The Spark

  1. 1

    The opening director gets two minutes to change one atmospheric detail and welcome everyone.

  2. 2

    The surprise director uses five minutes for a tiny activity—a taste test, song, view, drawing, or challenge.

  3. 3

    The finale director uses the last three minutes for an affectionate close and declares the date officially complete.

Make it softer

Stay seated and use only items within reach.

Turn up the Heat

Make the finale a three-minute make-out session or back rub.
