6 Valentine’s Day Ideas Guaranteed to Create a Spark

Shopping for that special someone this Valentine’s Day and don’t know where to begin? Start right here in Prescott! Codi, our founder and director of partnerships has rounded up some of her favorite gift ideas for you!

If you're looking for a one-of-a-kind and exciting gift for someone special, look no further than The Spice Traveler. With a wide variety of unique and fun gifts, including the best kitchen items, spices, sugars, teas, and gadgets, you're sure to find something perfect for anyone on your list. (Editor’s note: The espresso sugar and lemon sugar are heaven-sent.)

For a Valentine's Day to remember, treat your special someone to a night of sophisticated culinary delight at Torme. The restaurant's cozy, intimate atmosphere provides the perfect backdrop for a romantic evening of conversation and quality time. Step into Chef Barry's world, and you'll find a diverse selection of modern Italian cuisine, including a rotating menu of homemade pasta dishes and sides made from locally sourced ingredients. Take in the ambiance of the intimate bistro tables surrounded by warm lamps, or settle into a quiet, elegant table indoors and let the world melt away. Torme promises an exceptional dining experience that will tantalize your taste buds and leave a lasting impression. Whether you're a foodie or simply in search of a memorable evening, Torme is the perfect choice for a Valentine's Day to remember!

Planning on an entire day with your special someone? Take a Saturday morning stroll through the Prescott Farmers Market, collecting fresh ingredients for dinner that evening. Some of the best, longest-lasting memories are made cooking and eating together in the kitchen. While you’re at the Farmers Market, don’t forget to stop by Camp Grounds Coffee so you can sip on a delicious warm latte while you peruse the market. Yes!

If you’re looking to get outside and burn a few calories prior to a big Valentine’s dinner, then consider a day hike up Thumb Butte. With its moderate incline and breathtaking views, it's the perfect way to get some exercise and create memories with your Valentine. The hike is not too strenuous, but it is enough to get the blood flowing and the appetite going. You will have some incredible views and photo opportunities on your way up. (Gotta get that IG shot!) The top of Thumb Butte would also be the perfect spot to pop the big question for any of you with a ring burning a hole in your pocket!

Brian here; this one is for the fellas. Codi has asked me to do the last of the Valentine’s ideas, and I have some gift ideas that will not break the bank but are guaranteed to get you A+ husband status. (At least for a few days.) Start by going to Cakes by Anne’s Valentine’s Day pre-order form HERE and ordering some custom goodies (or booking a Valentine’s Day baking class!). Next, head HERE for Florian Floral’s Valentine’s Day order form and pick out a custom bouquet for your special someone! Last but not least, complete the package by going to Primrose Board Co.’s order form HERE. I HIGHLY recommend a custom grazing platter or the Cakes by Ann and Primrose collab basket. That is my playbook for this Valentine’s Day. I hope it helps and thank you for supporting our local businesses!
