I’m married and cant enter this contest but here is my creative idea for you engaged couples out there in Los Angeles or the OC:
Go online August 1st and get two tickets to the Hollywood Bowl’s free concert by Target or you can go online early and get the $1 seats to any concert (but for this you need to get them when they go on sale!) http://www.hollywoodbowl.com/bienvenido/bienvenido.cfm
Day of concert, head to Trader Joes, get two bottles of Charles Shaw wine for $2.99 each. Buy a good old pizza special from Little Cesar’s Pizza and of course a sweet dessert that you enjoy. I personally like chocolate chip cookies from Albertsons of all places!
Day of: Park at the park and ride by your home and take the $5 per person shuttle from your area. Arrive early and have a romantic picnic at the bowl with your first bottle of wine and pizza in one of the picnic areas. After your feeling full and relaxed from dinner, walk over to your seats and enjoy the show. During the show, share your desserts with your second bottle of wine and snuggle under your blanket together. When the show is over, you have a ride home to sober up on the shuttle!
Tickets: Estimate $5 for fees
Wine: $2.99 each plus tax = $6.53
Pizza special from Little Caesars: $9.82 (Large pepperoni pizza, crazy bread, crazy sauce and a liter of soda)
Dessert: $3.99 for a bag of yummy Albertsons chocolate chip cookies + tax =$4.35
Parking/shuttle: $13.50 includes fees
Total: $39.20
Blanket, wine glasses and dishes from home: free

My sweetheart and I adore classic cocktails, and our favorite place in San Francisco is Heaven’s Dog. At 11:30, they serve free (free!) dim sum, so for $40 we could easily order two rounds of superb cocktails and have a fabulous late night meal. Besides, John and I love an excuse to dress up, so he’d probably wear his favorite Italian cut blue wool suit and I’d wear his favorite red and white polka dot wrap dress.
