Unexpected Valentine's Day Ideas

There is still plenty of time to make Valentine's Day extra special

Are you left scrambling for the best way to surprise your sweetie? Flowers, cards and candy are great but this year why not try something unexpected?

Whether you're a newlywed or married for years, the vows are still the same. Those vows are the inspiration behind Laurel Hill Cemetery's "Til Death do Us Part: The Love Stories of Laurel Hill."

A cemetery may not seem like the ideal place to visit with your darling but have no fear, there's nothing but love in the air.

The storytelling begins Saturday at 2 p.m. For $20 per person, guests will be enchanted with a tour of the historic gravesite along with the true love tales of those resting below. Afterward, red wine and other decadent treats, make for a storybook ending.

If you're looking to go a little more traditional, how about dinner with a twist?

New Hope and Ivyland Railroad will host a delightful Valentine's Day dinner aboard one of their top-of-the-line locomotives. The two-hour excursion includes a three-course dinner along with a long stem red rose and a box of Swiss chocolate truffles for your special someone.

Starting at $92 per person, the train departs on V-Day evening at 7 and from there your whimsical journey awaits.

If taking your love to new heights sounds more appealing then it's time to get a little adventurous.

Independence Helicopters is offering their Valentine's Day special. For $399, couples will enjoy a breathtaking tour of Philadelphia's scenic skyline. After a champagne toast you and your love can cozy up as you embark on a romantic, 30-minute escape into the skies.

Maybe this year you special someone will find out that the perfect gift is outside of the box.
