Home Β» Things to Do Β» Date Ideas. But why do that when we have some out of the box ideas for you below? But, after 21 years of traveling together and marriage , Craig and I feel confident we know how to experience a city in fun and unique ways that also nurture our relationship and keep us feeling charged with love after all these years.
We believe the best date ideas can be those where you simply spend time together and learn together, adventure together, and have loads of fun β day or night! If you have kids like us, consider more day time dates, or early evening , especially if you have an older child who can mind the younger siblings.
You will find a few traditional date ideas in our list, just because traditional and normal can sometimes be good. We have a separate guide for that. A couple of restaurants still high on our list for having some of the best dishes and local flavors:. After my first speakeasy encounter walking through the locker door in an old middle school building into a hidden world of class and cocktails, I was hooked on finding more. Raleigh has a couple of classy speakeasies and cocktail bars waiting for you and your romantic partner to explore.
Craig and I often sit at the bar when we get time out from the kids. This is also a good idea for those first kinds of dates where they may be a little awkward. Nothing like a good bartender to rescue the conversation! Here are some of our favorite cocktail bars in Raleigh.
Way back in the year , Craig and I would walk around our local RV park on the beach in Australia pretending we were on vacation. I think I can safely say, living out our travel dreams from where we were helped us to make them a reality! This is probably my favorite of all our date ideas and we still do this all the time. Whatever country you are dreaming of, Raleigh will have a restaurant, or drink, to help you travel there in an instant.
