While flowers and chocolates are nice, in Hollywood, Valentine’s Day is usually done a little different. Although there are many ways to show your love, check out how some of our favorite celebrity couples are doing it! Celebrity love is definitely in the air this season, and there’s no better way to show it than with extravagant gestures. If you need some romance inspiration, check out the five famous couples below:
Celebrity Couples Who Celebrate the Day of Love in Style
1. Kim Kardashian and Kanye West: Kimye has gone overboard with V-Day celebrations in the past few years. Last Valentine’s Day, Kim received 1,000 roses from Kanye, which she showed off on her Instagram account. West also has shown his love to Kardashian with some serious bling. In 2013, the rapper gave his sweetheart a $73,000 bracelet from Cartier’s Panthere Collection. The stunning bracelet featured a diamond-encrusted panther motif with emerald eyes and an onyx nose, completed with a black cuff and a white-gold trim.
Although Kardashian loves her bling, she admits that Valentine’s Day presents don’t have to include a huge price tag to be special. In a interview with Gotham, Kardashian said, “Valentine’s Day is all about showing the people around you how much you love them, so the gifts that come from the heart are always the most special. One year, Mason [Kourtney Kardashian’s son] gave me the most adorable Valentine’s Day card that he made himself, and it is still one of the best gifts I’ve ever received.”

2. Lauren Conrad and William Tell: Conrad and Tell, one of our favorite celebrity love stories, will be celebrating their third anniversary this Valentine’s Day. The celebrity couple were introduced to each other by mutual friends on the day of love in 2012 and have been lovey-dovey ever since. Last year, Conrad showed her love to her then-fiancé on Instagram by posting an adorable engagement photo with the caption, “Happy Anniversary to my favorite Valentine. I love you dearly xo.” This is their first Valentine’s Day as a married couple, so we’re excited to see what this day of love and joy brings them!
3. Kate Middleton and Prince William: Valentine’s Day isn’t always about spending the time with your lover. In 2013, Kate Middleton and Prince William celebrated the day of love in style by doing something they love: helping others! The Duchess Of Cambridge visited Northolt High School, a London high school, and officially opened the school’s ICAP Art Room after receiving a lovely floral arrangement. Middleton has been a patron of the art room since 2012. William spent Valentine’s Day morning in Datchet, Berkshire with Prince Harry, delivering sandbags to communities affected by flooding
This wasn’t the first Valentine’s Day the royal couple has spent apart! In 2012, William was on a tour of duty in the Falklands during the 14th of February, but he still managed to send her a card and flowers despite his being 7,000 miles away.

4. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie: This power couple has shown their celebrity love on Valentine’s Day by celebrating with some laughter. In 2013, Pitt gave his lover vegan, gluten-free, sugar-free mints for Valentine’s Day, a loving joke since he’s always teasing Jolie that she has bad breath. Although he could easily buy her something fancy (which we assume he did along with the gag gift), this gift shows the couple’s unique, playful side, which is always in style!
The couple doesn’t always make a joke about the holiday, though! In 2010, Jolie gifted Pitt with a 200-year-old olive tree worth $30,000. The tree was planted at their French home, the Chateau Miraval, where it joined an olive grove, vineyard, and more.
5. Jay-Z and Beyonce: Is anyone surprised that this “Drunk in Love” couple would celebrate the Day of Love in anything less than amazing style? Last Valentine’s Day, Jay-Z bought his wife a $2,300 Tacori bracelet. The bracelet’s intertwined gold and silver design is said to represent their union, and it can only be unlocked by a private key. Jay-Z reportedly gave Bey her gift a few days earlier than the 14th because she was so eager to receive it.
Last year wasn’t the only year the rapper surprised his wife with an extravagant gift. In 2009, Jay-Z bought Beyoncé a platinum cell phone worth $24,000 for Valentine’s Day. We can’t wait to see how this superstar celebrity couple celebrates V-Day this year.
