WRITE YOUR VOWS OR LOVE LETTER
Use Valentine's Day as a time to reflect and reminisce on your relationship.  {And if the thought of writing your vows seems overwhelming, start by writing a separate love letter to share with one another before the ceremony.}

RING SHOPPING
Valentine's Day is the perfect time to take a romantic trip to the jewelry store together to pick out your wedding bands!

PICK THE SONG FOR YOUR FIRST DANCE
Spend the night listening to your favorite romantic playlists and start narrowing down songs to find the perfect one you want to use for your first dance together.

PICK OUT READINGS FOR THE CEREMONY
Grab a glass of champagne or wine and start searching for meaningful readings that speak to you and your fiancé.  Before you start your search, make sure you decide on a vibe you want for your ceremony. Then do your best to avoid popular passages, and find a few that are unique to your ceremony and relationship.

RESEARCH YOUR SIGNATURE COCKTAIL
Find a cozy corner table at your favorite local bar and try out some fun and unique cocktails!  Once you've tried a few, put those creative juices to work thinking of fun and creative names for the cocktail!

GET YOUR MARRIAGE LICENSE
What better way to make this legal and unromantic task rather sweet and exciting?  And remember, marriage licenses are valid for six months so don't go running to city hall if you still have over six months until the wedding!
