Are you running out of ideas of what to gift your loved one on Valentine’s Day? Not another year of socks and undies! As much as flowers and chocolates are great, we recommend sharing an experience that will last a lifetime. We summed up some of our favorite local experiences.
Here is a list of our top 5 favorite experiences to share:
1. Edwardian Ball

Wondering what that is? It is an elegant and whimsical celebration set in a re-imagined “Edwardian Era,” and has grown over the past nineteen years from an underground club party into an internationally recognized festival of the arts. The event is held on February 9th, so get your tickets before they sell out. Make sure to dress up!
2. PanAm Experience
Why go out of town, when you can go back in time with your love ? This experience hosts monthly dinner parties aboard an exact replica of a Boeing 747, decked out just like Pan Am flights were laid out in the 1970’s. Enjoy the plush and comfortable seats, dinner served on fine china, and sipping cocktails on the plane lounge.
3. Universal Studios
Because, it never gets old! Don’t forget to get an express pass.
4. The Naked at the Getty Scavenger Hunt
This adults-only, nudity-hunting scavenger hunt at the Getty (held the weekend of V-Day) is a comical two-hour quest that has guests searching for answers to riddle-like questions such as: “Who painted a gal who may soon suffer a heart attack?” No previous art knowledge is required.
5. The Wine Train Experience
Get swept off your feet and whisked away, down the track through one of the most romantic places in the world: Napa Valley. Onboard an elegant train with elegant interiors and polished, personalized service. An intimate, unforgettable experience full of elegance and romance, the perfect gift to share with your Valentine. A journey of discovery, when taken together, is so much more.
If you missed your chance in Paris, you can add you lock on the love lock bridge in Napa!
