Does Your Swimming Pool Have Plans This Valentine’s Day?

February has the most romantic day of the year. As Valentine’s day quickly approaches, a plethora of ideas come to mind on how to have the most fulfilling date with your significant other, some friends and acquaintances.

Rather than opting to do the traditional outing at some overpopulated 5-star restaurant surrounded by strange faces, why not create an intimate setting for you and your lover right from the comfort of your backyard? A dinner for two by the pool lights or some bottles of champagne and fine wine on ice, whatever your choice is, you can make it happen right from your pool.

Now that we have concluded that your pool has plans, here are 4 inexpensive ways to create a romantic treat for your lover this valentine’s day. Before starting on any of these, contact a pool renovation expert in Orlando to ensure that your pool is in the right shape.

1. Start with the flowers

This is one of the most basic and easiest introductions that you can do in about 5 to 10 minutes. Using flowers to adorn your pool can be as basic as scattering some petals of rose to float on the surface of the pool. Another more involving idea is to arrange some fancy flowers in a uniform manner. You can float the flowers at the edges or anywhere else using a bubble wrap underneath each bouquet to keep them floating and staying upright. Be sure to pick something she likes.

2. Then the Candles

You could as well have guessed this one. There is hardly ever a complete romantic experience without the right lighting and if there’s one things candles do best, its light. For this trick, opt to use tea light candles. These may be costly but are readily available anywhere you check. Their case is also strengthened by the gorgeous display that accompanies the reflection of their lights off the water.

Use these candles to float in the pool, make a love shaped monogram, adorn the dinner table and pathway to bring all the romantic vibes. A wise precaution is to ensure that you place your candles out of reach of anything that can catch fire and if you have pets around, be sure to leave them in a separate area.

3. And the balloons

Get some balloons with colors that compliments the area. Blow up your balloons and simply leave them around the pool and in the water, they’ll float on their own. If you have a sizeable pool and would like to save your lungs for all the kissing to come, use helium to inflate the balloons and try to weight the end of the strings down to ensure they aren’t flying around. Again, it would be great to check the wind again beforehand. When buying the balloons, go for the trendy oversized round ones.

4. Bring the music

Some John Legend or Ed Sheeran never does any harm. Collect a playlist of your lover’s favorite tracks to make the setting more intimate. No need for anything major, some home speakers will do the trick and be sure to keep the music low for all the right notes to come through.

There you have it. These 4 tips will get your pool all ready for the February 14 date. And if you are single like me with a big pool and no lover to share with, now would be the best time to call the boys for the pool party with the drinks and barbecue flying around.

Again, irrespective of the plans you have, one way to keep away some embarrassment is to speak to a pool renovation expert in Orlando to ensure your pool is in good shape. Ensure that they check for leakages, water condition and cleanliness.
