You will also want candles on the table... if you don't have fancy candle holders - -anything can be substituted...

Votive candles in cleaned tin cans (that maybe you tied a red ribbon around) make for nice reflective light. have some candles other than the table where dinner will be served.

Flowers are also a nice touch on the table, but don't have a really tall arrangement in the middle of the table - makes conversation difficult.

Have the table set before she arrives (or while she is out of the room, include napkins - fork, knife, spoon, plate)

If something doesn't turn out perfectly, don't stress it, so what, it's honestly 100 percent the thought that counts...
