Valentine's Day at home

Spending Valentine ’s Day at home can be the ultimate indulgence, with many restaurants overcrowded and serving inflexible set menus.

With February’s unpredictable weather, rather than braving the cold wouldn’t you prefer to be curled up with your loved one in front of a roaring fire with some champagne on ice? Bon Bons or strawberries add an element of fun, or for a new twist on champagne we’d recommend a champagne and pomegranate cocktail.

Creating a romantic atmosphere requires some considerations; lighting is one of the most vital. For us, candles are the answer – adding the perfect final touch to any romantic occasion. Choose and combine candleholders, vases, champagne glasses and an ice bucket for a really special setting.

Roses are a quintessential choice for a Valentine’s Day bouquet. For an elegant touch, select a tall bouquet that will create a real focal point. Consider scattering a couple of rose petals next to a champagne glass or a thoughtful gift for an added element of romance.
