Valentine’s Day is the ideal time to express your feelings for your significant other. It can, however, be a time when mistakes are made.

Whether you’re single or in a relationship, it’s easy to make common mistakes that can ruin the holiday.

In this article, we’ll go over the top 10 Valentine’s Day mistakes to avoid and offer solutions to help you have a successful and memorable holiday. From procrastination to overspending, we’ll cover all the pitfalls to avoid and offer advice on how to avoid them.

So, whether you’re planning a romantic dinner or a special surprise, keep reading to learn how to make this Valentine’s Day unforgettable.

Not planning ahead

One of the most common Valentine’s Day mistakes is not planning ahead of time.

Making dinner reservations or purchasing a gift at the last minute can lead to disappointment and stress.

The solution is to plan ahead of time and ensure that everything is taken care of.

Over-expecting

Another blunder is overestimation of the holiday.

Setting unrealistic expectations, whether for an extravagant gift or an over-the-top romantic gesture, can lead to disappointment.

The solution is to set realistic expectations and concentrate on the small details that distinguish your relationship.

Ignoring your partner’s feelings

ignorance

On Valentine’s Day, failing to consider your partner’s feelings and preferences can be a costly mistake.

Whether it’s planning a surprise they don’t want or purchasing a gift they don’t want, failing to consider their likes and dislikes can result in a less-than-ideal holiday.

The solution is to talk with your partner and find out what they want to do or what they expect from the vacation.

Comparing your relationship to others

On Valentine’s Day, comparing your relationship to others can be a big mistake.

Every relationship is distinct and should be celebrated accordingly.

The solution is to concentrate on what makes your relationship unique rather than comparing it to others.

Not being thoughtful

thoughtful

Going through the motions and not thinking about the holiday can lead to a lack of romance and connection.

The solution is to plan ahead of time and make the holiday special for you and your partner.

Not communicating

A common mistake on Valentine’s Day is failing to communicate your feelings and expectations.

Misunderstandings, disappointment, and frustration can result.

The solution is to communicate with your partner openly and honestly to ensure you are on the same page.

Spending too much money

expensive

Overspending on Valentine’s Day can be a mistake.

It is not so much about how much money you spend as it is about how much thought and effort you put into the holiday.

The solution is to concentrate on thoughtful gestures rather than extravagant gifts.

Ignoring self-care

Valentine’s Day can be stressful, and neglecting self-care can result in burnout.

The solution is to take care of yourself, whether that means going for a walk or engaging in a favourite hobby.

Being too predictable

On Valentine’s Day, being too predictable can lead to a lack of excitement and surprise.

The solution is to think outside the box and create something unexpected and one-of-a-kind.

Not being present

absent

A lack of connection and intimacy can result from not being fully present and engaged in the holiday.

Put away distractions, be present in the moment, and concentrate on your partner.

Conclusion

Finally, while Valentine’s Day is a special day to celebrate love and affection, it can also be a time for errors.

It’s important to remember that the holiday is about showing your loved one that you care, not about overspending or setting unrealistic expectations.

You can ensure that this Valentine’s Day will be one to remember by planning ahead of time, being thoughtful and putting effort into the holiday, communicating openly, focusing on self-care, being present, and avoiding common mistakes.

Remember to keep things simple, to focus on the small details that make your relationship unique, and, most importantly, to enjoy your time with the person you care about.

Valentine’s day in 2022 unlike the last two years, which has been on the weekend, has fallen on a Monday. Yes, yes, I know how we all feel about Mondays. But its on this date and we can either complain or make the most of it. Luckily, this isn’t the first time that valentine’s day has fallen on the dreaded day.

Feb 14th being on a Monday is especially tricky if you have kids, a demanding job, studies, and other responsibilities. I am sure all of us would just like to come home, help the kids with homework, prepare dinner, and go to bed getting ready for the next day.

