- Turn the lights down to a soft glow. All the lights in the sleeping room and the bathing room dim! We suggest going low, very low, on nearly all the lights. Here’s our favorite setting:
- Bedside Lamps: 10% – basically as low as possible before the light turns off.
- Desk Lamp: 10%
- Floor Lamp: 10%
- Buddha Lamp: 10% or off.
- Entry Light: Off
- Bathroom Lights: 10% – you’ll see the lights over the shower and commode cut off, but the center light will stay low. It’s magical.
- Depending on your room type you may have more or less lamps than what’s mentioned in the romantic setting above. Just exercise the idea of less is more; 10% or off is our recommendation.
- Don’t forget to draw the blackout drapes!
- Start a meaningful music playlist from your phone on the BlueTooth® speakers or TV. The volume should be slightly louder than normal. See our guide on setting up the sound system in your room.
- Eliminate all other distractions and focus only on your sweetheart for the rest of the evening.
