8 Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas for Your Significant Other
So, Valentine’s Day is around the corner and you’re struggling to think of the perfect gift for your significant other. Before time catches you by surprise and you are forced to get a boring gift card or nothing at all, take a look at our eight best Valentine’s Day gift ideas. We have all the Valentine’s Day inspiration you need to make your significant other’s heart skip a beat.
1. Dinner Date
One of the simplest, yet most thoughtful Valentine’s Day ideas is treating your partner to a special date night. Valentine’s Day is the perfect opportunity for you to change things up and splurge a little on an expensive restaurant you and your S.O. have been dying to try. Forget Applebee’s and Chili’s. Try and find a local restaurant with an acclaimed chef with a unique menu. And don’t forget to order a nice glass of red or a bottle of champagne to celebrate this special day.
2. Flowers
Flowers are a tried-and-true gift that go a long way. When searching for the perfect bouquet to surprise the special lady in your life, think about her favorite color, style, and personality. Every flower has a special meaning, so taking time to think about her and what flowers will make her light up with joy will make her feel extra special. And if you two live far apart or won’t see each other this February 14th, you can get Valentine’s delivery straight to her doorstep. Nothing will surprise her more than opening her door to see a bountiful bouquet with a thoughtful message sent from you.
3. Chocolate
Mmm chocolate. Valentine’s Day is the one holiday where indulging in decadent chocolate and sweets is acceptable. Whether you find an edible arrangement with chocolate-covered strawberries or a heart-shaped box filled with an assortment of chocolatey treats, her heart (and stomach) will be full!
4. Necklace
If you’re in a more serious relationship and shelling out a few extra dollars won’t break the bank, you can’t go wrong with a simple necklace. To wow the man in your life, err on the minimalist side, such as a gold or silver chain that is sleek and stylish. For the lucky lady, consider a necklace with a heart-shaped pendant or her birthstone.
5. Card
Nothing will take away the pure joy of opening up a homemade card. Sure, cards from the supermarket or Hallmark will get your point across, but a card you hand-crafted yourself with your own message will serve as the ultimate keepsake. All you need is some markers, construction paper, and a pen to make his or her Valentine’s Day unforgettable.
6. Spa Day
It can be easy to get caught up in the day-to-day tasks that consume our lives. Going to work, meal prepping, running errands. All of these mundane activities can make us forget about the person we chose to spend our lives with. Take a load off for you and your partner by booking a spa day. Warm baths, a soothing massage, and tranquility will allow you two to disconnect to reconnect. And if a spa day is out of the budget, you can create your own spa at home with scented candles, relaxing music, and a warm bath and bath bomb.
7. Framed Photo
Do you have a special memory of you and your significant other that you’ll cherish forever? Bring it to life by getting it printed and placing it in a frame. This will serve as an excellent home decor or office piece that will allow your Valentine’s to remember how much they love you. You can also consider putting your favorite photo of you two on a mug, pillow, or even a blanket. Photo gift ideas are endless, so get creative!
8. Weekend Getaway
If you really want to go all out this Valentine’s Day, you can’t go wrong with a weekend getaway. Maybe it’s to an isolated cabin in the mountains or a tropical getaway in the Caribbean. Either way, taking time to escape from your daily routine to relax and reconnect will be great for any relationship. Today, traveling is much easier and affordable, thanks to sites like Airbnb and Turo, that give you more options for places to stay and cars to drive.
Key Takeaways
Valentine’s Day is a holiday where you can remind your significant other just how much they mean to you. From simple Valentine’s Day gift ideas like a date night at your favorite restaurant or a bouquet of flowers to more grandiose ideas like a spa day or weekend getaway, these gift ideas are sure to impress.
