Set the Scene for Romance

Transform your living room or bedroom into a cozy retreat. Use soft throw blankets and pillows, ambient lighting, and your favorite scented candles to evoke a relaxing, romantic mood. Vive at Kellswater’s apartments are designed with 9-foot ceilings and expansive layouts, giving you plenty of space to spread out and decorate to your heart’s content. Dim the overhead lights and turn on soft music to create an inviting atmosphere.

Cook a Gourmet Meal Together

Skip the crowded restaurants and put your apartment’s gourmet, open-concept kitchen to use. Whether you’re in a one-bedroom Beech or Sequoia, a two-bedroom Willow or Oak, or the spacious three-bedroom Hawthorne, you’ll find modern cabinetry, energy-efficient appliances, and beautiful breakfast bars perfect for prepping and serving dinner.

Pick recipes that feel festive, such as:

  • Heart-shaped pizzas or flatbreads
  • Homemade pasta with red sauce
  • Chocolate-dipped strawberries for dessert

Cooking together is a bonding activity that will fill your home with delicious aromas and laughter. Don’t forget to pair your meal with a romantic toast—perhaps with local North Carolina wine.

Enjoy a Spa Night In

Celebrate self-care and connection by turning your bathroom into a mini spa. With elegant fixtures and modern appliances, every bathroom at Vive at Kellswater is tailored for relaxation. Run a bath, mix in some rose petals, and bring in cozy robes and plush towels. You can take turns giving each other hand or shoulder massages, or simply relax together listening to soothing playlists.

Create a Personalized Movie Marathon

Choose a theme—romantic comedies, classic love stories, or your favorite adventure flicks—and set up a movie marathon in your living room. With natural light by day and cozy soft lighting at night, your living room can be the ultimate entertainment lounge. Don’t forget the popcorn, snacks, and snuggly blankets!

Enjoy a Private Candlelit Dinner on Your Balcony or Patio

Every apartment home at Vive at Kellswater features a private patio or balcony. Take your meal outdoors and enjoy an alfresco candlelit dinner. The extra touch of fresh air, twinkling city or pool views, and North Carolina’s gentle February climate will make your Valentine’s dinner memorable.

Bring out a bottle of wine or craft your own cocktails, pour into elegant glasses, and wrap up with a sweet dessert under the stars.

Plan a Game Night or Creative Activity

Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to be formal. Break out a fun board game, cards, or host a DIY craft night. Paint heart-themed canvases or write handmade cards to exchange with each other. These creative touches foster teamwork, laughter, and lasting memories.

If you’re with friends or roommates, a collaborative cook-off or group games create a joyful and festive energy throughout your home.

Host a Virtual Valentine’s Gathering

For those who want to include distant friends or family, set up a virtual party using your apartment’s high-speed internet. Share dinner over a video call, exchange virtual toasts, and play onli
