Romantic Gift Ideas Anyone Can Use

The perfect romantic gift should be as unique as the person you are giving it to. What would your beloved like to have? What would they least expect? These ideas will get you started - you can add your own spin to each of them to make them as personal as possible.

Personalized short story or novel. If your beloved is an avid reader, why not surprise them with their own personalized story? You can contact a ghostwriter to handle this for you. Whether you want a sweet love story or a down and dirty erotic one, you can incorporate everything about your lover into the story - and give them the surprise of their life!

A weekend getaway. Does your partner work too hard? Sweep them away for a long weekend away from all their responsibilities. Make sure you spend all your time doing nothing but relaxing - and maybe having some hot loving at night, of course!

A day at the spa. Nothing spells "love" like a man who will drop his woman off at the spa, give her a wave, and tell her to have a good time - all on his credit card. Indulge your beloved with anything she wants for one day at an all-inclusive spa. She will come back feeling refreshed and renewed.

A message in a bottle. Don't have a lot of money to spend? Say what you feel with a message in a bottle. Pick up a gorgeous bottle at a flea market or yard sale, clean it up until it shines, and write a love letter on nice stationery. Scroll the paper, tie it with a thin bow, and slip it into the bottle. Cork it and give it to the object of your affection.

Design your own board game. This can take some time, but it's incredibly fun! Create a board game for the two of you by using an old board game as a guide. You can change the instructions and the places to reflect things that matter to the two of you, and plan a nice surprise for the person who wins.

Limousine at the curb. Make the usual dinner night out a fancy affair by renting a limousine for her. Pick her up at home where all her neighbors can see - and watch them all get jealous!

Collection of music. Choose music you know your partner loves but they would never buy for themselves, like that expensive Beatles album they have been eyeing at the music store. Put a bow on it and present it, then listen to it while sipping a bottle of wine.

Pampered evening. Give your lover your full attention for one evening. Fill the tub with bubbles, pop the champagne, and massage them from head to toe. And that's just for starters!

A pencil sketch of your beloved. Take a photograph of your lover to a pencil artist and commission a small work that reflects the beauty you see in them. Present it to them in a nice frame.

A tattoo of your lover's initials. Ready to declare your permanent love? Do it with permanent ink? Your lover's initials on your body is a sign that you're in it for the long haul - and it's romantic, too.
