Christine:
Being an event planner, I start planning for holidays MONTHS OUT. A few of my favorite things...

1) Purchase matching Valentine outfits and a sweet book for my twin nieces and ship on Feb 1st!

2) Buy Valentine's for the neighbor kids and kiddos in my son's class for him to give (this year is chocolate covered pretzels and sweet little cards)

3) I get a BIG HEART for my parents from the Loveland Rotary  (I make it a scavenger hunt) Look for "In love with you since '72 D+N" over by Lake Loveland!

4) I get a couple cards for my husband - one to hide in his work bag so he finds a little surprise, and another 1 or 2 to give at other times. I also gift him a sweet treat of some sort.

5) My Big Day sends out Valentine's to many of our clients and partners. We create them, stamp them, and send them out through the Valentine Re-Mailing Program in early February!

6) I send out Valentine's to family members through the Valentine Re-Mailing Program, and often send a handful of the Official Loveland Valentine's Cards that you can buy around the city.

7) My husband and I either cook a nice dinner at home, or go out to a local restaurant. A few of our favorites:  Slate Italian Eatery, Starlight Dessert Bar, Taste Local, Fresh Plate Eatery, Bann Thai, the Himalayan Bistro, or Hearth.

8) Planning the Valentine's Day Group Wedding of course!

Kathy:
Valentine's Day has never been a big holiday for us to celebrate but it always gives us a reason to do a date night.  We like to find a spot that is not a normal place for us or for others so we look for a hole in the wall place that is unique and cozy.  This way we stay away from the crowds and we can have some quality time together.  Celebrating each other and our love is something we try to do as often as we can.  We love to stay connected and continue to build our relationship as we grow old together.  We try to strengthen our marriage by remembering this scripture:

1 Corinthians 13:4-7
4Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud 5or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. 6It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. 7Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.

Katie:
Plan in advance... I love to make reservations at the Loveland Chophouse (4th Street) and get a nice steak dinner and fancy wine!

Randi:
My favorite way is to make a movie fort at home and watch old classics. We fill the fort with snacks and chocolates and roses. Add some cocoa and my loving partner. 

We are thrilled to announce that tickets are on sale for our 2018 Valentine's Day Wedding & Vow Renewal Ceremony in Loveland, CO - The Sweetheart City!

Todd Harding will be officiating again. He did such a wonderful job making our ceremony truly memorable and a special occasion for all who participated.
