These Valentine's Day Instagram Captions Are Cute Without Being Cheesy

Valentine's Day as a kid meant stuffing cardboard boxes with a card and candy for each of your classmates, but, arguably, the 2023 way to send those Valentine's greetings is with an Instagram post. It might commemorate your love for your Valentine or your galentines or even your self-love with a photo from however you spend February 14 this year. But what to say in that caption? We're here to help with that.

We've rounded up 95 Valentine's Day captions to inspire the one you write this year. Some are funny, some are cute. Some come straight from pop culture (can you name that movie?); others are quotes from notable characters, literature, and more. We've also got a list of quotes for singles—love can look lots of different ways, after all. For more ideas of what to write, consider using a Valentine's Day quote (perhaps a funny Valentine's Day quote at that?), or borrowing a sincere Valentine's Day wish or stealing a line from a favorite Valentine's Day movie. You can pick just the right one to share with your family or business too.

And now to celebrate the day of love with words that say it just right!
