Three Stone Diamond Engagement Rings: One of the Five romantic gifts to surprise her in your honeymoon


Your honeymoon days are the most memorable moments of your life. To make them more interesting you can add some spicy romantic gifts that can act as a surprise. Here are some ideas which you can ponder upon.
1.      The honeymoon destination
A gift does not always have to be in any physical form. In fact, your honeymoon destination itself can be a great gift for your wife. Choose a place that she has not visited yet. To be more precise about the destination, ask her which place she would like to visit. Let your interests take a backseat. Give importance to her likes and dislikes. A honeymoon at her preferred destination can make her day.
2.      A jewelry gift
A set of classic solitaire diamond engagement rings or three stone diamond engagement rings could be one of the best presents you can give your wife. Vintage diamond engagement rings are one of those costly items out there. It may suck out a month’s salary from you (though it depends which one you buy). However, the joy the jewelry set gives your wife is invaluable. After all, whatever you earn and the efforts you take to lead a good life are all for your family. So don’t be a miser on this count.
3.      A scrapbook
A scrapbook or a photo album is another idea you can use to surprise her. But do not give a plain scrapbook to her. Paste some of your photos in the scrapbook to set the ball rolling. Leave some space for her pictures. The combination of the pictures can be a good collection.
If you have a hand at drawing, then draw caricatures that represent you and your wife. Make a comic story out of the series of images. Describe your feelings and your love through the images. It will not only make her emotional, but also increase the feeling of trust and belief unto you.
4.      A dance party
There are dance parties available at hotels. Get involved in the dance party along with other couples. Romantic soft music plays in the background. While you look eye-to-eye and dance, the music plays its part of hitting the cupid arrows. Such moments take your closer to each other. After all, these are the moments which one is expected to enjoy in one’s honeymoon. You should consider yourself to be lucky if you get to enjoy them.
5.      Take a romantic bath with her
How about this unusual gift? There are hotels which have rooms where there are bathtubs for two. Bathing in the same tub can be a nerve biting experience. It would not be exaggeration to say that both of you are experiencing the bath for the first time. Of course, this gift is on the naughtier side of all the others mentioned here.
To make things more interesting, fill up the bath tub with rose petals and scented oils. Use air freshener before calling her inside the bathroom. Call her only when everything is set. Then enjoy the moments in each other’s arms.
