Valentine’s Day: It’s Not Just for the Kids, Remember?
There’s glitter everywhere. Glue sticks and heart stickers are strewn all over your kitchen counter. A sea of red and pink envelopes you. Your children are making Valentines. Yay. While they cut and glue on repeat, asking you every five seconds how to spell each kids’ name in their class, you dream of a simpler time. A time when Valentine’s Day was a little more adult. More wine, less glitter.
We at Seacoast Moms Blog want to bring back that simpler time this year. We’ve designed what we think is an ideal Seacoast Valentine’s Day — with giveaways to boot! So sit back, relax and imagine this holiday with just a little more glamour.
A Seacoast Valentine’s Day Designed With You In Mind
Step 1: Primp
One of our favorite spots for primping is in York, Maine. Owned by Seacoast mom Kimberlee Smith, Coastal Aesthetics Medi-Spa does everything from skin rejuvenation to hair removal — covering all your bases this Valentine’s Day. They offer complimentary evaluations for all treatments and work with you to help create a customized program that fits your individual needs. From Botox to Juvederm, micro-needling to full laser services, Coastal Aesthetics can guide you through the process of maintaining a youthful and healthier appearance.
The team at CA is generously giving away lash tint treatments to two lucky readers in addition to one laser bikini treatment! Enter on our Facebook page to win!
Step 2: Gift
Nothing beats flowers on Valentine’s Day. Whether from a friend or your spouse, flowers are an incredible gift, particularly in the wintry Seacoast. If you’re looking for an amazing florist in the Seacoast, look no further than Cymbidium Floral in Exeter. Also mama-owned by Jessica Christoferson, this shop specializes in unusual fresh flowers. Jessica hand picks the flowers each week at the New England Flower Exchange where flowers arrive from all around the world.
Cymbidium Floral is giving away a rich and romantic Valentine’s day arrangement (a $50 value). It’s their pick for an alternative to roses and will take your breath away! Head over to Facebook to enter.
Step 3: Dine
Last but not least, Valentine’s Day is a perfect reason to hit the town and celebrate. Whether you’re with girlfriends or that special someone, February 14th is a night to indulge! Our pick this year for the perfect Seacoast Valentine’s Day dinner is Row 34, located in the heart of Portsmouth. Famous for its local oysters and incredible bar, this restaurant offers a chic atmosphere perfect for a special night.
We are thrilled that Row 34 is giving away a $100 gift certificate to one lucky reader! Don’t miss the chance to enter this amazing raffle.
