On Valentine's Day, the famous Fontainbleau Miami Beach will offer (not just for Valentine's Day, but the entire month of February), various romantic activities because February is creative romance month. On Valentine's Day, each restaurant will offer price-fixed menus for couples to enjoy some of the best food in the region. Creative Romance month is part of a calendar list of unofficial holidays celebrated throughout the year where lovers are motivated to stimulate the romantic part of their brains and souls in different ways. From the website, gone-ta-pott.com, Creative Romance month is for lovers to "find different ways to put love and romance into their lives" and "remember little things that make love so special." Finally, it is to do things outside of the regular yearly routine for Valentine's Day and be creative in celebrating a marriage, a young love, and/or the strong bond of family.
