The only thing better than free food on Valentine’s Day is a free wedding.
Whataburger is giving lucky couples the chance to not only celebrate their nuptials at six of its Texas locations but will also cover your meal, travel expenses, a photographer, a select number of guests, decorations and an officiant. Oh, and $5,000!
“From engagement photos to wedding cakes and cookies -- even late-night Honey Butter Chicken Biscuits for their guests -- our fans have come up with really creative ways to include Whataburger into their big day,” said Pam Cox, Whataburger vice president, human resources and brand communication.
“Nothing says love at first bite like wedding bells at Whataburger, and we can’t wait to celebrate a couple of love stories with some of our very own Whataburger super-fans!” Cox added.

Boston Market
Nothing says “I love you” more than barbecue, and Boston Market has the perfect item on its menu that does just that this Valentine’s Day: the BAE-by Back Ribs.
The limited-edition sweet and saucy ribs are served in a bouquet, saying farewell to the traditional flowers and chocolate.
"When we first toyed with the idea of adding Baby Back Ribs to our menu, we knew we wanted to focus on flavor and quality," said Chef Tony Fialho, director of culinary innovation at Boston Market. "Baby Back Ribs are sure to delight barbeque enthusiasts everywhere, but when packaged in a delectable bouquet, they're the picture-perfect Valentine's Day gift to help anyone delight --and feed -- that special someone."
While the ribs will be a permanent option on Boston Market’s menu, the bouquet of rips will only be sold on Feb.14 for $29.99.
Red Lobster
Everyone knows Red Lobster is famous for its Cheddar Bay Biscuits. Now, the seafood restaurant chain is offering its prized food item nicely packaged in a heart-shaped box, only without the chocolate.
“Valentine’s Day is approaching and that doesn’t have to mean another year of gifting boring bouquets or cheap chocolates,” Red Lobster said of its Valentine’s Day biscuits. “What if you could surprise your loved one with a gift that’s guaranteed to warm their heart and appetite?”
The Red Lobster special will be available on Feb. 10, giving customers the option to purchase a half-dozen Cheddar Bay Biscuits from RedLobster.com for either pickup or delivery. The limited-edition boxes can be made available for an additional $1.

If you’re not feeling the spirit of love this year, there’s an option for you, too. Burger King is now touting an unorthodox special that allows customers to trade in a photo of their ex and exchange it for a nice, juicy Whopper. What’s more, the flagship burger will be served in a special “breakup box.”
The promotion is inspired by both Valentine’s Day and the new movie “Birds of Prey (And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn)," the film being the latest in the DC Extended Universe cinematic series. The film’s main character, Harley Quinn, is apparently dealing with the aftermath of breaking up with the Joker.

“This Valentine’s Day, who needs The Joker when you can have the King?" Burger King said in a press release. "In a new partnership with Warner Bros. Pictures and their new film 'Birds of Prey (And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn),' Burger King restaurants are celebrating Anti-Valentine’s Day in true Harley Quinn fashion."
"On the heels of the February 7 'Birds of Prey' movie release, in which everyone’s favorite anti-heroine Harley embarks on her post-breakup emancipation from The Joker, Burger King is turning ex-flames into flame-grilled Whopper sandwiches," the company added. "Talk about turning up the heat!"
