What fonts should I use on Valentine’s Day?

When trying to be romantic and sentimental, handwriting fonts work best. They express closeness, personal touch and warmth. Here is a sample of these kinds of fonts:

Where can I find the right Valentine’s Day Photos

Our recommendation is to use a personal photo. Saying “I love you” or really anything sentimental to someone close is deeply personal. This is why the image you use should be something that the 2 of you share on a deeper level. Don’t just pick the best picture you have of the 2 of you, but pick the image that best reminds you of a special moment you shared, like you holding hands, goofing around in the elevator mirror, or maybe something fun you did together.

Whatever you do, though, nude photos are not cool for romance. It had to be said 😎

This is why all the images you see on this page can be edited. They are all templates from PostMuse, which means you can edit and change anything about them. Check it out on iOS and Android.

It’s not always the case that you have a good enough photo lying around. What you can do as a second best in this situation is use a cute photo from Unsplash or Pixabay.

Both Unsplash and Pixabay provide free photos for you to use. You can find these photos in our app as well.

Emoji or simple Story ideas

Sometimes not a lot needs to be said. The simple fact that you send a personal message is enough for the other person to get the point. There are, however, symbols that can help you get the message across. The heart is the most obvious symbol you can use. Did you know there are 27 heart-related emojis or characters? Some of them might not be as used or supported by all devices, though. Here they are:💌 ❣️ 💒 💓 💔 💕 💖 💗 💘 💙 💚 💛 💜 💝 💞 💟 🧡 🏩 ❤️ 🖤 😍 🥰 ♡ ❣ ❥ ♥︎ ❤︎. One of them is a Love Hotel. Who decides these things? 😍🏩

Are you using a Mac? Let me share a little tip: Press [Control + Command + Space] to get to a little-known tool that helps you search for emojis.

A second symbol we found fun to use is a simple star ⭐️. It has a quick magical, whimsical effect and that’s just how being in love sometimes feels.

For more intricate symbols, you can use an online resource like freepik to find all kinds of assets. Here is what a simple search for love on freepik will give you.

You can find lots of symbols and assets to use in PostMuse as well. Actually, all the images you see on this page are templates from the app, which you can edit and customise. Download PostMuse on iOS and Android for free and check them out.
