Romantic Holidays in September
As summer gets ready to leave, make use of the last few warm days of the year with your partner. Or get ready to welcome the fall by celebrating the romantic holidays of September which will make you both fall in love with each other all over again.
September 5 - Labor Day and Be Late For Something Day
Observed as Labor Day in United States, the first Monday in September is actually a day to remember all those who work hard to provide various services and products to us. However you can turn this holiday which falls on September 5 this year into a romantic break by going for a long drive into the countryside or having a picnic in the park. Some cities have Labor Day parades and so if you and your partner like fun and festivities, go ahead and cheer the passing floats. Finally let this day also be an occasion to be thankful for all that your partner does around the house and outside for you. Interestingly September 5 is also Be Late For Something Day. Since this year it falls on the Labor Day holiday, have fun staying in bed with your partner till mid-morning. If you intend to be late for something else, let it be for something simple like lunch or a shopping expedition so that you don’t offend anyone for keeping them waiting.

September 6 - Rent a Movie Day
Continue the lazy momentum with Rent a Movie Day the very next day. Pick up your favorite flick from the neighborhood DVD rental or sign up with an online provider like Netflix.com. Make the screening extra special by arranging the furniture in the way of a movie theater or snuggling up with your partner on the couch. Don’t forget to keep some popcorn and soda around so that you both can have an authentic movie experience.
September 11 - Make Your Bed Day
This is Make Your Bed Day. So after you have arranged your bed in the morning, go ahead and unmake it with some fun and frolic with your partner so that you both can make it all over again.
September 13 - Celebrate Fortune Cookie Day
Celebrate Fortune Cookie Day today by going out on a dinner date and ordering Chinese. Let the exotic flavors and colors rouse your senses so that you cannot wait to get home and make love to your partner. But not before you have sampled the fortune cookies with your beloved and read out your predictions together. To make the date even more special, round off your meal with lovers’ fortune cookies which are actually chocolate covered fortune cookies each containing a romantic message. In fact this day would also be a perfect occasion to pop the question if you have been thinking of proposing to your beloved. Bake a batch of fortune cookies and let one of them contain a ring instead of a message. If this seems too much work for you, buy a set of fortune cookies from the confectioners but take out the message from one of them with a pair of tweezers and in its place put in the ring with which you intend to propose. And when your girlfriend breaks the cookie and finds the ring, get down on your knees and do the needful.
3rd week of September - Singles Week
The third week of September is devoted to all those who are yet to find the love of their lives. Celebrated as Singles Week, this is the perfect time to explore various ways of finding a partner. Each day of the week, decide to do something different to meet a likely candidate for your love life, like browsing your local library, hitting the gym, relaxing with a cup of latte at your favorite coffee shop, signing up with a dating website, grooving at a hip nightclub and so on. You are most likely to come across someone who is also looking for a soul-mate and even if you do not happen to meet someone within a week, take this as a stepping stone for a more involved course of partner-hunting. However if you like your unattached way of life, there are still loads of opportunity this week for some spicy conversation and harmless flirting with attractive members of the opposite sex.
September 18 - Thank You Day
Today is Thank You Day and so look for ways you can express your appreciation for all that your partner does for you. Send them flowers at their workplace, cook their favorite dinner or buy them a lovely gift. Each gesture would be sure to convey your gratitude to your beloved for all that they have enriched your life with and most of all for just being there for you.
September 21 - Miniature Golf Day
On Miniature Golf Day, head for the golf links with your partner. And even if you are not into the game in a very big way, decide to have a good time together. On the links get competitive with each other or team up with your partner to play against other couples. If you are doing the latter, make sure the winning partnership is treated to drinks by the other one. Or if you have been playing against your partner, decide to let the winner pick the next date. After all the real fun is when you plan one date so as to lead onto another.
End of September also heralds the arrival of fall. Even though there is no particular date to celebrate this season, plan a day outdoors doing something that you both enjoy. You could go on a hike and admire the changing colors of the landscape or you could take advantage of the last few sunny days to have a picnic in the park. In fact some clubs also organize nature walks, apple-picking and photography tours in order to experience the rich outdoor colors of autumn. So head out with your partner and make the most of the mellow sun and the rich taste of apple cider before winter takes over.
