A surprise she’ll never forget!

Your wife’s birthday is the perfect opportunity to show her how much you love her. But planning the perfect surprise isn’t easy, especially when you’ve been married for a while. Fret not, I’m here to help you out. Here are 6 incredibly sweet and romantic birthday surprises for your wife!

The way to a woman’s heart is through her stomach!

A perfect start to her birthday!

I’m sure you’ve heard this suggestion a hundred times before but that doesn’t make it any less special. I can’t pinpoint what it is about having someone bring you breakfast in bed that makes it so romantic, but it is just one of the things that will never fail to make me smile. You don’t have to cook an elaborate spread. Just a basic breakfast plated beautifully will do the trick. This will prove to be a great start for her birthday.

What’s more surprising than a surprise party!

A surprise party never fails!

Nothing beats a good surprise birthday party. My husband threw a surprise party for my birthday last year and even though I’ve had my share of surprise parties in our 10+ years of marriage, it still managed to make my heart flutter. The key to a good surprise party lies in good planning. Instead of throwing a party at your place or a restaurant, book a resort. Or take her to a place that’s special to her and invite all the guests over there.

Send her on a treasure hunt!

For the next birthday, give your wife a gift that will put her sleuthing skills to use outside of Facebook and Instagram. Send her on a treasure hunt with strategically placed clues that will lead her to the final big surprise (you choose the big surprise). This surprise will definitely give her an adrenaline rush.

Make her a mixtape!

Going old-school!

The simplest gifts are the best. For your wife’s next birthday, why not take the old-school route and make her a mixtape? Make a playlist of all her favourite songs and present it to her on her birthday. You don’t even have to make a cassette. A playlist on Spotify does the trick too.

Take her on a spa retreat!

A treat she deserves!

Whisking your wife away for a weekend getaway is a good idea. What’s better is taking her on a spa retreat that will leave her relaxed and happy. Take her on a spa retreat the next birthday and let her get pampered head to toe. Several spa and wellness retreats offer stay+spa packages for couple, but I suggest booking one in advance as they are usually sold out quite quickly.

Make some changes!

Helping her out is the best gift you can give her!

One of the best gifts you can give your wife is working on yourself and being a better person for her.  Is there something that she wishes you did differently? Maybe, help her with the chores or spend more time with her or use a coaster for once in your life! For her next birthday, take a vow to work on your quirks and be a better partner. She will treasure this more than any materialistic gift!
