When it comes to showing love, some celebrities go above and beyond, turning special moments into unforgettable experiences. These thoughtful gestures are more than just gifts—they’re ways of saying, "I see you," and "I appreciate you," in the most personal and creative ways possible.

Nick Jonas, for example, made sure his wife, Priyanka Chopra, had a memorable anniversary in 2019, even though they couldn’t be together for the one-year mark of their first date. The singer arranged for Chopra to get tickets and backstage access to see Mariah Carey, her favorite pop star. "The best husband ever … A #lambily member's dream came true," the Love Again actress wrote on Instagram. "Even though he was busy and we were apart, he made sure I celebrated our one-year anniversary with my fave! … You will always be my baby @nickjonas Happy one year, love!"

Meanwhile, Chrissy Teigen was touched by an incredible anniversary gift from her EGOT-winning husband, John Legend. Teigen, who has "been in love with watching ballet" since childhood, received a special gift involving her love for the art form. "I was given shoes from a performance John planned for me a few years ago," she shared on Instagram.

"Tonight, I tried them on. IT IS HARD. Shout out to the ballerinas I love, and have loved, so so much." Legend had even arranged for ballet dancers to come from New York to perform for them, making it an unforgettable moment. "It took me a while to find somebody who would drive up from New York," he told Elle in 2016. "Chrissy loves the ballet. That's her secret dream—to be a ballet dancer."

In 2017, NFL quarterback Russell Wilson also pulled off an extraordinary surprise for his wife, Ciara, by renting out the entire Seattle Art Museum for a private date night. "When Ya Man Shuts Down The Museum For #DateNight ... Still Got My Head Spinnin," Ciara posted on Instagram, sharing her excitement about the romantic gesture.

And in 2019, Ryan Reynolds shared a heartfelt story about the "greatest present" his wife Blake Lively had ever given him—a painting by artist Danny Galieote. The piece depicted Reynolds' childhood home, which no longer exists but holds a special place in his heart. "My first job was delivering newspapers for the Vancouver Sun," he wrote in the caption.

"The house in the painting is my childhood home. My brothers and I spent years trying to kill each other on that lawn." He added that the painting had "Easter eggs" inside, including a tribute to his idol, John Candy. "If there's ever a fire, I'm grabbing this first," Reynolds joked. "I'll come back for Blake."
