- Not too far from the picnic setup, you notice the TV has been shifted to face the picnic site. A few of everyone's favorite films are stacked next to the DVD player, ready to be played. As you both cuddle up under a soft blanket, you clink your glasses together, toasting to a perfect night in.

Some tips:
- Keep the room temperature comfortable. You don't want to be too cold or too hot as you'll be sitting on the floor for a while. If you would like, consider creating a theme for the night, whether that's Parisian-chic with French food and films or 80s nostalgia with retro snacks and classic movies.
- Make sure to have a backup plan in case the technology doesn't cooperate, like having a selection of board games or interesting conversation starters on hand. Also, don't forget to switch off your phones or put them on silent to ensure uninterrupted quality time.
- Despite being indoors, this date can still be romantic and intimate. Use this opportunity to connect, communicate and enjoy each other's company. Keep the conversation going, talk about the film, share thoughts, and most importantly, have fun!
