5 Extraordinary Ways To Make Your Wife’s Christmas Special

This holiday season, make your wife feel like a queen with a gift like none other. Whether you’ve been saving for a thoughtful gesture or coming in hot with absolutely no ideas, our guide to creating an unforgettable Christmas for your partner will save the day. Wondering what the secret to a memorable gift is? Here’s a clue - not material items. 

Yes, you read that right. While a lovely necklace or a skincare set will do the job, you need to consider creating a wholesome experience for her. Think about spending a day filled with adventure and then retiring to a countryside escape for the night or an evening full of dance and music at the theatre followed by a scrumptious dinner. Now these experiences are sure to make it one of the best Christmas gifts ever. 

Below, we’ve created 5 extraordinary plans for you to choose from based on her preferences.

1. An Evening With The Stars

Does your wife love an occasion to dress up? Treat her to a glamorous evening out where she can indulge in experiences curated specially for people with fine taste. Head to London’s West End - the address for iconic theatre shows. From Wicked, Back To The Future - The Musical to The Play That Goes Wrong, she can pick her favourite. Take it up a notch by surprising her to a Michelin-star dining experience complete with a delectable meal and fine wine to accompany. The theatre experience is a great choice to make your wife feel special on Christmas, but the Michelin dinner will surely be the cherry on the cake. 

Recommended plan-

• 1.30 pm: Arrive in London

• 2.00 pm: Arrive at the theatre

• 2.30 pm: Brace yourself as the show begins

• 6.00 pm: Leave the theatre after a magical experience

• 6.30 pm: Reach the Michelin-star restaurant early for your reservation and enjoy a cocktail

• 7.00 pm: Indulge in an unforgettable dining experience

2. Off The Bucket List

If she’s an outdoorsy bug, she’ll surely love zipping through the air with views of the UK’s gorgeous countryside. Make this into a shared memory by taking the plunge with your partner. For a full day’s worth of adventures, opt for the Bear Grylls experience packed with challenging courses. Not enough adrenaline for you? Opt for the All Inclusive Pass to Gripped London where she can experience multiple activities like zip trek, high ropes, power fan, bag jump, speed slides and access to the net adventure park. 

Conclude this adventurous day out with an overnight stay at a glamping destination close to your chosen experiences. Imagine retiring to a secluded treehouse nestled amidst a beautiful woodland landscape. Rest assured that your wife will have lots of stories to tell of this exciting getaway. 

Recommended plan-

• 10.00 am: Arrive at the adventure park

• 10.30 am: Get to know the required safety instructions and get the adrenaline going

• 01.00 pm: Break for a light lunch

• 02.00 pm: Get back to thrilling activities

• 04.00 pm: Exit the park to head to your glamping destination

• 06.30 pm: Enjoy dinner at or near your accommodation

3. Fifty Shades Of Romance

Imagine recreating one of the most iconic movie scenes to make her feel like a star! Turn her Christmas present into a complete cinematic masterpiece by taking her on a helicopter ride. Whether she books the ride during the holiday season or wishes to wait for a sunny day, the ride is sure to be a magical and romantic experience. If you’re feeling adventurous, you can even opt for a ride accompanied with a glass of bubbly and box of chocolates to share with gorgeous views of the city. After the mesmerising ride, take a stroll through Hyde Park with a little picnic basket to fully embrace the experience.

• 03.00 pm: Enjoy a relaxing stroll or a romantic picnic

4. To Unwind, Relax And Rejuvenate

Has she been working a little too hard lately? Treat her to a luxurious, relaxing and rejuvenating experience by gifting her a spacation. Forget the manicure and pedicure sessions, go all out by opting for an experience that includes 55-minute or 90-minute treatment. This will give her proper time to prep before the treatment, make use of the spa facilities like the steam room and enjoy a calm evening after. You can even choose a spacation for two as a Christmas gift and redeem it on a special occasion in the coming year. 

Recommended plan-

• 01.00 pm: Check into the hotel

• 01.30 pm: Enjoy a light lunch at the hotel

• 03.00 pm: Head to the spa for your pre-booked massage

• 04.30 pm: Retire to the spa facilities to relax

• 06.30 pm: Get dressed to head out to the local dining spot

• 07.00 pm: Indulge in a cuisine of your choice

• 09.00 pm: Head back to the hotel and ask for a late checkout

5. Shop, Stir & Sip

A truly unique duo, these two experiences are like soulmates who are meant to be together. Think shopping spree, with a side of cocktails! Now, doesn’t that sound luscious. Set a budget and take her to her favourite shopping destination in the city. Make it memorable for her by helping her choose the best outfits, restock her choice of beauty products and a quick bite. Conclude the day with a few (too many) cocktails that’ll surely make her feel special. For those seeking an immersive experience, opt for a whisky or wine tasting session to create an unforgettable memory together. 

Recommended plan-

• 11.00 am: Get to her preferred shopping arcade or store

• 01.30 pm: Remember to hydrate and grab a bite

• 03.00 pm: Conclude the spree if she’s found her fits

• 04.00 pm: Head to the tasting room to indulge in some delicious drinks
