19 Instagram Caption Ideas For Your Valentine’s Day Dinner

You made a reservation for Valentine’s Day dinner, found the perfect Valentine’s Day gift, and took a sweet selfie with your love. You’re excited to share it on social media because… let’s be honest: If you don’t post a cute couple’s picture with a sentimental caption, is it even Valentine’s Day? No, it’s not. The only problem is, Valentine’s Day Instagram captions can be hard to write. You want to say something sweet, but you don’t want it to be too sweet. How do you gush about your one true love without annoying your followers? We can help.

Good caption ideas are surprisingly hard to come by. But in our experience, the best Valentine’s Day Instagram captions are short and sweet. We’re talking one to two sentences max. If you’re not in a relationship and find yourself single on Valentine’s Day, don’t worry. Most of these will work as Galentine’s Day Instagram captions, too. Okay, maybe not all of them (looking at you, #11). But honestly, with the right #tbt pic of you and best friend, they definitely hold up. Especially the punny ones.
