While there is an endless list of activities that you can do on a date, nothing will compare to the feeling of being able to sweep him or her off his or her feet. One fun way to do so is by surprising your partner in the place where you two feel most relaxed and comfortable: the bedroom.

Low lighting can help spike up romance and make any place more intimate. This makes candles classic staples for room surprise decorations. While real candles are great go-to items for this, their flames can be dangerous especially when accidentally left lit. Opt for alternatives instead and try LED Flameless Candle Lights. If switched on, the battery-operated candles flicker like a real candle. Its candle color is white and the flame color is yellow—just like a real candle—but these ones are not only flameless but also smokeless and mess-free!
