Autumn Date Night Ideas
Posted on: 04/11/2022The lengthier, sunnier evenings of our heatwave summer are long gone. But don't worry, autumn date night ideas merely need a shift in thinking, not social hibernation until March. The trick though, is to embrace the colder evenings by snuggling up with your other half, wrapped up in your best autumn date night outfit and accessories. It can be a fun time of year when it comes to styling, which is something to bear in mind! Without further ado, here are five autumn date night suggestions for you and your lover to enjoy during autumn.
Have a horror movie marathon
A horror movie marathon is a classic Halloween twist on a cosy autumn date night idea - that's if you can handle it! You can go all out by setting the scene with candles and fairy lights (or, even better, carved pumpkins).
Then of course, you'll need to compile the food and drink. You can order a takeaway or even incorporate a pre-date cooking session together. The more on-theme you can get with your creations the better, whether you whip up spooky cookies or a gory spaghetti bolognaise.
Go pumpkin picking
An all-time classic for this time of year, pumpkin picking is a great autumn date idea. The first half of the date will take place in the daytime - wrap up warm, throw on your wellies and grab your wheelbarrow before heading out to spot the perfect pumpkin.
What you do from there is up to you - although a pumpkin-carving competition is the natural next step. The prize could be anything from choosing what to have for dinner that evening to having the power over what you do on your next date night. Then of course, there's the option of making a delicious pumpkin soup with any leftovers.
Book in at your favourite restaurant
In the mood for food? Get yourselves booked in at your all-time favourite restaurant. Whether it's at an Italian, Indian or something different altogether, it's a great activity for a gloomy autumnal evening, made even more romantic with low lighting and a beautiful setting.
To really make their evening, why not gift your partner with a piece of diamond jewellery? A stunning pair of diamond earrings for example is bound to go down a treat and would complement any autumn date night outfit.
Visit a fair
If you're after a more light-hearted autumn date night idea, this may be for you. From whizzing around on the Waltzers to eating giant hot dogs, there's something for everyone here. You might even get lucky on one of the prize stalls.
Autumn's a great season to visit the fairground, with the twinkling lights looking even brighter against the night sky. Even better if the fair links to a local bonfire event, meaning you can gaze up at the fireworks, take part in apple bobbing and drink hot chocolate to your heart's content.
Indulge in cider and wine tasting
Going on a date with a cider or wine lover? Booking yourselves onto a tasting session is guaranteed to be well-received. Educational and delicious, it's an event that's a little different from the norm.
Make sure you line your stomach with a nice meal beforehand, then sit back and listen to the ins and outs of whatever it is you're drinking, whether it's a rich red or a warming cider. A lot of these events take place in brilliant settings too, so make sure you book onto one that takes your fancy. It's one of the more unusual autumn date night ideas out there but is bound to be a winner!
