A curtain of love 

To go a step further and a way to make his waking up with breakfast in bed a little more special. While he is still sleeping and you are waiting for his breakfast to finish cooking in the kitchen. You can hang enough balloons or ribbons of his favorite colors or red from the ceiling all around the bed. Place a Happy Birthday banner in the middle of the curtain at the foot area so that it is the first thing he sees when he wakes up.

Ask him if there is anything specific that he would like to do

Once he has enjoyed his delicious breakfast and has gotten over the surprise from the Happy Birthday curtain. Ask him what he would like to do for the day, which doesn’t mean that you can’t plan something for him to do yourself. You can even give him a list of possible options to choose with some that are low-key and other a little more extravagant.

Have an adventure planned for the day

• Take him on a hot air balloon ride where he can view the beautiful fields and meadows while enjoying his favorite wine.
• Go bungee jumping together, this is an experience that neither of you will ever forget, especially if you jump while being tied together.

Surprise him with tickets to an event

If a wild adventure is not something that he is interested in. Surely this is something that you should find out or know beforehand.

⓶ Things to say to him

One of the many secrets for making your man feel loved especially on his birthday is with the things you say to him. Every guy loves to hear how great you think they are and the reasons why you love them. Some things that you could say are:

There are so many different ways to wrap a gift to make it fun, romantic or special like using homemade boxes that are either tiny or are oversized. You could use different types of glass jars with the gift in the middle but from the outside, it is disguised as something else.