Since we don’t want to waste the day for lovers, I have prepared something for you to think about. Through this article, I will show you things to do on a Monday date night that will both charm and delight you and your partner.

Netflix and Chill

Netflix

This is the simplest and fun way to spend your Valentine’s Day. This involves you and your sweetheart, wrapped in a warm blanked watching movies together. Nothing can be simpler.

This has the added benefit of spending it at home and can be done even if you have kids. After sending them to bed, the two of you can pick romantic movie titles and start watching.

Even though you will be in the house, I advise both of you to shower and dress up so that you commemorate the day. During this time, you can give each other flowers and chocolate.

Home dinner

This is another thing you can do while you are at home. But rather than asking your spouse to make the food after a long day at work, you can order in. Thanks to Glovo, Ubereats and Little eats, you can now order most dishes from many restaurants in Kenya.

You can look at the online menu of the places you would like to buy from, pick a dish and then simply order. In most cases the food will arrive after an hour. The whole family can enjoy valentine dinner.

One fun thing you can do to make it spicy, is to order different foods from different places. For example, you can order Indian, Italian, and Asian meals.

After the meals you can exchange gifts.

Game night

Finely Crafted Tree of Life Pendant

This mostly applies to couples who love to play games. I personally enjoy competing with my bae in cards, ludo, and monopoly. This ends up being a lot of fun, especially if I am winning. A word of caution should be said… don’t make your loved one lose too much it stops being fun.

You can spice up each game from the normal poker to strip poker and have a saucy night. Your only hope here would ensure your spouse isn’t better than you.

Star gazing

A cute pair of multicolored star shaped silver stud earrings

Do you live in an apartment where you have access to the roof, or do you have a backyard where you can see the stars? If the answer is yes to any of the two then you can carry a couple of foldable chairs and a warm outdoor blanket and go look at the stars.

If the 14th will be a clear day, you can look at the stars. Since none of you are astronauts, apologies to the ones who are, you can use a stargazing app to help you identify constellations in the sky. To make it more interesting you can tell each other the back story of the stars.

Hotel Stay

entim camp

For those who have a bit more change in their pockets going to a hotel is a great idea. During this time many hotels normally have great offers for dinner and the room. You will get great service from the restaurant and when you are done eating you can go to the room.

The advantage to booking a hotel rather than staying at home is that you don’t have to worry about dirty dishes and cleaning up. Also, most hotels have amazing restaurants, and you can literally have your cake and eat it.

In the morning you can both go to your respective jobs without interfering with your schedules. There are plenty of hotels to chose from in Nairobi, from budget hotels to 5-star ones.

Conclusion

There is a lot you can do on Valentine’s Day even if it falls on a Monday. With a little bit of creativity, you and your special one can have a memorable night to be enjoyed by the two of you.

As there is still time to this coming valentine you can prepare something special for the two of you. Go ahead and start your plans.

You have been dating your significant other for some time now and you feel that you are ready to take the next step. You are ready to put a ring on her finger to make it official to the government and to your friends.

There is a lot to worry about when it comes to proposing. Even though you have had a steady relationship and you have been through a lot together. Getting down on one knee takes a lot of courage and you don’t know what your partner will say. We all want the answer to be yes but still there is that niggling feeling.

Secondly when you are considering when to propose you have to think of how you are going to do it. You don’t want to just ask for someone’s hand in marriage, you must make it special. Planning a perfect proposal is intimidating, tiring and nerve wracking. This adds more undue pressure to you.

silver engagement ring

Luckily Valentine’s is coming up in a few weeks and there is no better day to propose than on Valentine’s. Valentine’s day is the best day to propose because it is a day signified by love and everything that it embodies.

The best gift you can give your lover on Feb 14th is an engagement ring. Did you know that 6 million couples every year propose around the world? Well, if you are going to be included in that list this year, here is a guide on how to do it.

We have come up with options for you to pick from so that even if your partner is an introvert or an extrovert, he or she is bound to love the ideas presented. Your only problem will be picking one idea.

