Although you cannot tour your venue in person at the moment, you can see them virtually.

Taking the format of the Mr &amp; Mrs quiz our <a href=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wedding-gift-lists\/\">couples and their guests really enjoy this part of the wedding<\/a>. Why not use valentine\u2019s day to write your questions together and send them off to whoever has the job of hosting the quiz?

Valentine&#8217;s is the most romantic day of the year. Sit down with your significant other and decide on your first dance song. Remember it needs to be personal to you so do not worry about what your guest will think. Once the song has been picked, start practising your first dance together\u2014a super romantic idea but also a fabulous memory to hold on to forever.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">4 Choose your wedding scent &#8211; One thing I say to all my couples is to choose a special scent for your wedding day and not wear it before the big day. That way, whenever you smell the scent, you will be reminded of your wedding day. Take the time to sit down and research some of your favourite perfume creators and put your order in for your <a href=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/\">special wedding day<\/a> scent.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/tyler-michael-566.jpg\" alt=\"Lockdown Love \u2013 5 Ways to Celebrate Valentine\u2019s Day this year whilst locked down with your true love.\" class=\"wp-image-11011206\" width=\"784\" height=\"522\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/tyler-michael-566.jpg\" alt=\"Lockdown Love \u2013 5 Ways to Celebrate Valentine\u2019s Day this year whilst locked down with your true love.\" class=\"wp-image-11011206\" width=\"784\" height=\"522\"\/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Lockdown Love \u2013 5 Ways to Celebrate Valentine\u2019s Day this year whilst locked down with your true love.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">5 Write your wedding vows &#8211; If you have not written your wedding vows yet there is no better time to write these than on the most romantic day of the year.
