Buy your loved one this watch, showing that you really care! This has everything your special one needs- helps you track your health and fitness, frees you from accessing your phone again and again, and oh! It looks so cool, you can’t miss it! What’s better?

2. Gift an Experience

 Plan a special experience for the two of you, such as a weekend getaway, a cooking class, or a concert. If you are one of those adventurous couples, give the gift of an adventure by booking a fun activity, such as skydiving, hot air ballooning, or a guided hike. Excited already, are we?

3. Unwind with Couples Spa Day

Treat yourself and your partner to a relaxing spa day with massages, facials, and other treatments. If both of you are really into gym and fitness, sign up for a fitness class together, such as yoga, dance, or kickboxing, and make it a fun way to bond and get fit.

4. Heart-shaped Pizza for Two, anyone?

Write handwritten secret messages stating why you love your partner as a Valentine’s Day gift. It is best to have 14 bottles ready, signifying the date. You can write these messages on different colored papers and add a bit of confetti, thermocol, or glitter into the bottles for the extra oomph.

6. Personalized Accessories

One thing everyone wants and deserves on this special day is something personalized and customized. Nothing will appeal more than a gift with a personal touch. Buy a passport cover with this cool luggage tag and surprise your partner. You can also consider a personalized gift such as a custom photo book, a monogrammed wallet, or a custom-engraved watch.

7. Love book

8. ‘Remember that Time’ Memory Gifts

Create a memory book or a scrapbook filled with pictures, tickets, and other mementos from your relationship. Get creative with a DIY gift or a sentimental item, such as a custom-made photo frame or a shadow box filled with memories from your relationship.

9. Couples pillow

This gift is a perfect, lovable one, especially for those cute, cuddle moments. Surprise your partner with a soft and fluffy cushion with both your names and the date when either one of y’all proposed, it being a constant reminder of your journey of love.

10. Travel Board
