18 Swoon-Worthy Romantic Valentine’s Day Gifts to Steal His Heart (2025 Edition)
Remember that moment when he first told you he loved you? The butterflies, the racing heart, the giddy smile you couldn’t hide? That’s exactly what a truly romantic Valentine’s Day gift should recreate.
But let’s be honest – finding that perfect romantic gift for him can feel like trying to write a love sonnet in emoji. Most Valentine’s guides focus on practical gifts or generic suggestions, missing the whole point of this love-filled celebration.
That’s why we’ve created this carefully curated list of romantic gifts that speak directly to his heart (and yours). As someone who’s spent years helping couples spark and rekindle romance, I know that the most memorable gifts aren’t just things – they’re moments, emotions, and stories waiting to unfold.
Whether you want to sweep him off his feet with grand romantic gestures or create intimate moments that are just between the two of you, this guide has you covered.
Scratch Off To Find Out Card
You know that satisfying feeling of scratching off a lotto ticket? This gift brings a romantic twist to the classic scratch-off game.
Customize this print by writing your own 14 “things” and then apply the scratch stickers. They will sure to appreciate the thought you put in and will have it to keep as a reminder of how much they are loved.
Reasons I Love You with Hershey Kisses
Want to impress the heck out of him, without blowing the bank? Here’s an idea taken straight from my own book of love:
Take Hershey’s kiss chocolates, get little plain white stickers/paper and write reasons you love him on the stickers then attach them to the bottom of each candy. Put them in a jar with a note instructing him to open one a day for the next 50 days.
I did this for Andrew when we first started dating. He then kept those stickers and turned them into a card which he gave me on our wedding day. Super romantic!
Pokemon Love Ball For the Pokemon Lover
A fun and affordable gift idea designed specifically for Pokemon lovers.
Choose from an array of super cute messages to add to the bottle and let your love one know they caught your heart. D’awwww.
A Year of Dates
Here’s another great gift idea if you and your beau love date nights, but have hit a rut when it comes to fresh new ideas.
With this box of dates, he’ll never have to worry about coming up with your Friday night date plans again! Or, well, at least for the next year. The box contains 52 sealed envelopes, each containing a new date idea (there’s one card left blank intentionally, as a surprise week off!).
You can choose between the Surprise Box or Categorized edition, which has color-coded envelopes for ‘going-out’ and ‘staying-in’ ideas.
Custom Sky Map Print
Looking for a unique, romantic gift? This custom-made print is a sweet tribute to the time and place you met each other, got married – or any other time and place that is significant!
Every time they look at this personalized sky map, they will be transported back to the first night you met. Or whichever significant moment you choose to capture in the stars.
We love that this company uses professional astronomy software to ensure accuracy when it comes to your personalized star map. They also offer numerous size and framing options, so you can be sure to find one that fits your budget and her decor sense.

Been together for a while and out of creative date night ideas? Can’t hit the town for date night due to a pandemic?

What man wouldn’t want a beautiful album staring his loved one in a photo shoot?
If you’re comfortable with the idea of a boudoir shoot, consider this option as a gift for your groom-to-be, your husband, or your boyfriend.
Hand-Written Love Letter
Probably the best gift your sweetheart could receive is a handwritten note. Nothing beats knowing that your partner sat down and took time to think about what you mean to them. A hand written love note is a romantic, priceless gesture and something they will cherish for many years to come.
Price: costs next to nothing!
However, you could splurge and buy some really nice handmade paper if you want.
Love Notes in a Bottle
Old-fashioned romantics out there will love this thoughtful gift of a traditional love note in a bottle. Extra bonus points if you ask him to watch “Message in a Bottle” with you on your next movie night (hello, even guys can’t say no to Kevin Costner!).
Beautiful presentation, sentimental, romantic, and unique!
Pure Silver Moon Coin
This sculpture is a real knockout. It’s romantic yet also fresh and funky. If your partner loves home design and enjoys minimalist or modernist looks, there’s a good chances she’ll be as nuts about it as I am.
Why I like it:
- Just the thing for an astonomer at heart
- Visual way to say you love them “to the moon and back”
- Also available as a necklace
Create Your Own Reel
There’s nothing like a walk down memory lane paired with a retro childhood toy!
This one is definitely for the sentimental one.
While the viewfinder looks like something from the 80s, rest assured there’s a 21st century twist. With this gadget, you upload your favorite pics using a redemption code that comes with the viewfinder to create a personalized reel for your sweetheart. D’awwwww.
Come to think of it, you might want to include a hankie with this gift!
“I Love You Because” Wooden Box
A wooden box for the hopeless romantics. Who wouldn’t appreciate a gift with this much time and thought put into it?
This handmade box contains 52 heart-shaped wooden tags on which you can declare your love for them. Think of it as a love advent calendar – they will have one to read for each week of the coming year. Choose to engrave your initials and write your messages or have them engraved by the professionals.
Solid Gold XO (Hugs and Kisses) earrings
A set of stud earrings is almost always a safe bet (unless they don’t have their ears pierced – be sure to check on that!).
We fell in love with these tiny treasures the moment we saw them!
These sweet earrings are just the right size to wear for special occasions or day-to-day. At just 4mm, they sit perfectly on the ear without overwhelming it.
What really caught our eye was how each XO is carefully handforged – these aren’t mass-produced pieces coming off an assembly line.
You can choose between brushed or polished finish, and pick from yellow, rose, or white gold in different karats.
