By formal, do you mean fancy? or just an actual, certifiable date?
here are a couple of ideas for either:
1. Get some nice wine, some arbor mist in case she doesn't like wine, and some soda if she doesn' t drink (better to cover your bases until you know her more). Some nice cheese with crackers, apples to slice up, a main course, and some nice dessert. Stash all this stuff with everything else you would need for a nice picnic (don't forget the candles) near the most scenic location you can find.
Then go with her on a hike and when you get to the water fall, scenic vista, etc., whip out the picnic supplies from behind a bush and bask in the beauty of nature and her affection.
2. If you live near a city, dress up, take her out to a nice dinner and then go see a play.
3. Cook a nice dinner. Then get all dressed up, pick her up, and take her back to your place. Eat the dinner and watch her favorite movie.
4. If you are a couple of hours away from the beach, drive her out there to see the sunrise/set.
5. Take her to an animal shelter (not a pound, but a no kill shelter). Let her walk the dogs and play with the cats.
6. Be creative. Just about any sincere effort to please her should do the trick.
Good luck!
