Unfortunately, it doesn't snow here that much. And the snow is only romantic for a day (after that it turns into a slushy mess). But, still, New York is never more romantic than it is during the winter.
The best and most romantic spots and hotels, though, are not going to be cheap. One of the nicest is the Hudson Hotel on West 58th Street. It has the rare distinction of having a wood-buring fireplace in a book-lined billiard room (and a bar to top it off). Another interesting hotel is the Library Hotel on Madison and 41st. A third is the W Hotel in Union Square.
As for romantic spots, I suggest steering clear of the tourists. Take a walk through Central Park. There won't be a lot of people there, especially after a snowfall. Or ride the Staten Island Ferry (since you're from Alaska you'll have the outside all to yourself). You can also walk across the Brooklyn Bridge. I personally like the old places in New York - a village restaurant called One if by Land is one of the most romantic in the city and was once a carriage house owned by Aaron Burr. You can also find old bars throughout the city, from Fanelli's on Prince Street to PJ Clark's at Third Avenue and 55th.
I could go on and on, but the best thing to do is enjoy yourself.
