Sweetest Day is celebrated on the third Saturday of October. The purpose of this day is to do something thoughtful for important people in your life and express yourself romantically to the ones you love. So, what kind gestures do you have planned for this year?
If you’re still looking for Sweetest Day gift ideas, we’ve got you covered.
Gifts for girlfriends
Whether you’ve been dating for one week, one month, one year, or 10 years, you can never go wrong with a beautiful bouquet of roses. These flowers are recognized as a symbol of love, and we know that your lucky lady will swoon over a bouquet of roses (plus a bottle of wine!), no matter the color. Red may be traditional, but pink and yellow are favorites, too!
In addition to roses, consider the following:
- Chocolate covered strawberries...the perfect sweet treat for you two to share on Sweetest Day!
- Jewelry
- A giant stuffed bear...because what girl doesn’t want a huge bear that she can cuddle?
Gifts for boyfriends
Ladies, we know that sometimes boyfriends are difficult to shop for, but trust us when we say that there are plenty of awesome gift options for them, too. If you’ve got a special man in your life that loves to spend time outdoors barbecuing, this grill tools set will have him smiling from cheek to cheek.
Some other ideas include:
- A personalized beer pitcher and set of pint glasses
- A gear bag for his tools
- Personalized golf balls
Gifts for wives
Like we mentioned in our gifts for girlfriends section, a bouquet of roses is the perfect gift for any special lady in your life. However, roses aren’t the only flower we’d recommend for a Sweetest Day gift — there are tons of other arrangements available, too!
Along with a bouquet of flowers, your wife might like:
- A candle set filled with intoxicating scents for your home
- A bath set featuring a robe, bath salts, and soap
- Etched wine glasses with a bottle of wine
Gifts for husbands
We absolutely love these beer-making kits from Brooklyn BrewShop, and we think your husband will feel the same. These kits come with all the supplies your husband will need to home brew a one-gallon batch of beer, and they come in four varieties: American pale ale, oatmeal stout, afternoon wheat, and everyday IPA.
Additionally, your husband might also like:
- Authentic ammo box
- A coffee and donuts gift box
- A personalized frame with a photo of your family...perfect for the sentimental type!
Gifts for moms
No matter how old we get, our moms will always be one of the most important people in our lives, so we should show them how appreciated they are! If you’re shopping for a new mom, we recommend one of the gift sets found here (mom AND baby will love it).
For all other moms, we suggest the following:
- A ceramic chiller with wine
- A luxury spa basket, because all moms could use a little R&R!
- A box of the "sweetest" chocolates
Gifts for dads
Some dads may say that as long as they have their family, they have it all — but a gift for Sweetest Day certainly wouldn’t hurt! Any dad who likes hosting would love one of these entertaining gifts.
Some other ideas include:
- A plethora of snacks that they can dive into (especially perfect for football Sunday!)
- A football made from sausage (also perfect for football Sunday)
- A craft beer flight set
Gifts for daughters
We love fall flowers, and the beautiful combination of colors in fall floral arrangements makes for the perfect addition to your daughter’s desk or nightstand.
Additionally, some gifts for daughters include:
- A Time for Tea gift box
- A double money tree to wish them good fortunes
- A personalized name necklace
Gifts for sons
Have a young one at home? If so, this embroidered mini sports bag is perfect for him and will certainly keep your little one busy for hours.
However, if your son is on the older side, we think he’d enjoy:
- A bloody mary kit
- An animal-themed corkscrew, to open all those, er, soda bottles.
- Meat for the grill
