Married Fun has all the date ideas! Read on to see all our date ideas tagged with "day". Mix up your next date night with these awesome activities. For the full experience make sure you check out the Married Fun Date Planner.
Zipline $$ - $$$
A zipline can get your adrenaline flowing like nothing else can. If you're on a high mountain top, then it's going to be a wild ride down. Ziplines are addictive and don't be surprised if you want to do it more than once. Try to enjoy the view while you're going down the zipline. It might be difficult at first if you're afraid of heights, but the view is almost always spectacular. The ride usually doesn't last very long, but it's those seconds to a few minutes of heart-pounding excitement that people find so addictive. The thrill of being so high up there and the speed that you get to the other side makes it so incredibly fun.
Emergency Preparedness free - $$$
Prepping has taken a life of its own in recent years. Many people take emergency preparedness seriously, and they do everything they can to be prepared in case something happens. How prepared are you for an emergency? A fun date idea is to go through your home and see what you need to improve on. If you don't know where to start, check out https://www.ready.gov/ or other online resources. You'll be surprised by the areas that you lack preparedness in. You can also make a list of things that you need to buy or do for the next date night when you take things a step further. The world can be a crazy place sometimes, why not put in a little effort getting yourselves prepared?
Driving free - $$
Going for a nice relaxing drive is a great way to spend some quality time with your spouse. Hitting the open road offers up many opportunities for conversation and closeness that you otherwise would not be able to obtain on your own. A driving date can consist of taking a stroll through town or hitting the road and taking the highway and seeing where it ends up. A driving date is made even more enjoyable if you go out for a bite to eat. You can visit a drive-in restaurant or get fast food and eat it in your car. Sometimes a great way to end a driving date is to find a secluded area and relax while listening to music and allow the conversation to go wherever it may. Who knows, you might even be able to sneak a kiss while you're parked.
Pet Store free - $$$$
Pet stores are a lot of fun for many different reasons, so going to one is a great date idea. If you have a pet, then take it along with you if the store allows it. Take a walk and get some exercise along with your furry friend. If you don't have a pet, walk around the pet store and consider buying one. If you're a newly married couple, you might be surprised by what type of pet your partner chooses. Sometimes the funniest thing to do is to look around at the pets and see which one looks like your spouse. You'll both burst out laughing when you tell the other which animal you think they look like.
Handball $ - $$
Sporty couples and those seeking to get more exercise in their lives should consider a handball date. Handball can mean different things to different people, depending on where they live. In the U.S. handball is another name for the game called wallball or American handball. This is a really simple game that only requires a small rubber ball and a wall and it can be played fine with just 2 people. If you're a competitive couple who likes to challenge each other, give handball a try. In other parts of the world handball is a team sport that you're more likely to watch on TV. It's sort of like soccer, but you use your hands instead of your feet to get the ball into the goal and can be very exciting to watch.
Cabin $$$$
A weekend in a cabin is a great way to get away from all the stresses that life has to offer. Rent a cabin for a couple of nights, bring some food, and enjoy being away from city life. You should spend time with each other and turn off any electronic devices that might get in the way of your enjoyment. Couples need time to bond and to be together, and there is no better way to do it than by being in the middle of nowhere. Take walks through nature in between meals and enjoy being in each other's presence.
Home Automation free - $$
We are living in an increasingly automated world. There are several household tasks that you can automate. Did you know some robots can vacuum your floors? You can set up the lights to turn on so that your house isn't dark when you come home. You can even automate the coffee brewing process, so you have a fresh cup in the morning. With a smart thermostat you can control the temperature in your house by the sound of your voice or hundreds of miles away. Don't you think it's about time that machines helped improve the quality of your life? Turn it into a date and find new appliances and turn your home into a place that only the Jetsons could've envisioned.
Motocross $ - $$
There are two typical ways that you can turn motocross into a date, and they are by watching it on television or attending an event in person. If you're fortunate enough to go to a motocross sporting event, it will definitely be a date you never forget. Watching it on television can be just as much fun considering you can make your own snacks to eat while enjoying the races. If you're really a big-time motocross fan, you can whip up some snacks with your favorite driver's number on them. Take a little extra money with you on your motocross date so you can buy a souvenir, so you always have something to remember the evening by.