First date

sterling silver engagement

You could have been dating for a year or many years depending on the length of your relationship, the one thing that you will never forget is your first date. This also includes people who have known each other for some time and then they decided to go on their first date.

This is a significant milestone moment as it determined either the first date you met or the first time you took each other seriously.

Recreating your first date for proposing on Feb 14th is truly magical. Your bae will see how romantic you are by remembering details of the first time you were together. Recreating the memories of the day will bring nostalgic emotions and remind the two of you how far you have come from and how far you will be going.

If your first date was in a restaurant, a picnic, a party or went to watch a movie, doing this again will do wonders for your relationship.

As you will be doing it on the 14th, your partner might not see it coming as they would just think this is a special Valentine. When you get on you knee to present the ring he or she will be taken by surprise.

The added benefit of doing this is that your love story will be retold for generations to come. You will also be the source of envy amongst your friends and family.

Home Cooked meal

doubel silver engagement ring

Nothing is more personal than a home cooked meal. By now you already know what the love of your life loves to eat. You know he or she could love to eat chapatis, rice and beans, managu etc. This should give you the chance to show how much you love her and know her by cooking her favourite dish.

I should also mention some of these dishes aren’t easy to make for all of us but there are shortcuts. You can get a friend or a relative to come to your home early and prepare the food for you. Later you can present partner with the dish.

Your lover will know you haven’t cooked it, but will be grateful, nonetheless. At the end of the meal, when you are both stuffed. You can present your loved one with the engagement ring. Here you have a variety of options, you can put it in the desert or just pop the question.

Movie Night

Gorgeous silver engagement ring

Having a movie night is a romantic way of spending Valentine’s. Before the watching begins get a collection of the most romantic movies to share with her. Look for classics like the Notebook, Titanic and The Fault in Our Stars. In addition, you can add her favourites into the mix.

So, dim the light, grab a blanket, switch on Netflix and cuddle. During the film’s climatic moments – the most romantic moment- pause the movie and propose.

If you decide to go to the theatres to watch a movie, you can wait till the end of the film. Then when they switch on the lights you could be kneeling and propose to them.

Jewellers

The Little Jewellers

The best proposals in my opinion are the ones that the other person doesn’t see it coming. One way to completely surprise your partner is by agreeing to meet up at a jewellery store. She will think you are being cliché by just getting them jewellery for Valentine’s.

The surprise will come in by asking her to choose an engagement ring that they like and see if it fits. Once your love has the ring on, you can proceed to pop the question. The person will be shocked and will say yes immediately.

14 days of gifts

This sterling silver heart-shaped necklace has a smaller open heart at the bottom, making it a perfect choice for you.

Another unique way of proposing comes from copying what happens in December. This follows the 12 days to Christmas, but rather than 12 days we have 14 days to Valentine’s. With this, from the 1st to the 13th of the month you are to give your partner small gifts leading up to the 14th.

On the day of Valentine’s your partner will be looking forward to her gift. After building so much anticipation, you can get on your knee and ask for her to be your partner for life.

Conclusion

I hope I have given you a few good options to make your Valentine’s and engagement day special. The most important thing to remember it’s not about the grand gestures but it’s the feeling that you both have for each other.

Your love for one another will take you through the rest of your lives. Good luck in your proposal and if you are to try any of our tips, please comment to tell us what worked for you.

Figuring out the best Valentine’s day gift for men is a very tricky experience- and we know it! Gifting ladies is an easy task. But for men? It’s hard to shop for them in general, be it on their birthdays or anniversaries. Not only is their taste peculiar, but also their wish list can be a big ask. If you are finding it hard getting a gift for him, might we suggest a sterling silver piece? Here is why:

They are unique

Ladies, 2021 is the year to trade in those boxers and tea gifts something more worthwhile. Agreed? A sterling silver bracelet, for example, is a thoughtful gift that your man will love. Guys at times like to get gifts that they haven’t thought of. A sterling chain link, for example, is an expression of something more than love and your man will love wearing it for you.

