How to Make Your At Home Valentine’s Day Romantic as Ever
Love is in the air this February! And with so many delicious recipes on TikTok and Instagram, it makes a lot of sense to enjoy the holiday at home. Let’s talk about ways to spice up your at-home Valentine’s Day, with AJA wines!
On a personal note, this month marks one year of being engaged to the love of my life, only a few more months until we’re married! So here are some tips on how to make your love month extra special.
1) Set a Table
There’s something so romantic about a candlelit dinner at home. Adding some romantic flowers, like red roses, phalaenopsis, and carnations, can really make a table look beautiful. This table was styled by Heather Greenbaum with decor from CB Lifestyle, by Carolyn Bender, located in Brentwood, Los Angeles. You can grab beautiful candlestick holders, glassware, dinnerware, and a tablecloth alongside flowers from your local florist or supermarket to make your evening feel special.
2) Wine Pairings with a Home-Cooked Dinner
Make the evening feel special by pairing your dinner with wine. Whether it’s boxed pizza or a home-cooked roast, we have tons of great options here at AJA Vineyards! Visit our shop to find wines you’ll love.
3) Intimate Activities
Find ways to explore intimacy with your partner. Whether it’s a simple card game to get to know each other even better, or taking a soothing bath with scented candles, any opportunity to spend time together away from distractions like phones is the best way to find happiness in your relationship.
4) Home Wine Tasting
Wine and romance have long been the best of friends, specifically red wines. Grab three of your favorite wines and taste them together at home. Book a tasting with us, or just pick your favorites from the shop. At AJA, we would recommend tasting through some of our estate wines to really expand your palate.
5) Cuddle Up with a Romantic Movie and a Bottle of Wine
Grab your favorite popcorn, your coziest blanket, favorite candles, and a bottle of your favorite AJA wine. Plop yourself down on the couch with your favorite snacks, like barbecue chips, popcorn, and M&M’s, alongside a large glass of our AJA Syrah. It will make for the most seamlessly perfect evening, relaxing and being with your partner.
We hope these ideas give you the best ways to enjoy our wines with your partner at home this Valentine’s Day.
Cheers,
Amanda & the AJA Vineyards Team
