Celebrate Your Favorite Love Story With the Perfect Gifts for a Couple
Whether you are looking for a gift to get an engaged couple that’s headed down the aisle soon, or you want to do something special for two people in your life that you are ultimate third wheel for- (in a loving way, we love Steves in this house), you’ve come to the right place because we are going to be going over a list of perfect gifts for a couple.
These can range from sickeningly sentimental to things they could use around the house. We've taken to looking for gifts that will elicit an “aww” from both of them because this isn’t just about one person, no, this is about finding gifts that work for two people. Obviously there are a lot of options out there for couples gifts so we’re going to take this one a time so you can decide which ones will work for the two people you call family.
Let’s Get Sentimental: Bring Out The Cheesy 🧀
As much as it might be cliche to go with something that’s overly lovey-dovey, we couldn’t not choose a few gifts that will tug at their heart strings. We’re all about celebrating love here at PerfectGift and we wanna do so in style, so here’s some gifts we’ve found that will make them all misty-eyed:
Have their favorite pictures rotate throughout the day! Image courtesy of: Best Buy.
Photo frames keep captured memories on display for all who visit to see, but most importantly for the household to see everyday. Nowadays though you can take your basic wooden frame(s) and change it to a digital landscape where you can have not just one photo displayed but many. The Aura Home - Carver 10" Digital Wifi Frame for $139.99 at Best Buy would make for a great gift to the couple because you can preload them with pictures you have saved in your library or they can add photos they have from theirs. It has unlimited storage (for free) so you can add as many photos as you want all through your phone.
Get a custom portrait of a moment in their lives. Image courtesy of Etsy user: CustomYourMoment.
We’re not done with the picture quite yet as we have to tell you about this Couple Proposal Portrait from Etsy user CustomYourMoment on sale for $10.70+ (normally priced at $16.45+). It is a “personalised pen sketch based on your favourite photograph,” and is drawn with pen and watercolor so it makes the moment immortalized through art in a very adorable way. Get a photo they love and send it to this Etsy user where they will make their photo come to life through the swirls and whirls of watercolor. And we should say that it is advertised as a “proposal” gift but you can get any photo drawn- not just an engagement.
The stars reflect a memory in a photo frame. Image courtesy of: The Night Sky.
We’ve found this gift before and we couldn’t help ourselves from adding it to this gift guide as well because it really is the perfect gift for a couple. The stars are always there watching over us and more importantly, watching over the big moments in our lives. And through a company called The Night Sky you can have the stars from a special night in the couples life captured on frame for them to hang up in their home. It’s a high-quality print of a “map of stars” that were up in the sky on the location of a specific day you choose. You can pick their engagement date, the day they met, or their anniversary. The Night Sky Classic Star Map Print from $39.00 comes in eight different colors, and has four different printing styles: Classic, Foil, Glow In The Dark, and Canvas.
Keep all of your travels together in one book. Image courtesy of: Amazon.
Fans of the Pixar movie: “Up” will immediately recognize the “Our Adventure Book Travel Diary Photo Book” which is on Amazon for $25.99. At the very (bittersweet) beginning of the movie we see a montage of a couple’s life and there's the iconic Adventure Book which takes moments from all of their adventures and keeps them in pages. If the couple are big travelers then this could make for an awesome gift because they too will be able to create their own book through all of their ventures on the road, through the sky, and sailing on the seas.
Cute and Classic Gifts For Couples
Now that we’ve got our tears wiped away we can look onto our next batch of gifts which are a little bit silly but also kinda cute.
Add some sparkle to their morning routine. Image courtesy of: Robert Kline Art.
Most people have a mug of something in the mornings (or maybe in the afternoon for a little pick-me-up), and if you know the couple likes to indulge in coffee and/or tea in the morning then this set of the porcelain Kissing Mugs Set for $63.00 from Robert Kline Art would make for a downright adorable present. You can get it in either Blue & Gray or Red & Tan. A gift good for any occasion really.
