Valentine’s Day (or weekend) is the one time a year you and your sweetheart should have some alone time.  For many of us that means leaving the kids at home and worries at work!  There needs to be some uninterrupted time for just the two of you.

Here are just a few ideas for spending the day or weekend.

1) This is what my husband and I are going to enjoy.  We have a “romantic getaway” booked at the Inn on the Park at Capitol Square.  We are going to pretend we are out of town, away from all the hustle of everyday.  We have never done anything like this before.  There will be wine, roses, and a stroll down State Street.  The main thing is we will be doing something together!

2) For those of you who really can get away for a few days or a week, you might want to consider skiing up around Lake Geneva or Elkhorn.  I personally have never been to a ski lodge/spa but hear from others they can be quite romantic with roaring fires and fantastic hot tubs.  Check them out.

3) If you want something simpler, you might just consider a dinner for two at the fabulous Dayton Street Grille in The Madison Concourse Hotel and Governor’s Club.  Their chef was named by the Madison Magazine as the Best Local Chef for two years running (2008 and 2009).  Be sure to call for reservations.  It’s right downtown, so you can take a walk around the capitol or even arrange for a horse drawn carriage ride around Capitol Square.

No matter what you and your sweetheart decide on, it will be right for you.  Have fun!
