Fall is such a beautiful season filled with pumpkin spiced lattes, pumpkin patches, and cozy sweaters, which is probably why you are looking for some fun and romantic fall date ideas.
It’s such a great season to spend some quality time with a loved one and enjoy the beautiful outdoors.

This post is all about fall date ideas.
Best Fall Date Ideas
1. Scary Movie Night
A scary movie date night is a great way to get into the fall spirit and can be super fun especially if you add a few extra fun things into the mix.
Grab a big bowl of popcorn, grab some drinks and snacks, and gather as many blankets and pillows as you can!
I recently discovered mini projectors like the one below which can take a movie night to the next level! You can hook up your smart phone to a projector and watch a movie pretty much anywhere in your home.
Setting one up in your backyard or on your balcony would be SUPER fun and a great way to watch a movie under the stars.
2. Board Game Night
Board game nights are such a great fall date idea especially if it’s a little too cold to go outside.
It’s fun to set up a board game cafe vibe where you can put on some music, have snacks and make some yummy lattes.
You can stick with the classic board games for a more relaxed fun vibe or make it more of a romantic date night by playing some couple’s board games like these ones which have really good reviews.
3. Plan a Hike
Taking a hike in fall can be super romantic! The colors of the leaves, the crisp fall air, and the chunky sweaters makes it one of the best fall date ideas!
Grab a nice latte and discover some beautiful trails with your loved one.
4. Have a Picnic
Having a picnic is another great way to spend some time in the beautiful outdoors. You can take a nice walk or hike through a scenic trail and then find a nice place to have lunch.
If the weather doesn’t permit, there’s always the option to have a cute picnic inside. Grab some blankets and pillows and some yummy snacks and have an indoor picnic in the living room.
The adorable mini picnic table linked below is just as cute used indoors as it is outdoors.
5. Fruit Harvest
Going apple picking or heading over to a pumpkin patch just screams fall! It can be such a fun way to spend some quality time with your loved one while enjoying the fall weather.

6. Go Camping
If you and your loved one enjoy camping, it can be a great way to enjoy the outdoors and spend some quality time together without other distractions.
The tent and sleeping bag below are super affordable which is great if you want to experience camping without spending a ton of money.
Camping during the beautiful fall season makes it extra romantic.
7. Paint Night
A paint night can be such a great fall date. It’s a really fun and creative activity, even if you aren’t good at painting.
But I find it can be even more fun and romantic when it’s done in the home.
When it’s just the two of you, it’s a bit more intimate. You can help each other paint, take your time, and have good conversations.
There are tons of free follow along paint vids online and really affordable pain sets online like the ones below.
8. Make Some Candy Apples
Candy apples are super easy to make and a great way to spend some time together while being able to look forward to a yummy treat at the end.
9. Have a Spa Day
It can be hard to find the time to pamper ourselves, that’s why creating a spa day as a date is a great way for the two of you to pamper yourselves.
A spa day date combines spending time with your loved one AND both of you getting some pamper time.
It’s SUPER romantic and can really make you feel close to one another.
Put on some relaxing music, diffuse some essential oils, grab some robes and some face masks and maybe even give one another a massage.
I think it’s the perfect romantic date night idea.
If you really want a spa like experience check out the shower steamers below they are my FAV. They make you feel as though you are in a spa sauna.
10. Karaoke Night
A karaoke night is a great date night idea and it can be super cute especially if you sing a duet together.
To make it more fun, grab some drinks and snacks and be silly and dance together.
There’s plenty of free karaoke vids online and you can totally just use a hairbrush as a mic.
BUT if you do want to make things super fun and take it up a notch you can create your own karaoke room with a karaoke mic and light display like the ones below. The mic below has amazing reviews and even videos of people using it.
11. Have a Romantic Dinner
What’s more romantic than a romantic dinner? You can go out to dinner and then take a nice walk throughout the streets and admire the beautiful fall weather.
Or you could opt for a romantic dinner at home as well, which can be just as, if not more, romantic.
Take out some candles, put on some music and dress up for each other.

12. Night Under the Stars
Can you think of anything more romantic than a night under the stars? Grab a nice big blanket, pillows, drinks and snacks, and head outside.
If the weather doesn’t permit, then you could also have a night under the stars in the comfort of your own home.
The starlight machine below emits star-like lights on your ceiling, which at first, I didn’t think much of, but they are actually adorable! You can see the review photos of people using it and it looks SO cute.
One of my favorite romantic date nights is to pair this with roasted marshmellows to really give me that outdoor experience!
It is such a simple yet super romantic date night experience.
Grab a ton of blankets and pillows, grab some drinks and snacks and snuggle under the star light!
13. Cafe Night
The vibe of a cafe can be super romantic, especially in the fall. The laid-back music, the smell of coffee, and the good conversations are just some of the reasons it’s a great fall date idea.
For a night in, you can also try to create the experience in your own home.
It is much cheaper and it makes the home SUPER cozy and romantic.
Put on some music, brew some yummy drinks and let the good conversations roll in.
If you want to take your coffee making skills up a notch, the syrups below taste AMAZING and make you feel like your coffee was made in a cafe.

I can’t think of too many things more fall appropriate than a hay ride. It is a super cute and affordable fall date idea.
And it’s a great way to take in the beautiful fall scenery!

This is another fun but also affordable fall date idea. Mazes can be such a cute way to spend time together.
It’s a great way to test out your teamwork skills!

Baking a pie and making some apple cider couldn’t be anymore of a fall date. It’s such a sweet and cozy way to spend some time together, and you’ll get a tasty treat as a bonus.
