Even
though Valentine’s day is one of the most awaited celebrations for couples
across the world, it can be the cause of a lot of undue stress. The culprit
here is not the love in the air but the gift that is expected by both partners
in a relationship. A good gift can lead to a blissful Valentine’s day, but a
bad one can lead to trouble. To get ahead of the problem then, here are a few
ideas about things you can gift your valentine this February.
1. Jewellery
There
is a reason jewellery is considered a safe bet when gifting someone. Unless
your partner is averse to bling, something sparkly from the Jewellers should
always be the first choice to ensure a happy valentine's day. Whether it is a
ring, a necklace, cufflinks, or a bejewelled watch you can never go wrong with
this option. You also don't have to buy a real diamond, a unique piece of
jewellery from the flea market with a beautiful story would also suffice, you'd
have to narrate the story as well as the salesman though. Buy the most
appropriate piece of jewellery within your budget and rest assured your partner
will love it.
2. Personalised Gifts
While
PDA might make people uncomfortable, on Valentine's day, you can never be
blamed for showing off your love. A personalised gift might be a way of doing
so. Here are a few ideas for personalised gifts, you could get your pictures
framed or printed on any number accessories, or get bags and wallets custom
made with your names or initials displayed on them, or get a personalised cake
made for both of you, or even get 3D printed comic figurines of both of you
like a quirky gift. Gifting a unique item that has both of your mark on it, is
one of the best
Valentines gifts ever.
3. Gift a Holiday
Plan
a trip for you and your partner and gift them the tickets and itinerary for
valentine’s day. If there’s any place that is significant for you two as a
couple, a place where you met for example, or somewhere you both have always
wanted to travel, planning a secret trip for the both of you there could be the
romantic valentine’s day gift of your partner’s dreams.
Those
of you who are married for a while could even consider revisiting the place you
went for your honeymoon and relive the romantic memories on the day of love.
4. Spirit
of Choice
If
you and your partner like wine or even scotch, valentine's day provides the
perfect excuse for splurging on a good quality bottle – preferably shared by
just the two of you on a cosy night in. Wine and Spirits can be rather
expensive if you want something ultra-special and if you both enjoy the
occasional indulgence, it can be a perfect gift for valentines. Across
cultures, drinking good quality alcohol has always been an experience that is
enjoyed with company. Wouldn't having a wine laced romantic evening be perfect
for the two of you? So go ahead and buy the best you can afford. Tie a bow
around it and buy a single rose and give yourself an evening with your
valentine.
