Rose Day kicks things off
The week opens with Rose Day, traditionally marked by gifting roses to express emotions. Red roses signal love, yellow stands for friendship, while pink often shows admiration or gratitude.
Since it’s a Saturday this year, many are planning more than just bouquets — brunch dates, park picnics, or small surprises at home are already trending across social media.
Weekend advantage for Propose Day
Propose Day falls on Sunday, giving couples a relaxed setting to confess feelings or take the next step in a relationship. With no weekday rush, proposals at cafés, scenic spots, or during sunset outings are expected to be popular choices.
Relationship experts say weekends make such moments feel more personal and less hurried.
Midweek celebrations keep the momentum
From Monday onward, the week turns into smaller, thoughtful gestures.
Chocolate Day on Monday adds sweetness to an otherwise busy workday. Many opt for gifting premium chocolates, baked treats, or surprise deliveries.
Tuesday’s Teddy Day focuses on comfort and cute keepsakes, often symbolised by soft toys or personalised gifts.
Promise Day on Wednesday shifts the tone from gifts to words — couples use the day to make commitments, big or small, about trust and support.

Hug Day and Kiss Day build up to the finale
By Thursday, Hug Day brings a softer, emotional note. A simple hug, many say, can speak louder than expensive gifts.
Friday’s Kiss Day adds a touch of intimacy and sets the mood for the weekend, acting as a lead-in to the biggest day of the week.
Valentine’s Day lands on a Saturday
The grand finale, Valentine’s Day, arrives on February 14 — also a Saturday. Restaurants, cafés, and hotels are already seeing early bookings as couples plan dinners, staycations, or short trips.
Travel and hospitality platforms expect this weekend to be among the busiest of the month, with demand peaking in metros like Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru, and Goa.
For those staying home, simple plans — home-cooked meals, movie nights, or handwritten notes — remain just as popular.
Plan ahead
With both weekends falling during Valentine’s Week, experts suggest booking tables and travel tickets early to avoid last-minute price surges.
At its core, though, the week isn’t about grand gestures. Even small, genuine efforts tend to matter more.
After all, love rarely needs a big budget — just a little time and thought.
