I am planning this year's Fancy Family Valentine's Dinner so have been searching the internet for some new ideas. Here are some of my favorites.

The Table- Most of these are disposable, making cleanup easier!
Dinner
For dinner you really don't have to do anything fancy, just do something everyone likes. Eric and I love sushi- the kids not so much, so we will get heart shaped ravioli for the kids and sushi for ourselves; makes it a win-win for everyone.

Start the meal right with a heart shaped fruit salad
Grill Some steak or pork chops with a side of heart shaped potatoes
What an awesome party post! Super cute ideas; I especially love the cut out pepperoni and potato heart shapes!
ReplyDeleteYes, food cut into shapes just makes it more fun and yummy for some reason :)
DeleteOh I love this!! Growing up, my mom always made a special family Valentine's dinner and I loved it. I want to start this same tradition with my littles.
ReplyDeleteThank you! Yes, we didn’t really do anything growing up, but this has definitely become a favorite tradition.
DeleteI think I'm going to try something like this with Chris and the kids. Neither Chris nor I is really into Valentine's Day at all, and the idea of going out on that day is, like, pure insanity. But this sounds like fun.
ReplyDeleteYes, I have no desire to go out on the actual day, and the kids really do love this.
DeleteI love idea and creativity. I am going to borrow most of these ideas for out Valentine's Day night in!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Hope you have a great night!

ReplyDeleteSo many cute ideas! I love all the heart shaped foods!
ReplyDeleteThank you! It is fun to have food fit the theme
DeleteI love this tradition! We usually do a Valentine's Day breakfast, but we might also do a dinner this year, too!
ReplyDeleteThat would be fun to do a breakfast- and would be easier this year with V-day being on Sunday
DeleteThis is perfect! A friend suggested this to me a few years ago. She said she brings out her best china and tablecloths and all. We still haven't done it yet, but it's a tradition I'd love to start!