They are easy to maintain and last long

Unlike other metals, sterling silver needs little maintenance routines. Just polishing now and then to return the shine. While sterling silver may be prone to fading as compared to pure silver, it has increased strength as compared to other metals and therefore lasts longer. Sterling silver is best for a man who will wear the piece beyond Valentine’s.

Doesn’t irritate the skin?

Nothing is as unromantic as rashes on the day, right? No need to worry about hypoallergenic jewelry with silver sterling. These pieces are safe to wear and unlike other jewelry made from inexpensive metals like brass, silver sterling don’t contain metals that cause allergic reactions.

Saves you a ton! 

Do you want to get him pure silver cufflinks for Valentine’s day, but are afraid of the costs? Sterling silver gives you the same look as pure silver, but costs way less. They are eye-catching and will not fail to impress. Sterling silver is also more affordable compared to metals like bronze and gold.

Endless varieties

Silver is a relatively soft metal and is preferred by jewelers to make a variety of unique jewelry varieties and shapes. This simply means innovation is constant and there are constantly new designs for men’s jewelry that fit their style. Whether you are looking for a ring, a bracelet, cufflink, chain, or pendant, you are guaranteed a selection.

Get that gift personalized

The flexibility of sterling silver gifts accords you the choice of personalizing the gift. Should you opt for a sterling ring, for example, you could have your man’s name engraved or have a sweet message written on the gift. What better Valentine’s gift than one with a heartfelt message that he will keep for life?

Congratulations! It is, finally, Valentine’s. You planned to make that day the most memorable for your partner, you will go on one knee or Inscribe a huge ‘Will you Marry Me’ text on the sand, But with a few days to go, have you found the perfect engagement ring? Fear not! Here is our guide to getting that ring just in time for your Valentine’s magical proposal.

The Cut & Style

Are you considering a simply styled ring or one with adornments? The shape or the cut of the ring is always a great place to start in your engagement ring search.

Go for a design that matches your partner’s style. Study them to see what kind of jewelry they like. If she is drawn to cool or shiny hues, then you may want to opt for sterling silver engagement rings.

Size matters

It’s easy to get the correct ring size if you are ring shopping with your partner, however, the challenge comes when you want it as a complete surprise. At the jewellers, you will find a ring size chart to guide you on identifying the ring size.  All you need is a close estimation and the jeweler will help you get a size that closely fits. How do we suggest you get the measurements in the first place? Well, you have to be creative! Measure her finger as she sleeps or ask their close friend and family to gather the information for you.

The blending rule

Not to be presumptuous, but it might be a great idea to buy your wedding bands and the engagement ring from the same jeweler. Not only does this save you on cost, but it also assures you of buying pieces that blend or complement each other. Find a jeweler that can give you varieties of both rings so that you can choose in advance.

Of money matters

An engagement ring is a pretty deep commitment. However, be sure to work within your budget. Also keep in mind that the more stones and adornments you want, the more the price goes up. If budget allows, you could also opt to engrave a message or initials on the ring. While the popular range of engagement rings is crafted from platinum or gold, you will find that silver engagement rings are becoming more popular due to their affordability and lifespan.

Visiting a jewelry store is always the best way to get advice on engagement rings and you get to sample different varieties. Visit us and let us help you make the most memorable valentine’s engagement.

Feeling anxious about Valentine’s Day? Perhaps caused by anxiousness on the looming projected, out of pocket spend? Fear not. We have fantastic tips for you on some on the budget activities to still guarantee you a fantastic day but on a moderate spend.

The Ideas Jar

Relationships are about inclusivity. A great way to get spontaneous and collect Valentine’s ideas from your partner is by putting together your thoughts. As you plan towards the day, set up a jar or a box where each partner will drop in a written out thought on simple ideas to do for Valentines. Together, choose the ideas that are feasible and those that fit within your budget.

