5 simple ways to make your partner’s birthday special

Whether you’ve been with your partner for a few weeks or a few years, celebrating their birthday is the perfect opportunity to show that special person just how much you care about them. The older you get, the more birthdays tend to be overlooked, which is why making a fuss over your partner on their next birthday is sure to earn you extra brownie points! If you’d like to make some simple gestures to show that you care, but aren’t sure of where to get started, then here are five simple things that you can do to make your partner’s birthday one to remember.

 

Start the celebrations early

When you are trying to give someone the best birthday possible, the way in which you start the morning can set the whole tone for the rest of the day. Therefore, you should try to start the celebrations as soon as your partner is awake and ready to begin the day. Greet them with breakfast in bed, bombard them with hugs and kisses, and make them feel extra special on this one day a year that is all about them!

Put thought into their birthday card

Birthday cards are often overlooked as something to accompany a gift. But, when chosen correctly, a card can be just as much of a gift in themselves as any other present. A lot can be accomplished in a card: they can be the perfect way to tell someone how much you love them through poetic words or a way to make them laugh by giving them rude cards which will appeal to their sense of humour.

 

Decorate the house

If you want to get your partner in the mood to celebrate their birthday in style, then nothing says ‘party’ like some birthday decorations. Fill the house with everything from balloons and banners to confetti and create a truly magical celebratory atmosphere that will really make your partner smile. Not only that, but they are bound to appreciate the work and thought that goes into you taking the time to decorate the house just for them.

Provide them with all their favourite treats

When you are trying to make your partner’s birthday extra special, a simple box of chocolates and a bunch of flowers just isn’t going to cut it. Go that extra mile, and get the little things that they can enjoy throughout the day, whether that means cooking them all their favourite meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, or just stocking up on their favourite treats; it’s often the smaller gestures that make the biggest difference to creating joy.

Choose a thoughtful gift

Anyone can buy someone a gift, which is why generic gifts are not going to go a long way to make this day special for your partner. Think about the sorts of things your partner likes and would appreciate receiving. Are they more materialistic, or do they prefer sentimental gifts? Would they prefer something they can keep or being gifted with an experience that they can actively participate in? Would they like something fun or something practical? Once you know what you want your gift to accomplish, you’ll find it much easier to find the perfect present.