Would You Rather? free
Would You Rather is a fun game with all kinds of questions. Just type in "Would You Rather questions" in Google, and you'll find plenty of sites with questions on them. Also, you can find quite a few YouTube videos that provide lots of questions. The answers that you give are what make this game so much fun. You'll learn things about your spouse that you had no idea about. Some of the questions are so off the wall that it is impossible not to learn something new and interesting about them. If you enjoy your first date like this, plan another in the future and plan ahead by having new questions ready.
Virtual Tours free
There are undoubtedly places all over the world that you'd like to go, but can't for one reason or the other. You may have always dreamed of seeing the pyramids in Egypt, but aren't able to. Going on a virtual tour is the next best thing, and it can be done in the comfort of your home. Both of you need to sit in front of the computer and then allow the magic of the internet to do its thing. Before long, you'll feel like you're right there, seeing the sights and sounds that you've always wanted to experience. For added fun, whip up some dishes eaten by the locals of the people native to where you're taking the tour. You'll then be able to see, hear, and taste the area, bringing it even closer to home.
Hunting $ - $$$
The great outdoors is where many couples like to spend their time on a date. The act of hunting in itself is an excellent way for two people to get closer. You've got to have a keen eye when it comes to finding prey to hunt down. The two of you will have to be in tune with your surroundings. You can't ignore each other when you are a part of the wilderness. The closeness you share while out in the middle of nowhere will increase your bond strength. Also, if you're able to bag something, then you'll have fresh meat for dinner.
T-shirt Design free - $$$
The fun thing about t-shirt design is that you can turn your hobby into a business. Brainstorm and try to come up with as many funny, witty, or off-the-wall t-shirt slogans and designs as possible. The two of you can even have a competition to see who sells the most shirts if you sell your shirts online. A really fun way to always remember your date is to design a shirt specifically for the moment. You'll have a memento of your enjoyable experience that you can cherish for a lifetime. Make sure you print up a shirt for each of you to wear out to your next great date.
Video Games free - $
There are two great ways to play video games - you can hit up your local arcade or you can play games at home. If you have a game console, then go ahead and make the most of it. If not, don't sweat it, since you can use your smartphone to play games. The two of you can take turns and see who does better. You'll be surprised by how involved you are in the other's gameplay. It won't be long until you are jerking back in excitement when your spouse jumps on the ledge or has an ill-fated encounter with a bad guy. If your game collection is old and boring try renting a few new games or finding free games to play on your phone, tablet or PC.
Homeless Shelter free
Being able to help your local homeless population is something that many people strive to do. Sadly, there will always be homeless people who need a place to stay. Someone has to volunteer to work at the shelters, and it's an excellent opportunity for a date. A date working at a homeless shelter? Why not? You are giving back to the community and also spending time together. There is no better way to enjoy each other's company while doing something positive. Many of the people you help will go on to live productive lives. The help you give them will have a ripple effect that lasts generations. For many, homelessness is the result of circumstances that are out of their control, and your help will change their lives forever.
Halloween Party free - $$$
A Halloween party is a date that enables you to show off your creative side. If you're throwing the party yourselves start with making some spooky invitations. Search online or even make up your own Halloween games. If you're the type of couple who likes to make your own costumes, your party will even be more exciting. It doesn't matter if you buy or make your costume, what does matter is that you're enjoying this fabulous time of year. Make sure to snap a few photographs of both of you in your costumes to remember this date for years to come. It might also be a good idea to take pictures of everyone so you can always remember the party you threw on Halloween.
Jewelry Making free - $$$$
Jewelry making is as much of a skill as it is an art form. It's hard to imagine that it's possible to turn a date into a work of art. You can do just that when you make jewelry. If the two of you are into fashion, then jewelry making is an acceleration of what you already love. Turn your date into profit or show off your hard work when you're out and about. Either way, you'll not only have something you can show from your date, but you'll gain insightful knowledge on how to do something in a highly profitable trade. Making jewelry for each other can be a great way to give each other mementos and fun conversation starters among friends, family and even strangers at the grocery store.
