If your first date is going to be a romantic evening, think about how you ...

• Ventilate the room in which the date is to take place in good time and then turn on the heating (if the internal temperature requires it). Draw the curtains and check that your music system, lighter and lights are working properly.

The right music and lighting for a date

• For many, subtle, romantic music is the be-all and end-all of a successful date. If you cannot assess your guest's taste in music at all, you should use a CD that is not too thick or even causes considerable irritation - e.g. B. due to excessively pompous or "clear" texts. As a woman, keep in mind that the music of Celine Dion or Mariah Carey does not exactly suit male tastes.
• The CDs of the "Kuschelrock" series offer the advantage that they combine a wide variety of artists on one album and thus offer something romantic for almost every musical taste. In addition, within the "Kuschelrock" series you can choose between editions from the 80s and 90s as well as current to brand new compilations.

Rather, opt for a subdued, flattering light that conveys comfort and wellbeing by itself. "Dim" an overly bright (ceiling) lamp with some colored fabric or wrap tracing paper around the lampshade.
• If you are not a fan of many small tea lights, but prefer a dominant, central light source, you should move into a massive, multi-armed candlestick (e. B. in silver optics): It gives your room a very special charm and the bundled candlelight bathes the room in a very romantic atmosphere.
• If you don't like candles at all or If you are afraid that the smoke detector in the hallway of your apartment building will sound the alarm, you can of course use the open fire also "replace": Either with any table lamp (best dimmed or provided with a colored light bulb) or z. B. a salt crystal lamp or Lava lamp. The lamp model is of secondary importance, only the (reduced) intensity of the light and possibly the light color is important: an orange or red light creates a much more romantic mood.
