How To Create The Perfect Valentine’s Setting With Your Roof Lantern

With just a few days to go, Valentine’s day is well on the way!

Whether your plan is to celebrate this weekend, or have a romantic evening after work on Monday, your roof lantern can create the perfect setting for you and your beau! We all know that it’s those heartfelt gestures mean the most and what better way to set the scene than under a sky full of stars? Here are Aliwood’s top ways to create the perfect romantic setting this Valentine’s day.

A Bright Breakfast to Start the Day

You know what they say, breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Why not treat your other half to a delicious breakfast under your roof lantern. Whether it’s pancakes and a Bailey’s hot chocolate or avocado and poached eggs with a side of mimosa’s… take some time out together to enjoy a little luxury underneath the fresh February morning dew! Don’t forget to decorate the table with lovely extras, like scented candles and fresh flowers!

The Home Spa

Think outside the box this Valentine’s day. Instead of running up to the shower after breakfast, set up a ‘home spa’! It’s something different for you both to enjoy and it’s incredibly easy to create. Your significant other will be more than thrilled with this kind gesture.

Again, use your roof skylight to create an ambient, fresh setting. You’ll be greeted with natural light cascading into the room, with scenes of the beautiful outdoors around you. Light some scented candles and if you have any aromatherapy oils, this will certainly add to the restful experience. Get your facemasks on, open a little more prosecco and heat up the mini foot spa for a well-deserved pedicure. Your ‘spa break’ will have you both in relaxation mode in no time!

Romantic Candlelit Dinner

If there is a time to unleash your inner Gino D’Acampo, Valentine’s is the day! The effort of a home cooked three course dinner over dining in a restaurant wins a million times over. Treat this as the ultimate date night. Get dressed up, light some dinner candles and put on your favourite playlist. Lay the table, complete with some cute heart sequins to catch the light of the stars under your roof skylight.

If you’re struggling for inspiration, you could replicate a dish that means something to you both – maybe something from your favourite restaurant or a take on a dish from your first holiday together. Turn the evening into a fun-filled cooking class and have fun make a Thai green curry, or even something as simple and yummy as home-made pizza! Your roof lantern will create the most romantic atmosphere as you indulge under the stars.

Cosy Film Night

If all that food has tired you out, why not cosy up under the starlight of your roof skylight and enjoy a film night, complete with hot chocolate, gooey brownies and ice cream? (Pudding definitely goes to a different place than the main course, right?) Enjoy a romantic film or two together; get cosied up in your pyjamas and grab a couple of blankets for some quality time in each other’s’ company.

Cocktail Making and Celebrations

If a quiet night isn’t on the cards, why not channel your inner mixologist and have a couple’s cocktail night with a few friends? Your roof lantern will help to create the ultimate home bar and dancefloor area, perfect to have a few drinks and celebrate Valentine’s day in style. Crank up the playlist, get the games out and pop the ingredients to your favourite drinks on a drinks trolley for ultimate portability. This way you can enjoy a drinks station under the stars, wherever your friends are!
