5 ideas for an unconventional Christmas gift for your fiancé

It’s already mid-December, and Christmas is fast approaching! The sound of joyful holiday songs fills the air, cities sparkle with millions of lights and colorful decorations, and the streets are covered in a blanket of white snow. Yes, these will be exceptional holidays, as they are the last with your maiden name 🙂 But seriously, the coming year will bring many decisions that will change your life. A new chapter is about to begin. Christmas and the tradition of giving gifts to your loved ones are the perfect opportunity to reflect on your engagement or plan your future together.

How to do it? Below you will find some creative gift ideas for your future husband.

1. **Atlas of Love** Buy an atlas of Poland, Europe, or the world and mark your most significant moments. The first meeting, the first date, or the first kiss. It could be fun to add a description of the place or the situation. Maybe there’s a funny anecdote or an inside joke that only the two of you will understand? You surely have many shared photos from trips, events, or celebrations; adding them to the atlas will make it more appealing and remind you of positive memories. You can decorate the atlas with themed stickers:

2. **Engagement Calendar** No matter how long you’ve been together, whether it’s 10 years or 1 year, every month brings some memories. What do you think about gathering those memories into a wall calendar for 2019? Just dig through your photos, and the ideas will come naturally. The winter season is about building snowmen and skiing trips, spring is about barbecues and holidays, summer vacations, and fall romantic walks. I’m sure you remember the month (day and time! :)) of the proposal and will definitely mention it in the calendar.

3. **Sexy Photoshoot** If you’re one of those brave girls, you could consider a burlesque, romantic photoshoot. An album filled with sexy pictures of the bride-to-be will certainly blow your fiancé away. Plus, it will be a keepsake for years to come, one that you both will enjoy looking back on.

4. **Couples Photoshoot** If burlesque-style photoshoots are too intimidating, consider organizing a couples photoshoot with your fiancé. You can book it with the photographer who will be documenting your wedding or hire a new one. Simply search for “engagement photoshoot” online, and you’ll find plenty of photographers specializing in this type of photography (https://fotoursus.pl/sesje-zdjeciowe/sesje-narzeczenskie-sesje-rocznicowe/) The photos can serve not only as a unique keepsake but also in creating stationery, wedding decorations, or thank you cards for your parents (/en/poradniki/a-few-ideas-for-thanking-your-parents/)
5. **Scratch-off Map** If you both love traveling and it brings you a lot of joy, a scratch-off map will be the perfect gift. It’s a great way to reflect on how many places you’ve visited together and to plan future trips, especially the honeymoon!