Look out for couples’ deals

Valentine’s day is a heavily commercialized calendar event with numerous offers directed for couples. From movie tickets to gifts, cab rides to fashion and jewelry, one is sure to enjoy unbelievable discounts on this day. So as to be sure not to miss out on these great deals, be on the lookout for publications on the media or take a trip to the nearest store to see what works.

Dinner at home

Home cooked meals are a sure way of saving a few coins for this Valentine’s Day. You automatically spend more when you eat out due to the logistical expenses incurred. To get the mood right, you could play some warm music and work on ambiance lighting by using candles. Spruce up the dining room with a few petals or flowers and accompany the dinner with a good bottle of wine or your favorite drink. Point to note, eating in is not an excuse for shabby dressing. Dress up and play the part.

Thinking flowers?

Valentines doesn’t just have to be about red roses, which tend to be a bit more expensive on this day.  Go for other floral options in the market. Alternatively, you could buy the roses early in advance, store them carefully and save yourself some coins. Choose bouquets with tight buds thereby allowing them to stay fresh for a longer period as you await the D-Day to approach.

Low-key bling’s

Valentines is mostly always about gifts and jewelry. Silver Jewelry in the form of unique pendant, ring or bracelet pieces are affordable gifts that you can go for.  Make sure you choose a trusted jeweler with a variety of pieces to choose from. Get it nicely wrapped and packed together with written love note expressing your affection for your partner.

Valentine’s day has moved on from the red painting of the town. Unlike women who are generally born romantics, men always find themselves struggling to please and raise the bar. A little advice for fellas, if you have a relationship that is going well and want to keep it that way, it might be best that you try not to overlook the love month. Here are some tips to keep you on your toes as you plan for the upcoming Valentine’s Day.

Start early

Forgetting Valentines Day can be viewed as bad, however, failing to start planning early and having your plan fail in front of your eyes is worse. After deciding on activities of the day, start organizing yourself by perhaps creating a small checklist. Mark the milestones on your calendar if you have to. Plan ahead to make it memorable.

Mind the spend

This is especially for those couples that share a bank account. Going overboard with expenses will attract attention from your partner, ruining the surprise in the long run. Also, keeping within the budget will lessen her worry on expenses and give her a chance to enjoy the surprise. At times, it’s the little thought out things that matter.

Put the phone down

Regularly checking for messages and rushing to pick up a call or update your social media feed is a huge buzz kill for such an occasion. Turn off your electronics and focus all your attention on your partner. An exception to the rule is to keep a camera close by for those goofy and life-changing moments.

A little romance wouldn’t hurt

Being a man doesn’t necessarily mean no feelings. Valentine’s day is all about romance. If going out, take time to dress up the part. Hold her hand, pull her chair at the restaurant, leave little love notes and maybe, send her some flowers to her office.

Some DIY perhaps?

Creativity and innovation will earn you major point this Valentine’s. Engage in some homemade DIY activities to demonstrate thought for your partner. You could perhaps make a card using her favorite colors or make a collage from pictures of you as a couple. Cut out some love hearts and write notes all over. The goal is to make her smile.

Be the chef

Almost definitely, the day always includes a meal. Be it for breakfast in bed, some delicious brunch or dinner, pick up the apron for once and make her a home-cooked meal.

Write down how you feel

Jot down a love note, an expression of feelings that she can refer to on her worst days.  This should be simple to show how much she means to you, what you love about her and how she makes you feel. Get it delivered to her office or home and seal the deal.

Settle down for a movie she loves

Valentine’s day is all about chick flicks. Do not pressure her to watch a football game or your action-packed series if she doesn’t subscribe to them. Let her choose what she would like for once.

Chocolate or flowers?

