57 Top Romantic Movies for Stay at Home Date Nights

Last Updated on August 22, 2024 by Alicia Michelle

Looking for some romantic movies to watch with your boyfriend, girlfriend or spouse?

Whether it's for Valentine's Day, an anniversary, or just because it's been a while since you and your significant other have spent time alone together, dinner and a romantic movie are a great way to spend a stay at home date night.

Watching romantic movies can also be a great inspiration on how to flirt with your husband!

If you're looking for a great romantic movie (or even a romantic comedy movie–my favorite!) here's a list of 57 of the most romantic movies. My husband and I have watched many of these romantic movies over and over and hope you enjoy them too!

About this List of Top Romantic Movies

There's a wide range of romantic movies represented here (everything from classic romance movies  to romantic comedy movies), and each family has their own standard for what is and is not appropriate to watch.

Although these movies are fairly clean (you won't find movies like Fifty Shades of Grey on here), they are still intended for adult viewing and not kids. Some of the romantic movies on this list may have content you could potentially find questionable (such as Titanic, Jerry Maguire, 50 First Dates, The Holiday, Top Gun, The Wedding Singer, When Harry Met Sally, Moulin Rouge, Shakespeare in Love, or others).

If you aren't familiar with a particular romantic movie title, please go to a movie review site like Plugged In to learn more about it a specific romantic movie's content. You may look at these romantic movies and decide that they're outside the boundaries of what you'd deem appropriate; or perhaps you plan to skip through certain scenes (like we do); or perhaps it's no big deal to you at all.

Either way, please don't send me hate mail regarding the movie selections here since it's impossible to choose a list of romantic movies that every couple would deem appropriate. 🙂 Thank you. 🙂

I've divided the top romantic movies list into three categories:

• romantic comedy movies
• classic romance movies

It makes sense that communication and closeness with your partner make you want to date your spouse and watch romantic movies! One of the best ways we've found for maintaining closeness is by working through a couples devotional together, especially this amazing one from marriage coaches Mike and Carlie Kercheval.
