A very romantic spot in San Antonio is the Japanese Sunken Gardens (Tea gardens) by the zoo. Admission is free. It is a very pretty place with flowers and koi fish. However, last time I was there, in late October, it was being refurbished. They took out all the water and fish and were in the process of remodeling it (or something to that effect). You may want to go by and see if its still that way or if its back to its original splendor.
Here is a site that you can visit that tells you a bit more about it: http://hotx.com/sunkengarden/
Another romantic place just north of New Braunfels is Gruene. The Grist Mill restaurant is next to the Guadalupe River the views at sunset are outstanding.
Good luck!

Wow! Your question was under San Antone, but your statement said Texas.
I agree with the Indian Lodge at the state park near Davis. South Padre Island is nice. And the River Walk in SA is great! Texas is so big and diversified it is almost impossible to give you a answer. Do some leg work, and you can make anything out of it you want...

If you are asking about Texas in general, take her to a beach hotel in Port Aransas. The Spring Break crowd is not there yet, so it can be quite romantic. Corpus Christi is cool, too, but you'll have a better chance at privacy on the beach in Port A. I live in San Antonio, and love taking that short trip to the beach. BUT-- don't ask me how cold it will be. Our weather has been acting pretty weird lately. Hope y'all have a great time where ever you go

Bed and Breakfast in Fredericksburg is a pretty sure bet. If you are looking for the off the beaten path. We did the Indian Lodge in the Davis Moutains for our honeymoon. Port Aransas as somone already mentioned is a great place.

Salado has always been known for romantic inns. Try this web site:

The Hill Country (Kerrville and Fredricksburg) also are known for having some lovely inns and bed and breakfasts.
Wimberly is another place that is nice.

I have wanted to stay at the Painted lady Inn in San Antonio, on broadway, but haven't yet. It sounds like a really cool place.

I raised my family in Texas and I cannot for the life of me think of one single thing about Texas that could even with great and inspired imagination be construed as "romantic". Might I suggest a quick flight to a nice Mexican eastern coast resort?
