On your wife’s big day, the gift you choose needs to do two things: make her feel like the most special person in the world and affirm that you, as her partner, understand her on a level that no one else possibly could. We’ve curated a list of gift ideas that will deliver the moment of luxury she deserves — whether that’s upgraded gear for a hobby she loves, an opulent way to help her relax, or something to make her day-to-day routines a little more special and fun. It all depends on what she likes, what she values, and what she’ll be excited to unwrap. Luckily, you already know all that stuff. We’re just here with the gift list. (Need more ideas?

Eberjey Gisele PJ Set

For Some R&R: Eberjey’s elegant Gisele pajamas are iconic for a reason. They’re impossibly soft, feel cool and lightweight to sleep in, and hold up through plenty of washes. There are cropped and short-sleeve versions, too, if those are more her speed.
KitchenAid Stand Mixer

For the Baker: A KitchenAid stand mixer is the ultimate gift for baking enthusiasts. With 10 speeds, a 4.5-quart bowl, and a tilt-head design that lets you add ingredients while mixing, it doesn’t get much better than this for at-home baking gadgets. Plus, it looks beautiful on the countertop.
KitchenAid Pasta Roller and Cutter Attachments

For the KitchenAid Devotee: Or, if she already has a KitchenAid, gift her a new attachment that will make the mixer even more versatile. We like the pasta roller and cutter, which will turn your home into an Italian restaurant in no time.
Moleskine Classic Notebook

For the Journaler: Writing in a Moleskine just feels good — whether you’re recording your innermost thoughts, the first chapter of your novel, or your grocery list. For best results, pick a color that matches her favorite tote bag.
Mini Heart Pavé Diamond Necklace

For the Traditionalist: Hey, you knew you were going to see jewelry on this list at some point. This mini heart necklace from Mejuri is a stunner — dainty, classic, and subtle enough to wear with pretty much anything.
Yeti Rambler Wine Chiller

For the Al Fresco Wine Drinker: This Yeti wine chiller will keep any bottle cold without creating pesky condensation. She’ll be able to use it indoors, outdoors, and anywhere in between (by that we mean on the porch).
Takeya Cold Brew Coffee Maker

For the Coffee Drinker: If she favors iced coffee year-round, help her make it at home with a cold brew maker. It comes in two sizes, but we’re assuming she’ll want the two-quart version. (That’s the larger one.)
Bodum Latteo Manual Milk Frother

For the Latte Drinker: If she’s more of an espresso aficionado, opt for this manual milk frother from Bodum. In just a few plunges, she’ll have the perfect foam to top off her latte or cappuccino.
Mashable Light Speed
Shark FlexStyle

For the Hair Care Expert: The Shark FlexStyle is the ideal alternative to the Dyson AirWrap — Mashable reporter Bethany Allard even called it a “better value” when comparing the two. Make sure to choose the attachments that suit her hair type.
Stanley Quencher FlowState Tumbler, 40 oz

For the Hydration Queen: You probably know all about the ubiquitous Stanley cup already, but they really are great: They hold tons of water, have a delightful straw, and are pretty easy to clean. Plus, they fit into most cupholders.
Brooklinen Super-Plush Robe

For Some Self-Care: Help her get cozy after a long day with an extra-comfy robe from Brooklinen. It’s great for lounging anytime, but especially after a bath or shower as it’s made of very fluffy Turkish cotton.
Benevolence LA Plush Velvet Jewelry Organizer

For the Traveler: This pretty velvet jewelry organizer will help her keep her necklaces and earrings untangled and accounted for during trips. Bonus: It was featured as one of Oprah’s Favorite Things in 2022.
Kindle Paperwhite

For the Bookworm: For the avid reader, there really is no better gift than a lightweight, water-resistant Kindle Paperwhite. We suggest adding a subscription to Kindle Unlimited, which will give her access to over 2 million books.
Oster Electric Wine Bottle Opener

For the Amateur Sommelier: And for the avid wine drinker, there really is no better gift than never having to mess around with a corkscrew again. We suggest pairing this gift with a bottle of wine to test it out on.
Hatch Restore 2 Alarm Clock

For the Sleep Tracker: Help her get a great night’s rest — and also, crucially, a pleasant wake-up — with the Hatch Restore 2 alarm clock, which features a database of nature sounds, white noise, an “alarm” that works with the circadian rhythm, and more.
Owala FreeSip, 24 ounces

For the Anti-Stanley: Maybe she doesn’t want an enormous, heavy Stanley cup with an enormous straw, and you know what? That’s OK. Instead, consider the Owala FreeSip, which is much smaller and supports both sipping and chugging proclivities.
Otherland Rattan Sandalwood Candle

For Some Ambiance: We’re firm believers that candles make great gifts — especially pricey ones that she wouldn’t necessarily buy for herself. This one from Otherland, which smells of sandalwood, amber, and musk, is a lovely option.
Pickleball Set

For the Sportswoman: If she’s been meaning to take up pickleball but hasn’t taken the plunge, help her out with everything she needs to get started: a set of paddles, balls, extra grip tape, and even a handy carrying case.
Baggu Medium Nylon Crescent Bag
Credit: Baggu / Amazon
For the Fashion-Forward: This staggeringly versatile (and machine-washable!) crescent bag from Baggu comes in a wide range of colors, from a cheerful candy-apple red to a neutral, goes-with-everything cocoa brown.
Lego Icons Bouquet of Roses

For the Romantic: A bouquet of real roses will wilt in a week, but you know what won’t? A bouquet of Lego roses. Yes, she will have to build these herself, but maybe you can make that a couples’ project. Did someone say date night?
Hallmark Refillable Address Book

For the Post Office Regular: If she loves to stay in touch via snail mail, gift her a dedicated address book for all her loved ones’ contact info. We’d guess that avid letter-writers will appreciate keeping things analog.
