5 Best Valentine's Day Gift Ideas for Him and Her

Romantic love is celebrated all over the world every year on Valentine's Day. Couples arrange classy meals in fancy restaurants and intimate dinners at home each year to celebrate their relationship.

Red is the predominant colour of the day and the evening. Greeting cards depicting hearts and flowers in romantic arrangements are exchanged between lovers with gifts which are usually wrapped in red ribbon & bows. Cupid the god of desire, erotic love, attraction, and affection is the symbol of the day and his image is often set among the flowers and the ribbons on greeting cards.

The lights are turned low and candles are used instead to set the scene for a romantic evening. Gifts are exchanged, questions are popped and promises are given.

Couples who dine out are usually given special treatment on St Valentine's night, they are often presented with roses as part of the evening package.

Here are a list of 5 unique Valentine's Day gift ideas for him and for her:

• Some couples who are in the early stages of a relationship may prefer to keep the gift-giving light. Just treating each other to a evening of light-hearted romantic fun, a shared bottle of bubbly, chocolates and flowers is all that's needed.
• Many couples who are without commitments may give each other the gift of a night in a fancy hotel being pampered with a lovely meal, wine or champagne, and all the trimmings.
• Marriage and commitment proposals are often planned for, made and accepted during a romantic dinner on Valentine's evening. The form of these proposals depend on the creativity of the proposer - one lovely idea is to serve wine or bubbly in a laser engraved glass with the question 'Will You Marry Me?'. If s/he is feeling lucky it might be worthwhile having another glass engraved with the single word 'YES'. 
• Some couples may already have discussed their future life together and have chosen St Valentine's Day to make their decision public. In this instance, the engagement ring has already been chosen and set aside to make its first public appearance on the most romantic day of the year.
• It's a personal decision for couples, whether a couple go out to celebrate or opt for a cosy night at home. Couples with a young family often make Valentine's night a 'Date Night' and send their little darlings for a sleep-over with grandparents, so they as a couple can enjoy a brief uninterrupted evening all to themselves with a nice meal, warm fire, bottle of bubbly and some chocolates - most busy parents of young children agree this is the best Valentine's Gift.
