Date Night Done Right: Creative Ideas for LGBTQ+ Couples

Having the company of someone who understands you and loves you for the person you are is something that most humans look forward to. If you’re a queer person and have already found that special someone and would like to make them feel appreciated and loved but don’t know what to do, we’re here to help.

Let’s take a look at some fun date night ideas you can take into account to enjoy along with your partner., be it for a special occasion or just because you feel like showing them how much you love them more intricately.

  • A Romantic Night at Home

You don’t have to leave your house to be able to make your partner feel special. You can surprise them with a nice dinner, maybe some wine or champagne, and enjoy a lovely night-in followed by a nice movie. All you have to do is curl up together on the sofa and cuddle while watching a movie. It doesn’t have to be a queer-themed movie – you can adjust it to the preferences of both of you or maybe make the hunt for a good piece of media part of the fun.

  • Making Dinner Together

It’s also a good idea to involve your partner in every step of the process so that you can spend more time with them. If you already know what you want to make for dinner, all you have to do is invite them to join you in the kitchen and spend some wholesome quality time together before you can enjoy a nice meal. Cooking together can be an intimate and fun way to pass the time. You can make it even extra special if you ask your partner about a particular dish or recipe they might want to try – or perhaps make something entirely new and discover the taste of something new together. 

  • Attend a Drag Show 

Drag queens are pretty much everywhere, including your community. If you or your partner love RuPaul’s Drag Race, maybe attending a Richmond pride bar crawl​ where they hold drag shows might be a fun way to spend your night together. Local drag queens know how to put on a good show for their audience. It can be a different form of entertainment. Make sure to tip the queens if you can – it takes a lot of effort and time to look like that and also put on a show for hundreds of people every night.

  • Organize a Spa Night

If you’re on a budget but would still like to be able to enjoy what spas have to offer, then holding a spa night at home might be a great idea to help you and your partner wind off and relax for a bit. If you have a bathtub at home, you already have something in your favor. You can purchase an all-in-one spa kit and make the most of it along with your partner. It can be an excellent way of being physically intimate and helping each other relax while enjoying the company of your significant other. 

  • Make a Vision Board Together 

Some couples have been together for a long time, while others might have already decided that they want their relationship to be long-term. If that’s your case, you can envision your goals and make them feel a bit more approachable if you create a vision board together. Not only can it be a fun way to have a date night, but it can also help you both discover what you want your relationship to be like in the long run, strengthening the bond you both have.
