30 Fun Gift Ideas That Say "You Two Are My Favorite Couple"
"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links."
As someone whose job is shopping, I can confirm that while it’s tricky to find presents for a friend, it’s way harder to pick out gifts for couples. I mean, now you have to consider two sets of preferences, aesthetics, inside jokes, allergies, clothing sizes, and who knows what else to make sure your present doesn’t get returned within a week. Cue the procrastination, amiright? Not with this list!
Let’s talk context. Are you in search of a holiday gift for your newly-married cousin, an engagement present for your former college bestie, or a small token of appreciation for a couple who watched your dog while you were traveling? This list has plenty of small-yet-thoughtful options, like candles and monogrammed luggage tags that celebrate a brand new last name. But if you really want to show this couple that they’re some of your favorite people on the entire planet, you can choose something that’ll help them furnish their new life together like a sexy vacuum (I said what I said!) or an abstract painting. These bigger ticket items are great for couples that recently bought a home or moved in together and could use a lil help furnishing their new home.
Ready to temporarily put away your relationship FOMO and cross this purchase off your to-do list? Keep scrolling to find the ultimate selection of gifts for couples of all shapes and sizes, below.
