Sexy lingerie is what you need, it’s clear how such romantic evenings end. And lace panties and a bra will be another surprise for your lover. A little jewelry, beautiful stilettos and a chic evening dress - and we put an end to this. Just don’t think of changing into a home dressing gown for convenience during an intimate party - you’ll ruin everything.




How to behave during dinner

A romantic dinner for a lover is held not only to feed him deliciously, but also, of course, to relax and seduce. Therefore, you will have to work as a toastmaster for your guest - to entertain with conversations.

It's good if you know each other long enough, and that's how you have no end. Another thing is when you are still shy of each other, and such an evening is incredibly stressful for you. Well, like the first date at Kalugina's house with Novoseltsev in the movie Office Romance.

In any case, there are a number of topics to avoid:

  • about their problems, and with all the ensuing consequences;
  • about politics, work and money difficulties;
  • about health complaints;
  • about something sad and sad.




Romantic dinner out

By the way, really, why can a romantic dinner be arranged only at home? There are other options.

On holiday

You are relaxing with your loved one somewhere on the sea. The program with excursions got bored, wallowing on the beach was also rather tired. He does not expect any surprises from you, and you: both, and set the table in the evening on the balcony of the hotel or somewhere on the beach in the evening, having agreed with the owner of the coastal cafe.

At the restaurant

You yourself invite him to a restaurant. For example, your loved one forgot the anniversary of your acquaintance, but you are not offended, and in this way you surprise him. He will be embarrassed, of course, but the evening is still not spoiled.

Outdoors

Let's say your lover is a fan of fishing. He does not like to take you with him - you do not know what to do while he goes somewhere in the wilds of the lake, you constantly call him to eat sandwiches with tea from a thermos in order to somehow attract his attention. And you ask him for evening fishing with an overnight stay in a tent. And most, instead of a standard snack, you need to cook dishes unusual for a picnic. You will have something to do: while he is away, set a chic table in nature in the evening, and then hold an Open Air party for two with him. Believe me, it's very cool!




Conclusion

If it is you, and not him, who arranges a romantic dinner, then it will be 1:0 in your favor. Without expecting something like this, your loved one will be very surprised at your "trick". And be sure, now he himself will want to thank you with a similar surprise or some kind of gift. And, perhaps, this is the first step towards marriage, if you really want to see your beloved as your spouse.

The relationship of two lovers is always full of romance. And where, if not during a romantic evening, is it best to express your feelings, confess your love, and even, maybe, make a marriage proposal!

Today I will share with you tips on how to make a romantic evening unique and unforgettable. First of all, they are intended for men who are thinking about how to arrange a romantic evening for a girl.

Do you need a reason?

Imagine that you really want to surprise and please your chosen one or chosen one, and you even know how to do it, but you can’t think of a reason. It often happens that way!

In fact, lovers do not have to wait for some date or reason - a romantic evening is already a holiday in itself!

Romantic Friday

First, decide what you would like to arrange: a romantic evening or a nightly dinner? Or maybe the time for lunch or breakfast is exactly what you need?

Traditionally, lovers choose dinner, because the evening atmosphere is conducive to relaxation, measuredness and romance.

Think how good Friday or Saturday evenings are - no need to rush anywhere tomorrow and you can sleep peacefully later!

Suite, roof and grandma's attic

Where can you arrange a romantic evening and how to make it unforgettable?

  • You might think about having dinner at a nice restaurant.
    Only it is better to go there for reconnaissance in advance in order to avoid embarrassment with the menu, pricing policy of the establishment and musical accompaniment.
  • I also propose to consider the option of a date in the country, where nature itself will be your ally.
  • A deluxe hotel room can also give the evening a new touch.
    After all, everything is familiar at home: from the atmosphere to the smells!
  • Thrill-seekers, perhaps, will be happy to meet on the roof of a city high-rise building or in the attic of a grandmother's village house.
  • And nature lovers will remember for a long time a forest clearing with a self-assembled tablecloth.

