Having a Romantic Valentine's Day In Your Airstream Trailer

Your Airstream trailer could be the perfect spot for Valentine's Day date night. It lets you spend time with your loved one doing what you love most: traveling. It isn't hard to make a romantic date night involving your Airstream, but it does take some planning. We created the following guide to crafting the perfect Valentine's Day in your Airstream trailer below. For all your RV needs, visit Airstream of Utah in Salt Lake City. We proudly serve those in Park City, Provo, and Ogden.

Setting Up Your Airstream

You'll want to make your trailer feel special for Valentine's Day. With a bit of proactivity, you can transform your normal family vacation spot into a romantic getaway!

Decorating Your Airstream

A little decoration can go a long way in cultivating a romantic atmosphere and it starts with lighting. For a fire-safe candle alternative, use battery-powered candles. Some are even designed to flicker like a real flame. For outdoor lighting, string lights up on your RV awning.

Another fun approach is to decorate your trailer with memories of your relationship. Put out photos from early dates or milestones, such as anniversaries. Set out objects from memorable dates, such as a Christmas ornament from your first Christmas together or that stuffed animal you won from the carnival on your first date.

Finally, you can use typical Valentine's Day decorations! Put up anything heart-shaped, teddy bears, cupids, roses, and so on.

Food

You don't have to cook a whole meal to make the food feel special. Try setting up a cheese platter with wine for a touch of elegance. Or make a dessert with chocolate-covered strawberries. All you need is to put chocolate in a small pot, then set that pot inside a larger pot with hot water. It'll melt the chocolate, which you can then dip the strawberries in. Set them on wax paper to cool and harden.

Music

Music is a great way to transform your Airstream into a romantic getaway. Typical Valentine's Day music includes soft jazz, gentle guitar, or iconic love songs. If you have different tastes in music than your loved one, playing their favorite genre can be a sweet gesture.

Kids and Date Night

If your kids are joining you for this trip, enlist their help! You can do a craft night making trailer decorations or Valentine's Day cards for your partner. Older kids can also help with preparing food or building a playlist. You don't have to do it all on your own.

If your kids are old enough to be left alone, plan an activity so that you and your partner can get some time just for the two of you. Maybe they can watch a movie in the Airstream while you two go on a walk. You can also see if the campsite offers any activities that they can enjoy with adult supervision too.

Activities

One perk of using your RV as your Valentine's Day date headquarters is that it offers you plenty of flexibility! It's easy to find a great date night that you can travel to in your RV or host inside your Airstream!

Star-Gazing

Curl up together under the stars for a romantic evening. All you need is warm clothes and a blanket. Bring along wine, battery-powered candles, and a cheese and cracker platter to step up the elegance.

Watch a Sunrise or Sunset

Start or end Valentine's Day with a stunning view. Find an RV campground near a mountain that you can hike up to get a gorgeous view of the surrounding landscape. Don't forget the camera.

Enjoy a Hot Tub or Hot Springs

Valentine's Day tends to arrive in cold weather. Warm up in a hot tub or at a hot spring! See if you can find a higher-end campsite with a hot tub or go RV camping near hot springs.

Dinner

A romantic evening meal is a Valentine's Day classic for a reason! You may need to go for a bit of a drive from the campsite, but you can find a fancy restaurant to spend the holiday in. Just be sure to get a reservation in advance. If you want to skip the drive and the crowds, stay in and cook your partner's favorite meal. Or you can do the classic picnic on a beach or a mountain to enjoy dinner and a view.
