What better way to spend a perfect fall day than making lasting memories with your significant other? Grab your favorite person and make the most of autumn with these fall date ideas in Monroe-West Monroe!
For The Autumn-Obsessed Couple
Nothing says fall like a date at the Indian Village Harvest Farm pumpkin-patch. Cozy up on a hayride, take cheesy fall photos, enjoy apple cinnamon donuts and apple cider slushies, plus you can pick pumpkins to take home and carve!
Take advantage of the cooler weather with an outdoor fall color hunt. Explore the trails at Black Bayou or Kiroli Park and see who can find the best fall colors. Bonus points for turning it into a mini photo challenge!
for the adventurous couple
Go on a paddling adventure along one of the Ouachita Paddling Trails or head over to the Louisiana Purchase Gardens & Zoo to visit the animals.
Switch things up with a throwback date night! Hit the bowling lanes at Bayou Bowl, show off your best moves at Skatetown, or play arcade games at Tilt Studio.
Get a little competitive with a round of indoor golf at The Back Nine and make the loser buy dinner!
for the foodie couple
Spend the day on a coffee shop crawl and try a different specialty fall drink at each one you visit! Keep the fun going- visit a local bakery and find a fall treat to pair with your coffee.
Take advantage of the cooler weather and dine on a patio at one of our local restaurants. If you're feeling extra romantic, set up a sunset picnic by the water for the ultimate fall dinner date! Order dinner to go from a local restaurant and find a spot by the bayou to enjoy.
for the artsy couple
Create something together as a keepsake, such as one-of-a-kind matching jewelry at The Makery or painted pottery at The Good Daze Studio.
Spend the afternoon admiring local art at the Masur Museum of Art or discover a new favorite piece at Courtyard on Cotton.
Spot intricate hand painted murals in downtown or see how many colorful herons you can find on a heron hunt through the Twin Cities.
for the spontaneous couple
Attend a local event! Fall in MWM is full of fun events such as Skeletons on Tower, Chennault Fest, the Ark-La-Miss Fair and so many more!
Visit Landry Vineyards or Thirsty Farmer to listen to live music, enjoy cider or wine tastings, and have a peaceful evening.
For something a little outside the lines, do a shopping challenge! Visit a local shop, give each other a small budget and a time limit, then see who can find the perfect item for each other.
for the sporty couple
Fall means it's game time in Monroe-West Monroe! Cheer on the Monroe Moccasins at an action-packed hockey game or show your Warhawk pride at a ULM football game!
Instead of watching a game, challenge each other to one of your own. Grab your paddles and hit a local pickleball court. You could play against each other or find partners and make it a double date!
