This Valentine's Day Getaway Guide features over 75 Getaway Specials to help you decide where to spend a new romantic adventure this year. History of the Holiday: Saint Valentine's Day is named after two Early Christian martyrs named Valentine. The day became associated with romantic love in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished. The sending of Valentines was a fashion in nineteenth-century Great Britain, and, in 1847, Esther Howland developed a successful business in her Worcester, Massachusetts home with hand-made Valentine cards based on British models.