Take a normal date night and get creative! Image courtesy of: Painting to Gogh.
If you’re on social media you might have seen the trend of “painting your partner without them seeing the progress and then showing it to them when it’s all done.” Well we thought we’d hop on that and give you the supplies to do it…but in a slightly different way. See Painting to Gogh makes these Couples Painting Kits and they just came out with their Anime-zing Portraits package for $79.98 which gives the couple: Set of 5 Brushes (2), 16x20 Canvas (2), Acrylic Paints, Disposable Palette & Apron (2), and a Video Tutorial Access. Should they choose to follow the tutorial they will be able to make their portraits look a little bit better than what a freehand drawing could look like. However if you think they’d like the idea of going balls to the wall- then they now have the supplies to do it.
Create your own sculpture at home. Image courtesy of: Amazon.
Another trend that was popular a few years ago is creating a mold of your hand(s) through these kits you can buy online to keep displayed in your home. The Luna Bean Hand Casting Kit on sale for $33.22 (normally priced at $44.99) at Amazon is what we classify as a “silly-fun” gift for the couple. They can create a perfect mold of themselves holding hands and then once it’s done they can either paint it or keep it as it and put it on their shelf next to a portrait of the two of them.
This candle makes for a perfect gift to the couple. Image courtesy of: Birthdate Co.
As much as we love The Night Sky, we do also have the shoutout Birthdate Co. for being a company that offers you, the buyer, great options for gifts and this one nailed it right on the head. The Anniversary Candle on sale for $69.99 (normally priced at $84.99) is a personalized candle where you can select their anniversary date (or a date that means a lot to them), add their names, and then get it shipped right to their door. The scent is chosen for you and it is Sage, Frankincense, and Oakmoss which is quite lovely if we do say so ourselves.
Gift Them An Experience
And finally we decided that rather than end the list with giving the couple more “physical” gifts, we can instead give them an experience thanks to Giftory:
Make a date night that the two of them won’t forget! Image courtesy of: Giftory.
Giftory is a company that offers premiere packages for birthdays, holidays, couples, and events all throughout the year. This is their Mystery Picnic Date for Two that’s Nationwide which is $120 and comes in at an impressive 4.6/5 stars on Trustpilot. And we have to tell you that this isn’t just a date, no this is a scavenger hunt throughout the city they live in that will lead them to getting their food and drinks they will be eating by following clues laid out by the team behind the company. And once the adventure is complete and the puzzle has been solved they will get to enjoy their meal in a beautiful secluded spot where they can talk and laugh and be them: a couple.
Good and Easy Gifts for a Couple
We love the cheesy, yet endearing gifts we’ve found for our favorite two people, but we thought we’d give a few more options so they themselves can pick and choose what they want to do. Here are five gift cards we think any couple would like to get:
🏠Airbnb: Airbnb is an online marketplace for vacation home and condo rentals all over the world. With this gift card they can pick and choose their next romantic getaway at a beachfront property, a treehouse, a countryside villa, a tiny home, a castle, a mansion, and more. Go onto the website, (or download the app), and look for your future honeymoon destination.
🚗DoorDash: We all have those days when neither one of you want to cook, but you have to eat food- that’s where DoorDash comes in. This food ordering and delivery app is the best for lazy nights in and too busy afternoons.
💸Visa: There’s nothing quite like getting money you can do whatever you want with and if they couple has a project they’ve been wanting to tackle, or a place they’d like to spend their next date night at- this a good gift for exactly that as they can use this Visa card pretty much anywhere.
🥩Morton’s Steakhouse: Wanna live out those white table clothed and candle-lit dreams? Now you can at Morton’s Steakhouse which is an upscale chain serving you all of your steakhouse favorites.
🍿AMC Theatres: And if you know they aren’t your “classy get dressed and go out to eat at a fancy restaurant” types but more of a “popcorn and movie” type than they will definitely love getting an AMC Theatres gift card they can use towards their next few dates at the movies.