But if you are an adherent of a traditional romantic evening for two at home, then there are options for a romantic retreat:

  • Living room
  • Kitchen
  • Bedroom
  • Bath

The main thing here is that the place of a romantic meeting is cozy and conducive to love and tenderness.

When preparing for a date, it is necessary to think through the atmosphere, lighting, musical accompaniment and, in fact, the dinner itself to the smallest detail.

What helps create a romantic mood?

Light, color and flowers

Let the lighting be calm and slightly muffled. After all, soft twilight always creates the right mood.

Only don't say candles are banal! A lot of candles - this is, for sure, bad taste.

But there is another way to play with light and shadows - choose red and blue light bulbs. I'm sure it will work out well!

Dishes and tablecloths choose a calm solid color.

Avoid bright, flashy colors even if you really like them. You will find a worthy use and reason for them later.

Of course, every young man or man in love will think about flowers.

Only do not give a huge bouquet this evening - it will be disharmonious with the tenderness of the situation. It is better to choose a small but original composition.

Such flowers will surely please and be remembered!

You can include a fresh bouquet in the design of the table.

Music

Music is perhaps the main element of a romantic date.

Light, quiet compositions will not distract from a pleasant conversation, but will create the right atmosphere for the evening.

I advise you to prepare two different playlists:

  • Some melodies will accompany your couple during the meal. And such music should be exclusively background.
  • Others will bring the couple together in a dance. Here, rely on your taste.

But when choosing, be sure to consider the tastes and preferences of a loved one. Imagine how excited the girl will react when she hears familiar melodies!

If you do not have enough time to prepare a personal playlist, use the Internet: it is not difficult to find a station that transmits romantic music online.

romantic table

Serving

Think carefully about your table decor.

If the romantic party is themed, then the tablecloth and dishes should also match the moment.

But do not forget the rule: during the meal nothing on the table should prevent you from seeing each other and communicate freely.

Treat or feed?

My next piece of advice applies, rather, to the beautiful half. Many people love and know how to cook delicious food. And this is good!

But when preparing for a romantic dinner, try to keep the golden mean: calculate your strengths and capabilities so that you don’t look tired and tortured by the evening.

Now let's move on to the dishes.

Remember that food for a romantic meeting should be:

  • light,
  • low fat
  • and contain less flour.

Because after an overly satisfying meal, you no longer want intimate conversations, and even more so dancing. You will most likely be drawn to the sofa to watch TV and just sleep.

Our task is different - only to treat, and not to feed the guest or guest to satiety. Well, if you are arranging an evening for your wife or husband to refresh your relationship, then it will be all the more unreasonable to reduce everything to a banal meal.

Menu ideas for a romantic evening

  • Prepare simple but original salads with squid, shrimps, meat, greens.
    Let them be in edible tartlets - convenient, beautiful and tasty.
  • Meat and more meat!
    A man is a man for that, in order to rejoice in a childish way with stuffed chicken or fried pork. But, don't forget that we are planning only a light evening snack.

So let there be meat! Only in the form of juliennes, gravies or thinly sliced ​​\u200b\u200bplates for sandwiches with herbs.

Although you can get out of the situation in another way: I suggest baking a good piece of pork or beef in the oven, and then do whatever you want with it: pieces, rolls with the same convenient skewers, etc.

The most comfortable food for a romantic table - canapés on skewers or mini-sandwiches. Decorate them in the form of hearts or boats - that's romance for you.

There are a great many canapes: with meat, cheese, herbs, vegetables, fruits, etc.

Buffet dishes are suitable for a light romantic menu. We are offering to you .

  • Sweet table for a sweet relationship - fruits, chocolate, sweets and champagne.
  • A light dessert - fruit jelly and strawberries with whipped cream - perfect for a romantic evening.
  • If you are planning to keep the meeting going for as long as possible, then aphrodisiacs will help with this: coconut, dates, avocados, vanilla, bananas, strawberries, shrimp, etc.

Beverages

Choose light drinks: champagne, delicate liquor or weak wine, low-alcohol cocktails.

Strong drinks are strong enough to spoil the charm of a romantic meeting.

Don't forget to find out in advance your partner's preferences in both food and drinks.

