First Bday?
Must make a very good impression...
So...........
Dress up and......
Dinner:
$60 to $150 =
Dinner at a fine dining establishment.
Try Hawksworth.
Food and Ambiance is amazing.
$50 to $100 =
Beach House
Food is okay for the price range, but location is romantic.
$60 to $150 =
Bluewater
Food is good and if you want a "noisier" setting, this is the place.
Short trip:
$100 to $150
Harrison Hot Springs =
Dipping in the sulphur springs!
Summer jet skiing (where she'll tell you to slow down while CRADLING your back behind you)
Banana BOAT!!!!!!!!
And, on the way back, go to Chiliwack river rafting which is AWESOME!
Chilliwack River Rafting - Vancouver Region's Best White Water Resort
$100 to $150
Whistler =
Zip lining
Dinner tours (where you visit 4 different restaurants within 2 hours... quite fun!!!! but the company is... tilting towards the old side, but food is great... including a trip to an underground wine cellar at Bearfoot Bistro)
$150 to $300
Victoria =
if she likes to just walk around like a regular tourist...?
----------------------
Bday present to impress:
If you want to tell her you are serious....
Give her a "promise ring"... nothing fancy, below $200 or whatever budget suits you, but tell her it is a promise ring or a "steady" ring, if you really are into her.
Surprise her at the restaurant with the gift (ask one of the servers to put it in a special dessert treat, but make sure she does not eat it)... or if you are the Beach House, take a stroll down Ambleside park and sit down on one of the benches in front of the small lake and give her the present whatever it is.
Flowers of course.
Cheapo $12 dozen roses (short stem) or $46 long stem roses from Ecuador or... $98 long stem with a LOT of decoration to impress (BEFORE the dinner mind you).
Anyway, have fun....... and ENJOY THE MOMENT!