Valentines Engagement Ring Kenya

If you are feeling the time is right, why not go for an engagement ring? Choose a ring that fits your budget, perhaps an affordable and long-lasting silver piece. The big tip on this is to make sure that you read her signs and drop some hints. This should help you decide on the best proposal idea that would melt her heart.

Love wins every day, but with Valentines Day, the profession of love is looked on with awe and undeniable admiration. This might be the reason why many proposals happen on this day. Do you feel its time to skip the flowers and chocolate and go for the ring? Here are a few ideas to spark your Valentine’s Day proposal.

A little nostalgia

Take a trip down memory lane to the day you had your first date. This can help you set the mood for a fun-filled evening and a grand gesture. Memories are built on intimacy and it is only fitting that you set the stage of a lasting relationship by acknowledging where it all started. If not first dates, try to revisit or recreate special moments that had an impact on your relationship.

Let nature do the trick

The calmness and tranquility of a nature walk or a hike, for the free-spirited, can set a great scene to pop the question. Beautiful sceneries tied with heartfelt declarations on how your life has changed will most definitely bring forth a few tears. However, be mindful of weather patterns and wild animals, especially if you opt for an in-the-wild kind of proposal.

Let’s play a game

If you are looking for the extraordinary, why not make a game out of it, say, by creating a treasure hunt or a trivia game? This proposal will one, through them off balance as they are less likely to suspect the agenda and two, bring you two closer in the most informal setting. Be mindful however not to make it too complicated that your partner gets frustrated and worked up. You wouldn’t want your partner to be in a foul mood when proposing, right?

A ‘this could be us’ presentation?

Picture this. A slideshow or show picture clip starts playing when you two have settled down to catch up on your favorite TV show. Pictures then start streaming by of the two of you together highlighting the important moments. The last slide then sums it up showing what the future will bring then comes the question, ‘Will you marry me?’  This scenario values privacy and comfort, plus, you will get bonus points for creativity.

Shout it on the mountains top.

This is for the ones who a looking for a public and lasting impression. Valentine proposals in movie theaters, music concerts or over the radio are sights to behold. This, however, requires adequate planning and a few calls or trips to the venue of choice just to get the proposal right.

Proposals are meant to be emotional and if someone asks, ‘how did you two get engaged?’ a romantic story on your perfect Valentine’s engagement is always a heartwarming start.

There are two days you cannot forget in your girlfriend’s life, her birthday and Valentine’s Day; lest you will never hear the end of it. So Valentine’s Day being here with us means that men are out window shopping for gifts. So what is it that makes a girl happy on valentines?

  1. Chocolates and confectioneries

You will never go wrong with chocolates and confectioneries. However, step out of the norm and get her a good label that looks elegant and has different flavors. Remember there is power in numbers, the more the merrier.

You can also have a chocolate cake baked for her with her name and a photo, of course to too large a cake, but a size that says this one is specifically for you.

  1. Get her lingerie

Well, this one goes well with married people or those who has taken their relationship to the next level. You do not want to send the wrong message so if you are not intimate to that level, please do not try this at home. You can get red lingerie, or costume nighties e.g. nurse, cop and the like.

  1. Matching necklace and earrings

Silver necklace and earrings, you will not miss the spot, just personalize it to her specifications, you know her tastes and preferences by now. I the set you could also include a ring or two, that is if your intention is not a proposal. That way you will not get yourself mixed up.

  1. Get flowers

Well, the streets of Nairobi will be covered with flowers so why not make her have own? To make it out of the ordinary, jot a poem and slip it in the flowers.

  1. Have dinner plans

Take her out for dinner; let her have her favorite meal and drink. Talk the night away share your dreams and visions and know which part you hold in your beau’s heart.

  1. Road trip

Plan a road trip prior, just don’t tell her where you will be taking her, (you know, the element of surprise,). It could be a weekend or just a day you spend together.

  1. An engagement ring

You love her and you want her for keeps, right? Why not surprise her with a Silver engagement ring and make it last forever!
