Randy Fenoli of 'Say Yes To The Dress' host proposes his fiancée Mete Kobal

It is said that in the 1700s, rural English women thought that bay leaves would bring them good luck on V-Day.

Candy hearts, which are synonymous with V-day celebrations, were initially manufactured as medical lozenges.

Wearing your heart on your sleeve isn’t just a phrase. In the middle ages, young women and men wore pins with the names of their beloved on their sleeves.

V-Day wasn’t a romantic holiday until Geoffrey Chaucer published his poem,‘The Parliament of Fowls’ (in the 14th century) in which he called St. Valentine’s Day, the day birds call their mates.

A 2017 research by diamond retailer, James Allen, stated that 43% of millennials thought V-Day was the perfect proposal day.

In the 17th century, King Charles II of Sweden learned about the special meanings that flowers have during a trip to Persia. He then returned, and made roses popular as a symbol of love.

Thank Richard Cadbury for your go-to V-Day gift. He is the one who introduced the first heart-shaped box of Valentine's Day chocolates in 1868.

Japan has celebrated this day of love since 1936. But, due to a translation error made by a chocolate company, it was established as a day when ONLY women buy gifts for their sweethearts.

In South Korea, V-Day is spread over 3 days. On February 14, women gift men, and on March 14, men return the favour. On April 14, singles eat black noodles.
