With the cooling
weather, there is no better time to schedule a romantic date night with someone
you love. Here are a few fun ideas you may want to consider for a date night in
Louisiana.
A Reveillon
Dinner (New Orleans)
If your special date
night happens to take place on Christmas Eve, you can't beat the romance of a
traditional French Reveillon Dinner. The Reveillon is a Creole New Orleans
feast that takes place in the hours after midnight mass on Christmas Eve.
Culinary extravagance is the hallmark of this unique and romantic dining
experience. Offered at several dozen fine restaurants throughout the city, a
Reveillon Dinner date is one that will never be forgotten; it's a great way to
welcome the wee morning hours of Christmas.
Holiday ballet
(Baton Rouge)
Nothing makes a date
more romantic than a little bit of culture. Immerse your date in beauty in an
entertaining and romantic way by getting tickets to The Nutcracker: A
Tale from the Bayou. Heralded as one of the more uniqueNutcracker productions,
this beautiful ballet is a holiday favorite featuring the Baton Rouge Symphony
Orchestra. Performances take place on Dec. 21 and 22. Afterward, take your date
out for a romantic dinner for two at an area restaurant.
Romantic
carriage ride (Lake Charles)
For a special date
night, consider planning a romantic carriage ride. Arrange for a New
Orleans-style carriage pulled by beautiful Belgian mules to transport you and
your special someone to dinner and on a tour through the historic district of
Lake Charles. You can cuddle in the carriage and have an unforgettable evening.
A very electric
date (New Orleans)
Consider a night of
theater for you and your loved one, followed by a stroll through the French
Quarter. Throughout December, the Joy Theater — located on Canal Street, right on
the edge of the romantic French Quarter — is featuring a special holiday
production, Lightwire: A Very Electric Christmas. Holiday music and
unique "electroluminiscent" puppeteers will start your evening off
with a warm holiday glow.
The romance of
lights (Natchitoches)
Last but not at all
least, consider a romantic night visit to the Festival of Lights, held each
year in Natchitoches. Whether you are taking in events and entertainment as a
couple or just walking hand in hand to enjoy the twinkling lights of the
state's premier holiday display, you are sure to have a memorable evening
together in this quaint Southern city.
These are only a few
ideas for you and your special someone to enjoy this December. The holidays
present many opportunities for warm cuddles in front of the fireplace and walks
outside to enjoy the falling leaves and finally crisp Southern air.