Magic Show $ - $$$
Magic shows aren't just for kids, and they are the perfect date for the couple who needs to get out of the house. You will love seeing the look of surprise on your spouse's face when something outrageous happens. If you want to have a really exciting time, sit in the front row of the magic show. Magicians often ask for volunteers out of the front row. All the way home, you both will ask each other how the magician performed their tricks. All of the tricks that you see will be on the tip of your tongue for quite some time until you learn how they pulled them off.
Celebrating Anything free - $$
You don't need an excuse to turn anything into a celebration. You could be celebrating a holiday, a birthday, or anything. Turn your celebration into a date to make it even more enjoyable. How do you celebrate? That's the fun part, and you can make it up as you go along. Why not create your own holiday and be creative in how you celebrate it. What you want to do more than anything is to have a good time. Any excuse to get together and set aside some time is well worth it in the end. Turn Saturday or the full moon into a holiday and celebrate it until you're out of energy. You might just invent some fun traditions for you to share with your family and friends.
Happy Hour $ - $$
Quite a few couples think that going to a bar or restaurant during happy hour is all about discounted drinks. You will find that quite a few establishments offer discounted appetizers and also meals during this time. If you don't drink, it's no big deal because you can get a great deal on finger foods and sometimes meals. A happy hour date with your spouse is all about letting your hair down and enjoying the moment. Eat some chicken wings, talk about how work has been going, and enjoy being in the presence of the person you love more than anyone else. Happy hour is about, well, being happy, and that's the attitude you should have while enjoying your date.
Roller Derby $ - $$
Going to a roller derby is a classic date experience that never goes out of style. Nothing is more exciting than watching people on roller skates go around in a circle while trying their best to ransack their opponents. Anyone who has ever seen a roller derby knows there is no greater form of excitement than watching these talented, athletic individuals pound the living daylights out of each other. Try to find souvenirs such as t-shirts or other things at the roller derby so you have a trinket you can take home with you to remember your date by. If the roller derby sells DVDs of the event, try to snag one so you have a video of your date that you can watch later on to remember how much fun you had.
Antique Shops free - $$$$
Going to antique shops is a fun way to spend an afternoon for any couple. You don't need to buy any antiques to make your date a success. Antiquing has grown in popularity over the years, and now there are more shops devoted to collecting items from the past. If the two of you share the same interests, it's even more fun because you can spot items both of you might want to purchase. Try your hand at haggling and do your best to get items for as cheaply as possible. Haggling is a part of the antique shopping experience, and it's sure to add a little flair to your date.
Dance Classes $ - $$
Attending dance classes is a great date idea for many different reasons. First off, dancing is fun. It's also an excellent exercise, and it's in some cases better than going to the gym. Dancing also promotes intimacy between the two of you. Dancing is something that you and your spouse can do for the rest of your life. What you learn today in the classes you'll be able to do for years down the line. A dancing class date will get you out of the house, you'll be near other couples, and you'll enjoy yourself. The greatest thing about learning how to dance is, it's something you can do at home. Turn on some music, get close, and slow dance while allowing yourselves to live in the moment. Your dance classes will take a life of their own, which is why this is such a fantastic date idea.
Video Editing free - $$
If you have videos of friends or family, they might benefit from a little editing. Holiday videos are fun to share, but they can have quite a bit of dead air. Why not set up a date where you go through the videos and edit them? Pop yourself a bowl of popcorn, plop down in front of the computer, and have a good time going back and watching how much fun you had. You'll get to relive the moments while also preserving them for others to enjoy. You don't need to be a video editing whiz, do your best to present the fun you had while recording it.
Photography free - $$$$
Photography is a fun hobby that you can share with your spouse. The enjoyable aspect of having a photography date isn't only taking the pictures but also finding interesting locations. If you have camera equipment great, but if you don't, then it's no big deal. The camera on your smartphone is probably good enough for taking amateur pictures. Try your best to scour your local area for the most exciting photo opportunities. If you really want to take your photography date to the next level, share your pictures on social media. The two of you will love to see how many people like your photos and to read the comments left by your followers.
