Skip and Steve's Tips on Keeping Your Romance Alive

Right after you're married, and long after, we want to help you keep the flames of love burning. So here are some of Skip and Steve's "After I Do" tips for keeping the romance alive.

  • Write "I Love You" on the bathroom mirror with a piece of soap.

  • Fill her car with balloons

  • Send a card-a-day for a week - or a month.

  • Leave unexpected love notes on the refrigerator.

  • Go dancing. This is one of the first things to go once a couple "settles down" and gets married. Yet, it's one of the most fun activities you can share, if both of you enjoy dancing.

  • Give flowers that match his/her eyes.

  • Do you have kids? Get a charm bracelet with a charm for each child.

  • The Treasure Hunt - Send your mate on a treasure hunt for a present. Leave stick-on notes on refrigerators, mirrors, or doors leading to the present. Have one last note wrapped inside the present leading straight to you.

  • Watch the sun rise - or set - together.

  • Breakfast ... or dinner, in bed.

  • Frame a favorite poem.

  • Take an art class together.

  • Go on a mystery date. Make all the arrangements. Then whisk him/her away for an unexpected day or two.
