In Need of Valentine's Day Plans? 'Delightful' App Makes Date Planning Less Daunting

By SheSpeaksTeam Feb 09, 2014

If you and yours are tired of the standard dinner and a movie date this Valentine’s Day then you may want to check out a new app that helps plan a perfect night out even when it’s last minute.

Mashable reports about the app called Delightful that guides couples through a vast array of pre-planned date options sure to suit anyone’s fancy. Delightful co-founder Chris Ling explains, “We heard from singles and couples alike that planning dates was a hassle, so they often end up just doing something familiar. Delightful changes that.”

Daters can choose from a wide array of possibilities from a classic night out at a gourmet restaurant to something a little more unique like a 3-hour glass-blowing class for two. Once you’ve chosen your perfect night out the app’s concierges do the rest like reserving a table, getting directions, and arranging for a car service. Daters can prepay for the entire evening via paypal so you won’t even have to worry about rummaging through your purse or wallet all night. And the app even allows for some spontaneity with the ability to plan a date just two hours in advance.

Couples on a budget can choose through a long list of dates under $50 and can also enjoy the first 30 days of the app free of charge. After the trial period, Delightful charges $12/month for full access to their dating library and concierge service. The new service is only available in San Francisco right now but has plans to expand this month.
