Themes
*
Great lovers in history - incorporate images, clues
and maps from famous lovers all over the world and throughout
time (i.e. Antony & Cleopatra, etc.)
*
Retrace the steps of your relationship - Have them revisit
the site of your first/memorable dates, old houses you
used to live in, places you fell in love. Make it chronological
to build as your relationship grew. For those places
that may be out of reach (i.e. out of state), but that
you would still like to include, try postcards or photos
to be picked up in appropriate locations.
*
Their (more likely HER) favorite romantic movie. Have
things happen to her similar to how they happened to
her counterpart in the movie. Let her live out some
memorable scenes. The whole treasure hunt could be connected
by these scenes that she gets to live out.
*
Casanova - research some information on this legendary
lover. Coordinate everything with a French theme.
*
Begin with he/she finding a note in a bottle (in the
water or washed ashore) from a lost lover at see. The
note is to his/her lover they left behind - your participant
must reunite these two lovers. If you are clever enough,
you could write a whole story on this.
*
If he/she has a favorite novel, let them use it as part
of their clues. Incorporate the story of the book into
the treasure hunt so that they can live out their favorite
literary character.
*
Build up a mystery by having them receive messages or
a single REPEATED message from 'a man in a black cape'
or 'a woman in a red dress.'
*
Do a 'poor man's' honeymoon. Wherever you went for your
honeymoon, you could recreate the scene and activities.
Get some postcards from the location - or make your
own on the computer. You can order travel guides free
- or get them from a local travel agent. Where did you
eat? Is there somewhere you could go that would remind
them of that place? Etc.
*
Involving the interest of the person going on the treasure
hunt. For example, if they like horses or woodworking,
fishing, beaches, sunsets, dolphins, scrapbooking, etc.
- incorporate these into the hunt.
