Good Apology Gifts for a Girlfriend & Wife

Good apology gifts for a girlfriend or wife are gifts that reinforce your feelings of remorse and regret over what happened. Even though a gift isn't necessary, it DOES send a strong message.

It shows her that you're taking the situation seriously, that you really care, and that you're doing your utmost to right any wrongs you committed.

Why does an apology gift show how much you care about her & are doing everything in your power to fix the situation? Simply because they aren't expected or necessary.

By making the extra effort in choosing a gift to accompany your apology, it tells her that you went out of your way to make things right again. The one caveat, make sure that the gift is given along with your apology and is not the apology itself.

Now let's take a look at some of the best apology gifts for her, curated by our team of buyers...

The Classic Apology Gift for a Girlfriend & Wife

For those of you looking for a "classic" apology gift, jewelry is the way to go.

For this type of extra-special gift, we like Reeds.com. They're a great company, completely trustworthy and have been in business since 1946.

They offer everything from discount jewelry to diamond rings, fine jewelry, designer pieces like Pandora and more. They even offer a heart-shaped cut diamond and other heart pieces which are perfect for saying sorry to that special girl in your life.

Keep in mind that jewelry is most appropriate for intimate relationships. In a survey conducted by a jewelry company in the US, they found that a substantial amount of their customers bought jewelry as a way of saying sorry.

You can name a star through the Online Star Registration Service (yes, a real star... and name it after the two of you, or just her, and declare your love to the world).

Give her the star along with your apology and tell her how brightly she shines in your heart.

The Art of the Apology Gift: Her Own DNA In Artwork

This one has a WOW factor...Yes, it's artwork based on her own DNA—her lips, fingerprints, or DNA as modern art. There are even 'couples options' so you can get a His & Hers set. What a great gift for a perfect apology.

Did you neglect her, take her for granted, or have a fight? What better than the lips portrait for kissing and making up?

Or, gift a fingerprint portrait to let her know how much you long to touch her.

DNA 11 offers 3 different categories of portraits—Kiss, Fingerprint and DNA that'll totally WOW her, be cherished for years to come, and are a great reminder of the love you share.

One thing to keep in mind is that you'll be gifting the DNA Kit to create the portrait, as opposed to the final product because you actually need her DNA. Those that have tried this as an apology gift let us know that the kit was great and became a gift in itself. Their spouses were so touched and delighted by the gesture that the excitement lasted right through until the delivery of the portrait.

Best of all the entire thing can be customized, choose any color (maybe match your home decor), have it framed or unframed, do it all online and have it shipped just about anywhere in the world.

Does Adding A Gift to An Apology Make A Difference?

When giving an apology gift to her, you're actually speaking to her. What you buy, make or create, makes a statement.

It can tell her that you love her, that your relationship is valuable and that you understand that you hurt or offended her. So when choosing a gift, think about what you want to say.

For example, the gift of jewelry communicates intimacy and that you consider your relationship to be very serious and one that you cherish—so does a handmade heart made by your own hands, beautifully wrapped up in a box.

The cost of a gift doesn't determine what's communicated, only the thought behind it does and that's can have a huge impact on how your apology is received.
