Fall Date Ideas 10 Awesome Ideas For Autumn Romance ♥ Wine Tasting romantic, fun, creative, low cost Wine tasting is a good time any time, and now is the perfect time to get out there to have a taste. During the harvest you'll find wine tasting is especially fun and festive. There are wine and harvest festivals happening now, plus special wine tasting events that combine wine with food, fun, and cooking as wineries show off their latest selections. This is great fun for singles and couples. My wife and I just went to a local wine tasting that offered samples of 6 local wines for $5 plus we got souvenir glasses to keep. If we bring our glasses back with us the next time we go the wine tasting is free. ♥ Hay Rides / Corn Maze / Pumpkin Patch romantic, fun, creative, low cost  While you're there stroll through the pumpkin patch to find the perfect pumpkins for carving, cooking, or decoration. Why wait until they come to your local market - get out there and pick your own together. ♥ Farmers Markets fun, creative, low cost There is still time to enjoy the late summer harvest of fresh fruits and vegetables at a local farmers market. If you like fruits and veggies you'll find the flavor is always best when it's fresh from the farm. Take a date and pick your favorites to share and enjoy, maybe even later that night as you cook together ♥ Fall Color Tours romantic, fun, creative It may be too soon to go now, but if you plan ahead you'll be ready when the weatherman tells you it is almost time for peak colors. Many fall color tours can be found on trains, self-driving tours, or as part of a romantic getaway package. This is one of my favorite fall date ideas. ♥ Take a Walk romantic, fun, low cost Now is the perfect time to head to the park, nature area, lake shore, or anyplace you and a date can enjoy the early signs of the changing seasons. Labor day usually marks the end of summer in the USA, but you can still enjoy many summer time locations that are now much calmer and quieter. ♥ Romantic Weekend Getaway romantic, fun, creative  For lower than low rates, check on last minute getaways and excursions that will soon be closed until next Spring. Outdoor lovers can still get in an end of season camping trip with cooler nights that call for staying warm by the fire or warming up by other means. Hint, hint. ♥ Have a Picnic romantic, fun, creative, low cost I think this is a good idea any season, even in winter. With the availability of hot foods for take-out you can enjoy a variety of cuisines and have a little more elbow room as people clear out of the parks and head back to school and back inside. ♥ Seasonal Festivals fun, low cost There are still plenty of end of summer / start of fall festivals to enjoy. Look for harvest and autumn festivals and make a day of enjoying the best of the season with someone special.

The first week in October you can enjoy the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta in Albuquerque, New Mexico - or discover hot air ballooning closer to home with a friend. ♥ Pick Your Own fun, low cost You can enjoy a fun afternoon with a friend or lover picking your own fruits and vegetables at a local farm. If you're in a giving mood you might also consider donating some or all of what you pick to a local food pantry. The Most Important Part of This The most important element to your successful fall date ideas is you and what you bring to it. If you focus on having fun, feeling romantic, or just making the most of some free time together, you can make the most of any date idea. It won't matter what you do or how much you spend.