A few additional tips for a man who decides to have a romantic evening:

  • If you don’t know how to cook, order light snacks in a restaurant.
  • A bouquet is perhaps the most essential attribute of the evening.
  • Do you want to surprise? Flower petals on the table and in the room - this will touch the female soul.

But for this it is not necessary to buy armfuls of roses or tulips. Many flower shops sell petals from beginning to fade roses. It is quite inexpensive, but the effect will be sure!

And one more time about flowers.

What is the best way to invite a girl on a romantic date? You can just call...

But I advise you to do this: buy a small, but very original bouquet or a bouquet-basket, and then send flowers by messenger to your beloved.

Don't forget to include an invitation note!

I heard that some young people, inviting them to a romantic evening, meet their chosen one at the entrance, then blindfold them and only in the apartment surprise with an unusual entourage.

Option? I think yes. Only not everyone is able to appreciate such an extreme!

So experiment very carefully.

If the couple is already several years old

Even if you've been together long enough, romantic evenings shouldn't be a thing of the past at all.

After all, it is they who will give here a spark of love and romance, which absolutely everyone needs.

You can remember some memorable day of your relationship and organize a small thematic holiday for yourself: the day of acquaintance, the day of the first kiss ...

At the forefront is mutual joy!

Each couple will choose the most suitable option for a romantic evening.

During the day, a light dinner and watching an exciting movie will suffice, others will enjoy a bath for two with relaxing music.

There will be those who will come up with something new: remember about your grandmother's attic and roof?

No matter where and what you come up with for a romantic evening. The main thing is that the evening turned out to be festive, and you have the most pleasant sensations from it.

And here's an hour of romantic music, which is enough for the whole dinner.

We are so accustomed to hurrying somewhere that sometimes we forget that our people live next to us. the closest people. Maybe we should stop for a moment and ask ourselves how long ago I arranged a romantic evening for a loved one, when was the last time we dined by candlelight, chatted, laughed, danced?

Perhaps, many people know the standard scenario according to which lovers from all over the world are used to arranging a romantic evening for a loved one - dinner, wine, candles, pleasant music, dance, kisses, tender words. This is a classic and will never let you down.

Where to start if you decide to spend a romantic evening at home?

  1. Interior. You can turn your apartment into a cozy love nest where there will be room for just the two of you. Just imagine how your soul mate, without knowing anything, comes home after work, and there she is waiting incredible atmosphere of love and romance. A beautifully set table, a luxuriously made bed, candles are placed around, your joint photos in which you are happy, the heady aroma of oriental spices is in the air. Believe me, your efforts will bring wonderful results in the form of tenderness, gratitude and reciprocal love.
  2. Dinner. Such a surprise will be pleasant for both men and women. To surprise your soul mate, it is not necessary to be a skilled culinary specialist. On the contrary, you should not cook very complex and high-calorie dishes. Dinner should be easy because you have the whole night ahead of you. For a romantic dinner, salad, seafood, a light dessert, fruit, chocolate and, of course, wine are suitable. The heart of your soul mate will be overwhelmed with joyful emotions just from how crystal flickers in soft diffused light, how sweet wine pleasantly burns the whole body, and the spirit is captured by a feeling of incredible happiness.
  3. Music. The musical accompaniment of the evening should be calm, romantic. If your couple has a favorite slow song, you can listen to it together, plunging into a pleasant river of memories. Excellent if you own some musical instrument and can dedicate to your soul mate song in own performance.
  4. Shall we dance? Another attribute of a romantic evening will be a slow dance. Moreover, it can be both a joint dance and a specially prepared striptease. Many women are delighted that a man learned to dance just for them.

What else to please your beloved man and girl?

If the standard program of a romantic evening seems too banal to you, you can show your imagination and come up with your own. your own romantic adventure. It may be related to your acquaintance or first date.

For example, try to recreate the atmosphere of your first date together, play an erotic game, or fantasize about long-distance relationships.

For example, you can play "romantic twister" with your loved one, prepare a bath with rose petals or master the skills of erotic massage.
