Spend the Day in Houston — Day Date Ideas

Tired of the usual movie and dinner date? Sometimes it’s good to switch things up to keep you and your date from getting in a romance rut. 

Grab your lover and seize the day by planning one of these exciting day dates for an alternative to your normal dull routine.

Visit a Winery

A fun way to escape the stresses of the normal routine day is by taking an escape to a winery. 

Decant Urban Winery in Houston has an indoor renovated warehouse complete with a small patio, where you can take a tour, sample a few glasses of wine and enjoy a cheese platter.

Take a Cooking Class 

Taking a cooking class is a great way to bond together with your date. 

You can hone your culinary skills and enjoy the fruit of your labor at the end of your class. To make your date even more romantic and personal, why not try a private class? 

Take a Trip to the Day Spa

Treat you and your date to an afternoon at the spa to relieve the pressures of the work week. 

Enjoy champagne, couples massages, finest silk robes, and even facials for the ultimate relaxing experience.  

Coffee Date 

Picture this: you and your lover snuggled up at your favorite coffee shop, munching on each other’s favorite pastries. A coffee shop date is a great alternative when you’re not feeling like brunch. 

Even better, you can grab some good new reads from the bookstore before you go. 

Go Harvest Picking

In Houston, there are quite a few different local farms that you and your date can visit to pick blackberries, blueberries, strawberries, and even vegetables. It just depends on the season, but it’s a great way to spend the day outdoors. 

Take a Trip to the Houston Zoo

Feel like little kids again with this fun and light-hearted and easygoing date. At The Houston Zoo, you can give elephants a bath, paint alongside sea lions and create fun memories together. 

Rodeo Time 

For an ultimate Texas experience, a fun date idea is visiting the Texas rodeo. Because rodeos are held at different times throughout the year, this is a unique date idea you can do no matter what season it is. 

Horseback Riding 

Grab your horses and saddle up for a trail ride or even a jog on the beach. Horseback riding is the perfect way to spend a few hours with your date. 

To make things even more romantic, why not consider hiring a videographer beforehand to capture this precious memory that will last you a lifetime. 

Kayaking 

Kayak in the heart of Houston with this date idea. It’s the perfect budget-friendly idea for couples looking to do something active yet romantic. 

What could be more romantic than whispering sweet nothings to each other while kayaking down the Discovery Green Kinder Lake.
