Do you have a list of fun things you want to do together? If you don’t have one yet, use this fun couples bucket list that will bring you two closer.
Every couple, whether you’ve only been dating for a few months, or you’ve been together for years, should have a couples bucket list of fun and exciting things they want to do together.
We’re not talking about boring stuff, saving to buy a house, getting a
mortgage, or settling down. We are talking about fun, amazing
adventures, silly days where you laugh your socks off, and cozy, imitate
evenings where you truly get to know one another.
Couples bucket list: 20 couple things you have to do right away
We think these 20 suggestions should be on every couple’s bucket
list, but if you don’t want to do them all, just pick the ones that you
know you or your partner will just love, and set aside some time to do
them – your relationship will be all the better for it!
#1 Tour your favorite city. This could be the city
you already live in, or somewhere you have always wanted to go. Be
tourists for the day, take in all the sites and talk about what it is
you love about those particular places.
#2 Turn off your phones and computers and have a tech-free day.
Sometimes, it is easy to spend entire evenings staring mindlessly at
the TV, playing with your phones and barely saying a word to one another
– get back to the simpler times, where good conversation was what held a
relationship together! Put your gadgets aside for the day and enjoy
each other’s company.
#3 Find a place that’s ‘yours.’
Having a little spot that’s just for the two of you can be so romantic.
Pick a favorite cafe, bar or park bench somewhere and make it a place
that you visit regularly to spend some quality time together.
#4 Get good double date friends. While spending time
with your partner is fantastic, it’s nice to have another couple you
can do fun things with, whether that’s heading out for dinner or going
on holiday, having a great double date couple that you both love is a
good idea.
#5 Build a pillow fort. There is nothing better than
releasing your inner child and getting all snuggly with the person that
you love. When it doesn’t look too appealing outside, get some snacks,
build your pillow fort and enjoy having some cozy cuddles together.
#6 Have a pillow fight. When you’re done with the fort and you’ve scratched this off your couples bucket list, it’s playtime! Have a good old-fashioned pillow fight for even more silly fun.
#7 Play 20 questions. This is a
great way to get to know your partner even better. Find out everything
you’ve ever wanted to in this fun game.
#8 Make up your own game. Having stuff just the two
of you share is what makes you feel close and connected. Making up a fun
and silly game that the two of you play together is great fun, both to
make and to play!
#9 Road Trippppp! Taking a road trip together has to
be done. The more spontaneous you can make it, the better. Just simply
grab a bag of clothes, jump in the car and see where the mood takes you.
If you prefer to plan, then plot an exciting route that sees you stop
off at some awesome places on the way. These adventures are the kind of
activities that you’ll both remember and cherish forever.
#10 Have a weekly date night. Establishing a regular
date night is important to keep the romance alive. Making sure you
spend some time being romantic and putting some effort in is so
important, and so easily lost if you don’t keep it up. Making a date
night and ensuring you stick to it means you’ll always spend quality
time together.
#11 Read a book to each other. Being read to is one
of life’s simple pleasures – it’s so relaxing and a lovely thing to do
for your other half. You could take it in turns to read a book to one
another or read a chapter each so you both get to fully enjoy the story.
#12 Make the ultimate playlist. Make a huge playlist
of songs you both love and that have memories attached to them. This is
something that you’ll never get tired of, and can add to throughout the
years.
#13 Go to a place you have never been. Experiencing
something new together is wonderful. Find out all the places your
partner has been to and then plan a trip – somewhere you are both dying
to visit, and go make some memories.
#14 Make a plan. Write down everything that you want
to achieve, both in your relationship and as individuals, and then make
a plan of how you are going to work together to make all your dreams
come true.
#15 Write to one another. Writing letters is a dying
art and there is nothing more wonderful than receiving a handwritten
letter from someone you love. If you and your partner don’t live
together or the next time one of you goes away, why not write and mail
letters to one another as a lovely romantic surprise? Or simply write
the letters and hand them to one another at home – it will still be a
lovely thing to do.
#16 Take on a physical challenge together. Be it
running a marathon or climbing a mountain, taking on a physical
challenge together, and succeeding, is a great way to cement your
relationship and this definitely is one of those milestones in your couples bucket list.
Sharing the struggles and overcoming whatever obstacles you may face
together, and the sense of achievement and pride once it’s over is a
beautiful thing to be able to share.
#17 Volunteer together. Doing something good for
other people will give you both a sense of great satisfaction. So why
not volunteer at a dog rescue center, help in a soup kitchen or get in
touch with community projects that could do with your assistance? You’ll
not only be doing good for others, but will also feel closer by working
together to help bring happiness to another person’s life.
#18 Make your own traditions. Create something new with your couples bucket list,
be it that you go for a sea swim on the first day of every month, or
you have random gift day once a year where you surprise your partner
with something silly, coming up with new traditions that you make up
together is a lovely way to enjoy your time together.
#19 Take up a new hobby together. Having shared interests is important in a relationship, so why not try to find a hobby that you both love?
#20 Go to IKEA together. It is a well known fact
that a trip to IKEA will determine whether or not your relationship can
stand the test of time! So if you are feeling brave enough, head to IKEA
together. If you end up drinking miniature wine, eating meatballs and
spending way too much money, then you have done well. If you find
yourself weeping and alone in the bathroom section – perhaps not.
These 20 suggestions should be on every couples bucket list – so get out there and enjoy every single moment together!
