A lack of money or tight finances doesn't have to make the dream of a romantic weekend getaway vacation an impossible dream.
Like a lot of things in life, this type of vacation is completely possible if you plan accordingly.
First, be sure to eliminate any reservations you have about enjoying a short romantic getaway on the cheap.
Too many people are under the misconception that in order to show that they love their special someone a lot, they have to spend significant amounts of money on any weekend getaway they choose.
Remember, the purpose of a romantic weekend is not to flash around how much money you've spent.
It's to spend time with that important, special person in your life.
You might be surprised to know that you can do this on a shoestring budget without compromising the romance between the two of you.
This will involve some creativity.
And like everything else, it will also require a bit of planning and good timing to make sure you get the best deals possible.
Make sure you choose an option that best suits the interest of both you and your romantic other.
You can focus on the areas that are generally considered romantic.
Most consider a scenic stroll down a beach under the setting sun romantic.
However, this is not always an option for everyone, especially if you don't live anywhere near the water.
Even if you live near the water, sometimes you may not have access to it.
Or if you want to rent an oceanfront room, you can't afford the premium rates usually associated with renting prime rooms like those.
Don't be discouraged.
You may need to modify this dream.
A scenic stroll in a park followed by a private picnic lunch is romantic.
It can be romantic even if you live in a busy city and the only park available is a centralized park that almost everyone else (or so it seems) uses.
Try to think outside the box.
When creating romance, you sometimes have too even if you can't truly get away for the weekend.
You can transform your own home into a romantic weekend getaway.
While this isn't a getaway in the true sense of the word, you can disconnect from technology (phone etc), buy some nice sheets, candles, flowers and music and simply enjoy uninterrupted time together.
If you really want to go out for your romantic weekend getaway, it's common to find vouchers for entertainment, dining and even accommodations in special discount books or newspapers.
If you can tolerate a special marketing presentation, you may be able to enjoy a higher-end weekend getaway than you would have otherwise.
Often fancier hotels or resorts will try to encourage more clients to buy into a vacation plan by offering a discounted weekend getaway as long as guests sit down and listen to an hour to 90 minute presentation.
Generally the sales push in these presentations is aggressive, but if you can resist it, you'll be able to enjoy the amenities of the facilities for a reduced rate for the rest of your visit.
