If your love language is physical touch…

Take them to a wheel throwing class in Sydney

Wheel throwing

As one of the most intimate and tactile forms, pottery requires total focus and coordination—much like relationships themselves! A wheel throwing class could be the perfect date idea for couples whose love language is physical touch. Simply step inside an intimate and cosy pottery studio at Print Paint Pot and sink your hands right into clay. You will be guided step-by-step through the process, from centering clay to moulding into your desired vessel. This pottery workshop provides couples with the chance to get their hands dirty while creating something beautiful together. This experience for couples is sure to help bring you closer to your partner on a whole new level. 

Something different than a dinner and a movie…

A fluid art bear class in Melbourne! 

Are you tired of the usual dinner-and-movie date night ideas? Melbourne has plenty to offer when it comes to unique experiences for couples. A popular option is a fluid art bear class at Bear with Us in North Melbourne. You and your special someone will be guided by professional artists who will teach you how to create stunning bear art using coloured paints. Mix your favourite colours, pour them all over your canvas and watch how the colours blend together to create stunning, abstract designs. So amazing! This creative, hands-on activity promises plenty of laughter and enjoyment—a perfect alternative for your at home date ideas.

The perfect date night for two…

Is definitely a ring making class in Brisbane

Ring making

For those looking for more personalised date ideas in Brisbane, we have something special up our sleeve—ring making classes! These jewellery workshops at Blonde. give you a unique opportunity to craft bespoke rings for each other under the guidance of experienced jewellers. Firstly, pick between gold or silver rings, then learn how to saw and solder rings to finish them off with your own unique touch. Engrave your initials and numbers (like your wedding anniversary date) or even decorate elements like your favourite flowers. The possibilities are endless to what you can create! By the end of the class, you can take home your own DIY rings to wear and cherish for years to come, making it one of the best couple gift ideas in Brisbane.

Looking for relaxing, mindful date ideas?

Head to a Sunshine Coast watercolour painting class together 

Watercolour painting

Combine mindfulness with creativity and you have one of the most relaxing date night ideas: a watercolour painting class on the Sunshine Coast. This is an excellent space to unwind together and create beautiful artwork for your home. Don’t know how to learn how to paint? No problem! Art Workshops in Montville is happy to teach couples the basics of watercolour painting and help them have plenty of fun with watercolour. The spontaneous nature of watercolours makes it easy to unleash creativity, blend colours and see the unexpected results you both make! Watercolour painting is also a great way to include moments of mindfulness in your day, which can help you both to relax, reduce stress and feel more refreshed after the class—all elements that can help strengthen your relationship.

If you both love a cosy night in… 

Learn to make soy wax candles in Tamborine Mountain