Couples / Marriage Retreat $$$ - $$$$
Couples retreats aren't only for married couples who are going through rough patches in their relationships. A couple's retreat offers guidance and advice that any couple can make use of. Some retreats last a weekend or longer, and it's like you're on vacation. The nice thing about going on a retreat is that you get to spend time together. All relationships require work, and this is a great date idea that you can use to strengthen yours. There is no such thing as the perfect relationship, and everyone can benefit from the teachings of a couple's retreat getaway.
21 Questions free - $
Playing 21 questions isn't only a fantastic date idea; it's also a great way of getting to know your spouse a little better. It doesn't matter how long you've been married; there's still plenty of stuff for the two of you to learn about each other. You can find the 21 questions to ask by searching for them on the internet. Alternatively, you can also make up your own 21 questions. Why not order a pizza and munch on it while answering the questions? If it's a beautiful day outside, pack a lunch, head to the park, and answer all the questions while taking in some fresh air and sun.
Medieval Festival $$ - $$$
Going to a medieval festival is an excellent idea if you're the type of couple that likes to dress up. A knight in shining armor and a princess is what you two were meant to be. If you're not in the mood to dress up, then it's no big deal, you can still go to look at the costumes. Time has a way of harkening back to another era when you walk through the gates of a medieval festival. You'll see what life was like, how people dressed, and maybe even hear some of the old-time lingoes if you're lucky. Check out the shows and displays and pick something out from one of the shops to remember your fun medieval festival date.
Bubble Bath free - $$
One bathtub plus the two of you equals a magical evening. Light some candles, turn on some soft relaxing music and soak in a luxurious bubble bath. Allow yourselves to melt away in the sheer elegance of the warm water and the suds. Bubble baths are a great way to connect if you've been away for far too long. The two of you will be in the bathtub together so close that talking is a must. Feeding each other chocolates or fruit can add to the romantic undercurrents of taking a bubble bath together. This is definitely a great activity to indulge in from time to time with your spouse.
Fun & Games
Ice blocking is, by far, one of the most unique dates a married couple will ever encounter. What is ice blocking? Ice blocking is where you sit on a block of ice and slide down a hill on it. Think of ice blocking like you were sledding, except you're on a block of ice, and there is no snow. You will have to buy or make a block of ice that is big enough to sit on to slide down the hill. You don't need anything other than the ice and a folded up towel to sit on, which makes this date idea fairly simple and cheap. Try to go down the hill as many times as you can before the ice melts.
Carousel free - $
A ride on a carousel never ends with just one go around. The two of you will enjoy yourself so much that you'll want to do it again and again. Take a ride on the carousel together, and then do it separately. Take pictures and make videos of each other on the carousel. It's hard not to have fun when you're doing something that instantly brings you back to your childhood. It won't be surprising if your carousel date ends up being something you do yearly. There is no age limit on how much fun you can have while on a carousel, and that's why it makes for a perfect date night activity. Be sure to snap a few selfies for fun reminders of a great night.
Home Videos free - $
There are two ways you can have fun with a home video date, and the first one is by creating home videos. You're only limited by your creativity when it comes to what you can do in your videos. It's also fun to watch the videos that you've already made, either years ago or just recently. Pop some popcorn, get your favorite fizzy drink, and enjoy going back through memory lane. Today everyone has a smartphone in their pocket, and people love to make videos. A home video date is as close as cuddling up with each other on the couch and pulling out your phone to watch videos.
Local Festival free - $$$
Festivals come around every year, and they offer an excellent opportunity for the perfect date. Set aside a few dollars to have yourself a good time when the festival is in town. Sometimes festivals are free, which means you won't need to shell out any money to go on a date there. But, you'll probably want to buy something to eat or at the very least a souvenir. Make sure to wear comfortable shoes since you'll probably do quite a bit of walking while you're at the festival. Local festivals are great because you get to enjoy everything that makes your community the wonderful place that it is.
