  1. Cinema Trip

Get your crew together and head to the cinema. Let the girls decide if they want to watch something romantic, a comedy or a thrilling adventure and treat yourselves to the large popcorn, large drink and all of the chocolate.

  1. Romantic Book Club

Movies not really your thing? Why not organise a romantic book club. Choose a fun romantic book for everyone to read and then invite all the girls over to your place to discuss over some wine and nibbles (and by nibbles we mean lots of chocolate and crisps). Why not take it to the next step and pamper your skin with a gorgeous facemask from Rituals – books, wine, facemasks and nibbles = our idea of a heavenly evening.

If you’re stuck looking for a book to choose, Dubray always have some really great recommendations. Check out some of their Valentine's recommendations here.
