Over-the-top date night ideas that can keep your boo on the edge of their seats and give you two something to talk about for a long time are here. Dinner and a movie can get a bit monotonous, so why not change it up a bit?
When planning a date, consider where your date’s interests lie and gear the date toward those. Forget scary adventures that make them feel like they won’t make it back home (one of these is pretty close to the edge for me). Instead, show them how well you know them by planning something you know they’d like. The list below is meant to get your creative juices flowing. You’ll still have to figure out how to get to these destinations and maybe even hotel reservations if everything goes smoothly.

1. Beverly Hills
This might be my favorite over-the-top date idea. LA and Beverly Hills are known for their beautiful people. Come spend a day or evening here on the perfect LA date.
Take your date on over to Rodeo Drive and shop in stores like Hermès, Dior Homme, House of Bijan and Tiffany & Co. Score a VIP experience at one of these shops and be invited to their patios or private rooms for some bubbly while you shop.
After shopping, what better way to relax with your date than to enjoy some time at the Ciel Spa. Enjoy IV and Oxygen treatments, facials, massages and body wraps at this beautiful, Beverly Hills spa.
2. Vegas
Dinner and dancing takes on a meaning of it’s own in Las Vegas. Sin City is already known for it’s wild lights and exaggerated antics.
Get well acquainted with the MGM Grand, Las Vegas by going to dinner and dancing at this Vegas strip staple.
Have a romantic dinner at Joël Robuchon. Revel in the quiet and personal attention this restaurant offers, as well as the French cuisine, before heading off to the famous Hakkasan nightclub.
With acts like Lil Jon, Pauly B and more, you will be sure to have music you can move to at Hakkasan. Drinks are flowing and the people are here to dance. Grab your date and hit the dance floor, this is your time to start getting that chemistry going. Hit up the 3rd floor VIP if you want a break from all the people.
3. Miami
Take your date on a day of fun on the water in a private, 150 foot yacht. Rent with Yacht Life and impress your guest with the onboard jacuzzi.
Keep them entertained with all of the toys the 150 foot Richmond has: jet skis, blow up floats, wakeboard, snorkel gear and more.
When it’s time to change for lunch, take your choice from 6 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms on the boat. Bring another couple (or 6), the capacity is 12 on this gorgeous vessel decorated with mahogany and satin.
Date day may never be the same after being spoiled by the crew in Miami. Book right through their website for an experience of true luxury.
4. Earth
Take your date on the ride of a lifetime. Instead of hitting up Space Mountain at Disney, join Virgin Galactic and take your date’s breath away with their (and probably your) first space flight.
Put on your spacesuits (provided by Virgin Galactic in partnership with Under Armour) and get into your spacecraft. Then, what looks like Siamese jets, take your spaceship to their highest cruising altitude and your spaceship is detached from the jets. You are then blasted beyond earth’s atmosphere at over 2,500 miles per hour.
Ride in a spaceship and get launched into the sky on this 90 minute flight. See the earth in a whole new way with through the 17 windows on the spacecraft.
Come back to earth a new person and part of the elite community of Virgin Galactic astronauts. You’ll always be invited to community events and activities from then forward.
