A couple of weeks ago I went to an intimate dinner party and thought the presentation would be great for a Valentine Day dinner. These Valentine’s decoration ideas would work for just the two of you or an intimate party of four or six or even more.
Like all other special events, when we arrived we were treated to wonderful hors d’oeuvres and specialty martinis. In fact, one way to incorporate Valentine’s decoration for your Valentine Day dinner is to serve a cosmopolitan martini as the specialty drink of the evening. Re-name the martini a Sweetheart-tini or maybe a Romantic-tini. The ingredients and color make this drink a perfect match for the holiday. (For other specialty martini recipes check out pages 87 and 88 in Budget Bash.)
What I loved about this dinner was the décor. In fact, many of these décor ideas are simple tips that can turn any dining room into a romantic setting easily and inexpensively.
Why spend money on a specialty tablecloth? One Valentine’s decoration idea is to simply purchase red velvet or red satin fabric and drape it over your table as a decorative overlay. Or, create a table runner with either one of your fabric choices.
