10 Best Gifts for Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day is a time to celebrate love and romance, but it can also be overwhelming trying to find the right gift. If you're looking for something thoughtful, sweet and romantic, these ideas will help take all the guesswork out of your search.

A red rose bouquet.

Roses are the traditional gift for Valentine's Day, and they make an excellent choice if you're not sure what to get. Roses are a symbol of love and romance, but they also have practical uses: their fragrance can be used to mask other odors in your home or office, while their thorns can be used as impromptu weapons against encroaching monsters (or annoying coworkers who keep stealing your lunch).

Roses come in many varieties, including red roses with long stems (which are best suited for use as a weapon), pink roses that smell like cotton candy (great for romantic evenings spent snuggling up on the couch), yellow roses that smell like sunshine (perfect for those who prefer more sunny personalities), and white-petaled blooms that grow everywhere from back yards all over Colorado Springs to the wilds outside DC.

A box of chocolates.

What's better than chocolate? Chocolate with your loved one's name on it. Whether you're looking to make a big romantic gesture or just want to say "I love you," this personalized box of chocolates will definitely do the trick. Your sweetheart can enjoy the rich, creamy goodness of these treats for months and months—and when they're all gone, at least their heart will be full!

Personalized couple t-shirt

Personalized couple t-shirts are a great gift idea for Valentine’s Day. You can get them in any color and style, with any words or pictures you want. These personalized t-shirts allow you to show your love in a fun way!

A bottle of wine.

Even if you’re not a wine aficionado, it can still be a great gift to give your significant other. If they do like wine (or want to try it), you’ll be helping them explore the world of vino. And if they don’t like wine… well, I guess this is the perfect opportunity for them to learn how?

A bottle of red or white will always go over well with anyone who drinks alcohol—and even if they don’t drink at all, there are plenty of other things you can do with alcohol besides just drinking it: cook with it or put some in a hot tub! If that doesn't sound good enough then maybe get something else instead.

A cozy sweater.

Sweaters are a classic gift for Valentine's Day. They're cozy, and they make you feel warm and fuzzy inside, which is the feeling we want to hold onto as long as possible during February!
Sweaters can be casual or dressy. There are sweaters in all shapes, sizes, colors and materials—from cotton to cashmere to wool. You might even find one that's made from recycled plastic bottles!
The best part about sweaters is that they're easy to dress up or down. If you want something more casual with jeans on Friday night (or Friday afternoon because work), go for it! But if you're going out on Saturday night with your sweetheart, simply pair your sweater with some heels and a sparkly necklace—now that's looking good!

Monogrammed pajamas.

Monogrammed pajamas are a fun and thoughtful gift for any couple. Whether you're a newlywed, have been together for years, or are just dating someone, monogrammed pajamas are a great way to say "I love you" without feeling cheesy. Plus, they're useful and good-looking!

A piece of jewelry.

A piece of jewelry is one of the most popular Valentine's Day gifts. You can get a piece customized with their initials, or choose something that reflects their personality and interests, like a chess set or some dinosaur-themed earrings. If you're looking for something to represent your relationship, consider getting them the same symbol as you have tattooed on your body; it'll be meaningful and unique!

Book of poetry

Poems are the perfect way to express your love for someone. Poems can be romantic, funny, or sentimental—they're a great way to show how you feel about the person you care about. You don't have to be an expert poet either; poems can come from anyone's heart!

While poetry books may seem like an old-fashioned gift that's been left in the dust of social media and memes, sometimes there’s nothing better than curling up with a good book of poems while sipping on some tea. You can find many different books at bookstores or online: try browsing through Amazon’s selection here or Barnes & Noble’s here.

Perfume or cologne.

Perfume or cologne is a great gift for Valentine's Day. You can buy a nice bottle of perfume or cologne at a department store. You can also buy a small bottle of perfume or cologne at the drugstore.

An experience, like a spa day or a cooking class.

Miniature golf! It's the perfect pick for anyone who loves golf but doesn't have the time to play on their own course. This can be done as an activity with friends or significant others (just keep it casual), or you can do a date night out by yourself in order to take advantage of some alone time while still having something fun planned. Either way, you'll get to spend quality time together while also getting good exercise!

Something unique to your relationship, like a humorous tee shirt or a framed collage of photos from your favorite memories together.

Something you can do together, like tickets to see your favorite band in concert or an activity like rock climbing.
A gift for their pets, if they have any!

If you're unsure what to get your loved one for Valentine's Day, these ideas can inspire you!

You can get a gift that is unique to your relationship. If there's something the two of you do together regularly or enjoy doing together, consider a present related to that activity. This could be tickets to see your favorite band in concert or tickets to go see the latest movie or play together. If it's one of those things where it works both ways (like going out for dinner), then this could double as an outing too!
You can get a gift that will make them smile. If they already have everything they need but maybe aren't so much into material things, consider getting something small and sentimental instead—a photo album full of old photos of the two of you together, maybe? Or perhaps pick up some fresh flowers from the florist on their way home from work and leave them on their pillow when no one else is around (and if there are kids involved in this relationship then maybe try not leaving any evidence behind).
You can get a gift that will make them feel special. If your partner loves feeling cared about by others but doesn't necessarily need anything specific right now (say they already have all the clothes they need), consider getting them something nice like jewelry or perfume/cologne since these things tend to be used daily anyway!
