I think it's a great idea, personally... and hey, it's not really ON V-Day, is it guys?... he's planning the big event for February 25th. So go for it. Damn, I've never heard of any guy spending so much energy planning for romantic events this early in the game... are you sure you are doing this for her, or is it for you to get attention for doing romantic things?

My only worry is that she'll start expecting things like this from you on EVERY holiday... e.g. her birthday, Christmas, etc. Are you prepared to live up to your own high standard? Two months together is really just the beginning, and this event you are planning is huge... unless, of course, you plan to propose very soon.

I will say, though, that when I came back from Africa and Iceland after 2.5 months away from my bf (we had been together for over a year at that point), he surprised me with a hotel room, flowers, gifts, candles, wine... it was SOOOO cool, I was just awash in amazement at his planning. If we did that three times a year, though, I dunno... I think it's better when saved for very special occasions. Not to mention it costs a LOT for you to do all that!

P.S. Are you in the military?
