Romantic gifts

A personalised romantic gift for your special someone

If you would like to surprise your special someone with a sweet, romantic gift, whether it's for Valentine's day or just because, we’ve got you covered. Let us help you find the perfect gift for him, her or them!

How to choose a gift for your partner

Why is it so difficult to choose a romantic gift for your special someone? You would think it would be easy, as you know them so well. But despite this, it can be very hard to know what will make them happy. Especially when they seemingly have all they need. It can still be good to surprise your partner with a romantic gift every now and then. It shows that you still appreciate them and have put in some effort.

If you’re struggling, don’t worry. We have two simple questions with which you can determine which gift will make your partner happy. And if that doesn’t work, we have a list of our most popular romantic gifts as inspiration for you. You can skip the questions if you want, but they are fun to answer!

Ok, here we go. Do you have pen and paper ready?

The first question is: what does your partner really like?

Take 5-10 minutes to answer this question. Write a list of things they like: what do they like to eat and drink, what do they like to do in their spare time, what are their hobbies, what do they talk about often? You may think you know, but it will still help to write it down, as it can lead to new insights or ideas.

On to the second question: which moments you spend together are most precious to you?

Take another 5-10 minutes to answer the question. Think of the moments in which you laugh together, your most romantic moments together or the ‘first’ moments; first kiss, first date, first holiday, etc. Grab your phone and look at your favourite pictures of the two of you. Which moments are they?

Ok, so now you have two lists to help you find the perfect gift for your partner. The second list will help you with the personalisation of your gift. We personalise just about anything you can think of; mugs, cuddly toys, beer gift sets, wine bottle labels, chocolate, suitcases and so on. When you were looking at photos earlier, you will have found some of fun memories. Have these printed on your chosen gift. You can create a mug featuring a photo collage, or even a clock or duvet cover. Each time your partner uses or looks at their gift, they’ll think of you and those lovely memories you share.

Why it’s important to surprise your partner every now and then

It is often said that men are especially bad at understanding why women like to receive a gift sometimes. Whether this is true or not, we do understand! When your partner brings you a gift or sets up a romantic date, it shows they care. You can choose to bring home an easy gift, such as a bunch of flowers, any time. But sometimes you need something a bit more special. Whatever the reason or occasion, a gift will show them that you don’t take them for granted and still appreciate them wanting to spend their life with you. So if you’d like to score some serious points in the romance department, get started now!

The best romantic gifts for him and her

A romantic surprise is the best way to show someone how much you love them. Whether for Valentine's Day, a birthday or an anniversary, any occasion is perfect to surprise someone! A romantic gift is a gift from the heart. It doesn't have to be expensive, it just has to be heartfelt. Perhaps you can go for his favourite brand of chocolate and make it extra special by adding a sweet message, or you can give him the tastiest beer served in a glass featuring his name. A romantic gift may not be about the gift itself at all, but the thought behind it and the way it is given. For example, you can declare all your love in a letter or card, or give the gift during a romantic nature walk.

When giving a gift, it is very important to convey all of your affection. To do this, you can put a little thought into the moment and the way you give the gift to the recipient. There are a number of elements in gift-giving that can work in your favour. You just need to know a few little tricks to make the gift feel truly original and unique. Essentially, there are three main elements when it comes to giving a present to a person: the message, the moment of exchange and the gift itself. Let's see how to make your gift truly romantic using these three elements:

• Go for a card with a special phrase: Think of a book you both love, a poem, a line from a song or simply an expression you both use. Use words to show how strong your bond is. A tip is to give the card first with a sentence or message that "prepares" the person for the gift, so you can increase the surprise effect or reinforce the meaning of the gift.

• Choose a suitable moment: Don't assume that any old moment is good for giving a romantic gift. Think of a special place, a place where you can make the gift recipient feel comfortable. It's important to put people in the right mood before you surprise them, make sure you have their attention and are focused on the moment; only then will they truly appreciate your gift.

• Think of a gift that only you can give: Before you spend money on expensive and luxurious products, ask yourself what really binds you together, what you have in common or what experiences have brought you together and made your relationship extraordinary. Have you taken a trip together? Do you share a particular passion? Have you just moved into a new home? Or do you have a baby on the way?

Prepare these three elements with care and you will see that you will involve the person to whom you have dedicated this thought on a much deeper and more heartfelt level.
