2 min read February 2021 — Marriage is slowly falling out of popularity among newer generations. Only one in three millennials is living with a significant other. In comparison, 46% of baby boomers and 70% of the Silent Generation are living with their partners. But to celebrate love is to celebrate life, and to say millennials don’t love is to say they are not alive. If you have a partner — no matter your age — celebrate them this weekend by attending one of these events.
Andrea Bocelli in Concert for Valentine’s Day at the FLA Live Arena
Broward residents will have the opportunity to hear one of the most iconic singers of the 21st century. Andrea Bocelli will perform a concert for lovebirds on the 14th. With nearly 90 million records sold worldwide, according to the Kravis Center website, this promises to be a delightful night. Starting at 8 p.m. The FLA Live Arena does not accept cash or big bags and recommends face masks and other CDC protocols for attendees. Tickets start at $80 per person and can be purchased here.
B Ocean’s Valentines Dinner For Two
For a more intimate night of delicious meals and perfect wine pairing look at B Ocean’s. For $65 per person, guests can enjoy a three-course meal consisting of crab souffle, Beef Wellington, and a sweet lover’s dessert tasting tray.

The Beach
Love is free and spending money to celebrate it should not be a requirement. Broward has great beaches and nature locations to plan a whole weekend with a significant other. There is nothing better than putting effort and creativity into a relationship by celebrating Valentines with intimate activities that are organic and not purchased. A walk on the beach can be a romantic moment to connect, talk, plan and enjoy each other’s company. Fort Lauderdale’s beaches are beautiful and will provide everyone with the perfect sunset to kiss under.
