The June Date Night Club
June 13 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
$150
The Date Night Club is a curated dinner experience for couples who want an easy, meaningful night out — without having to plan it themselves.
Join us in beautiful Saluda on Saturday, June 13th from 6:00–8:00 p.m. for an intimate evening designed to help you slow down, reconnect, and enjoy quality time together.
Buy one ticket per couple.
Special price for our first event!
Early bird $150
Full price $160
Your ticket includes a three-course Italian meal, thoughtful conversation prompts, and some brief input from Dan and Karina to spark reflection and connection in your relationship. This is not a workshop and there’s no pressure to share with the group — just a warm, relaxed evening created to help you enjoy each other and have conversations that matter.
Plus you’ll get some ideas and discounts for a mystery date you can use later in the month.
Come for the food, stay for the connection, and let us take care of the planning.
Make a day of it! Come down to Saluda and get a drink at the Purple Onion or Salud! Sip and Strum, take a walk down the beautiful main street and do some vintage shopping, or even plan an adventure with Green River Adventures.
