Pakistanis love to celebrate love in all its forms, and what better day to celebrate it, other than Valentine’s. Valentine’s Day is not only for intimate relationships; it’s a day of love that should be celebrated with friends and family members, with more than just a wish.
Social media wishes have become clichés, but the right gift can make a big impression on your loved ones. Here I have listed the top 10 gift ideas for Valentine’s Day, which are sourced from ShopArcade, Pakistan’s most trusted destination for flowers and gifts.
1. Rose Bouquet
Roses are the most timeless and classic Valentine’s Day gift. Instead of a single rose, a very well-arranged red rose bouquet is an ideal way to convey “I love you”. This classic gift idea will show your thoughtfulness and admiration for the person you are sending the gift to.
There are many florists who are now creating preserved rose boxes that can last for months, but there is something about a fresh bouquet that a preserved one cannot match. At ShopArcade, we have multiple top-of-the-line arrangements of flowers with several other mini gifts as well.
2. Customized Jewelry
Jewelry, as a gift, is now very popular among men and women. When personalised with subtle details, it shows that you have actually put your thought into the gift.
For ladies, there are dainty pendants, rings, or bracelets that are popular. You can even stamp them with significant dates or initials to serve as keepsakes. For guys, chain bracelets, trendy wrist bands, and rings are quite in these days.
3. Chocolate Gift Baskets
Everyone, including children, men, and women, loves chocolates. As a gift, you can buy premium Belgian chocolates, but never make the mistake of sending chocolates alone. Chocolates look best when they are arranged in a decorated basket.
Red roses and a Ferrero Rocher box are the best choice. If you want to go overboard, add lilies or carnations. ShopArcade has different options for chocolate lovers, with personalized mugs, rose bouquets, and so much more.
4. Self-care Bundle For Her (or Him)
What better than a self-care bundle? To show people that you are into their well-being, too. A good set of skincare, body mist, and spa items is a great option to pamper your partners or loved ones.
You can choose multiple top-rated skincare products, mainly organic brands, for both men and women. For men, choose face wash, moisturizers, or beard grooming bundles.
5. Handwritten Love Letters or Memory Books
Long gone is the era of Eid cards and handwritten letters, since this generation is too stuck with social media. But let’s bring it back. Letters written by hand, or memory books that you spent time creating, will show you spent energy and time preparing the gift and would make anyone feel special.
You can additionally place pressed flowers (or drawings of flowers) in with a memory book, and/or a combination of ceramic mugs, cushions, photo frames, or jewelry boxes.
6. Perfume Sets with Floral Scents
Scent and memory are closely linked. Choose a signature scent and find a bouquet that complements some of its notes. For instance, jasmine with white lilies or a rose-scented perfume with red flowers.
At the ShopArcade, we provide multiple options with mesmerizing tones of scents for both men and women.
7. Home Decor Piece
Beautiful home décor pieces are pretty and aesthetic. You can give them to women and men who love interior design and redecorating their rooms and TV lounges.
There are many options to choose from, such as wallpapers, antique pieces, and décor items, such as a hand-painted vase, digital paintings, or beautiful light bulbs
8. Plushies with Flower Bouquets
A colorful bouquet with soft toys or plushies can make anyone happy. This combo is ideal, especially for younger couples or women who love cute gifts.
Your partner is going to remember you when they snuggle with the cozy and fluffy gift you sent them. Check out our website to find teddy bears and soft cushions with cute and personalized notes you can choose from.
9. Experience Gift — Dinners & Fun Activities
Gifts are sometimes not just tangible objects or worldly possessions. Contact a nice restaurant, arrange for an outing, or plan a romantic picnic in the garden. A dinner by candlelight with a centerpiece of flowers can be a good surprise, too.
You can also set up a surprise at home with balloons, roses, and candles. It will only improve the day, and will be a memory with your people. Visit ShopArcade to buy stuff such as balloons, candles, and roses, etc., if you are arranging a surprise at home.
10. Gourmet Gift or Sweet Treat Hamper
Pakistanis have a sweet tooth, and they love to eat sweets and cakes. A special traditional sweet basket, fruit baskets, or cakes are also a good choice. These days, cakes are the most popular.
We have lists of hampers and cakes in our gift portal, from which you can easily pick any item that you want. One tip is to pick the one that the recipient loves but rarely treats themselves to, to make it more thoughtful.