Hang Gliding / Paragliding $$ - $$$
Hang gliding and paragliding offer what, for many, is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to explore their wild side. As a couple, there are undoubtedly things you want to cross off the list of things that you want to do. Hang gliding is on the list for many, and it's one of the most exciting things you'll ever do. Seeing the world from above while experiencing the freedom that only a bird enjoys is a thrilling experience. There are few dates that a married couple can go on that produce that type of long-lasting memories that hang gliding can. Find a beautiful location, prepare to be amazed, and take turns enjoying the stunning beauty of the earth.
Snowman free - $
Building a snowman is a great wintertime date that will create memories that will last a lifetime. Decorate your snowman with all types of festive apparel, and don't forget to give him a carrot nose. Keep your smartphone handy so that you can snap a few pictures of the snowman to share on social media and remember your wintery date. If you really want to have a splendid snowman building date, have a cup of hot chocolate and a few cookies waiting for you after being done outside. Nothing warms your bones like a cup of hot chocolate, and a few cookies are the best way to end your date on a sweet note.
Farmers Market free - $$
Going to the farmers market is one of the best ways to eat healthy while maintaining a budget. Also, shopping at a farmers market helps support local farmers who are always in need of more customers. A fun thing to do is to walk through the farmer's market and try to spot things that the other doesn't. You can also try to find one thing that neither of you has ever tried before. Buy the items and try it either on the spot or take it home if it needs to be cooked, peeled or prepared. You can spend several hours at the farmers market, and it's a great place to connect with the people who produce the food you eat. Being as close to farm to table as possible is a great thing, and your farmers market date will enable you to do just that.
Tubing free - $
Tubing is an outdoor adventure that is as exciting as it is beautiful. Tubing can refer to sliding down a hill in the snow, floating down the river or being pulled behind a boat in a lake. In either case you get to enjoy the great outdoors while sliding, floating along or rushing through the water. If you're being pulled behind a boat you can be pulled at the same time, or you can go individually to watch each other. Tubing can be a ton of fun whether you're getting wet, flying down a hill or just lazily floating along. If you've done everything you can think of as a couple outside, chances are pretty good tubing is one of the few things you haven't done. Every couple, regardless if you like the outdoors or not, should go tubing at least once.
Frisbee free - $
Frisbee is a fun sport that requires two people and almost no talent at all. If you're new to playing frisbee, stand near each other while throwing the disc back and forth. The better you get at playing, the further apart the two of you should stand. When you get really good is when the real fun starts because you can do all kinds of tricks. Watch YouTube videos on how to improve your frisbee game so that this doesn't turn out to be a one-time date thing and nothing else. Frisbee is a lot of fun, it gets you out in the sun and fresh air, and there's also plenty of exercise involved.
Ultimate / Ultimate Frisbee free - $
Ultimate frisbee is a game similar to soccer, but instead of a ball, it uses a frisbee. If you know of another married couple that likes to go out on double dates, ultimate frisbee is an excellent activity to do. You can either play against the other couple or team up according to sexes. The men on one team and the women on another if that's the route you want to go. If you want to play by yourselves, it's possible, but a little less fun. It might be more fun to see who can score by throwing the frisbee in the goal from the furthest distance.
Camping free - $$$
Camping is more than just a few hour date, it's something that takes most of the day or more. Camping can be free or a low-cost dating idea that gets you away from it all. If you're the type that likes to live off the land, then camping is a fantastic date idea. You can go hiking, enjoy the fresh air, and spend every waking minute with each other. Many couples who enjoy the great outdoors feel that camping strengthens their relationship, and they notice stronger lines of communication after the camping adventure is over. Established campgrounds offer a way for inexperienced campers to have access to things such as running water, toilets, and other amenities that some might consider a necessity even when roughing it. Either way you go, camping is a fun date idea, especially for married couples.
Window Shopping free
Window shopping is a fun thing to do if you live in a city with an active downtown. Back in the day, people used to love to go window shopping to see what all the stores were selling. There are several great things about window shopping, and one of them is that it gets you plenty of exercise. Make sure you've got your smart watch or pedometer on so you get credit for all the walking you'll do. Where there are stores, there are always places to eat. Turn your window shopping date into something even more incredible by taking a break and getting a bite to eat. Put aside a little money in case you see something while window shopping that catches your eye. The stores are quite crafty, and they know what to put in their window to trigger people to come in and buy something.
