Gentlemen, wine and dine her for your Valentine’s date night this year by taking her out for a nice, romantic dinner at Trio’s in Trussville. Create your own pizza or calzone, have a tasty steak dinner for two, or simply order a variety of appetizers to share. For dessert, share a slice of Italian cream cake or split a brownie delight. The possibilities are endless at Trio’s.
After dinner, take your sweetheart to Sips N’ Strokes in Trussville for a delightfully creative experience. “For Valentine’s Day this year, we are going to be painting LOVE canvases. For couples, we suggest painting LOVE across two canvases for a sweet memory to hang on their wall; however, couples can also paint individual LOVE canvases. The doors will open at 6:30 p.m. on Valentine’s Day, and we will begin painting at 7 p.m. Please feel free to bring wine and other goodies to make your Valentine’s Day experience at Sips N’ Strokes unforgettable,” said owner and instructor Jennifer Boykin-Bryan.
Now, it’s time to pick up a dozen roses, and wow your lady with a night out on the town. Celebrating locally can be so easy, fun and romantic.
