Let's paint a picture. It's a week before Christmas. Work is finishing up for the year, there are winter school concerts to attend. Holiday gatherings seem to happen every other night. You are running out of time. Sound familiar? Let's keep this going. You need to fill her stocking and find gifts that are both thoughtful and within the budget that you've set, whatever that may be. And even though you spend more time around her than anyone else, when the pressure is on, how many of us can remember the products that she uses, the brands she loves, or even her shoe size? If this is you, you're not alone.
Tracking and remembering all these details feels like another full time job. For many, gift giving during the Christmas holiday is one of the more stressful times of the year. This is unfortunate, and we think avoidable with the right tool in your pocket (hint: that's Stoke, but more on that later). You find yourself running around the bathroom and the closet, snapping photos of bottles and lotions and potions and all the stuff. But make sure they aren't photos that show up on your shared photo stream! You keep a note with a jumbled mess of information. Some of it is useful, some of it is old and outdated - her tastes change too! Most of us do our best. These are high stakes. Everyone's gathered around the tree, watching her unwrap the big box, the little box in the tree, the stocking stuffers.
The holiday season is the perfect time to show your wife just how much she means to you. Thoughtful gift-giving plays a crucial role in maintaining the romance and deepening your connection. In the hustle and bustle of daily life, it can be easy to overlook the small gestures that keep the spark alive. This is where Stoke comes in - it puts you ahead of the game so you can be sure you've uncovered the best gift ideas and have put the perfect present under the Christmas tree. Stoke helps take the stress away, making sure you find the best Christmas gift ideas for the love of your life. With Stoke, you can enjoy those holiday gatherings, the school concert and all the little moments as the big day nears.

Stoke is your personal concierge that is always ready, willing and able to remind you what your wife loves, wants, needs and even the things she dislikes or hates. Once you download Stoke, you now have a digital place to put all those chaotic notes, those one off pictures of perfume bottles and everything in between. But Stoke goes even deeper. You can share her wants, her desires, her pet peeves. Track her style, her guilty pleasures and her bucket list experiences that you can help make come true.
Once you've done that, it's time to take Stoke shopping with you - without leaving the app. Stoke has a gift buying experience built into the app, but this isn't just another list of gifts (like we share below). Stoke uses all that insight and intelligence you have compiled about your wife and turns a good idea for a Christmas gift into a list of the best gifts you could ever buy your wife. Stoke isn't going to recommend just good gift ideas. Stoke is going to give you the best Christmas gifts she's ever received from you. Gone are the days when you watch her open up a new vacuum or another water bottle. Stoke will find your wife the perfect gift for this special occasion. If you really want to make the love of your life remember Christmas morning, you need to download Stoke now.
Stoke: The Personal Shopper
Stoke has been designed to act as a personal shopper for your wife. Does she get stressed at the end of a long day? If Stoke knows this, maybe it will recommend some essential oils she can use along with some cozy loungewear to remove the stress from her day. That's just one personalized example of how Stoke can match your wife up with the perfect gifts. Shopping with Stoke works across all categories, providing great ideas for gifts from practical gifts for your home and garden to romantic gifts that spice up your relationship. Stoke can make recommendations but you can also simply chat with Stoke and start your personal shopping experience. Stoke knows her sizes, her age, her preferences and everything else required to find that great gift for Christmas.
Stoke isn't just build for Christmas, either. Looking to find a great wedding anniversary gift? How about Mother's Day? Don't forget that perfect birthday gift you need to find. Stoke is here for you, 24/7/365. All the dates that you need help including the random days where you just want to make her smile and let her know how much you love her. And one of the best parts about Stoke? You don't need to fight that Christmas mall chaos as the holiday nears. Stoke integrates with your trusted e-commerce brands so the perfect gift can come to you.
We Get It. People Love Lists.
Here at Stoke, we personally don't love these laundry lists of gift ideas because we believe that everyone is different and there is a perfect gift out there for everyone. Gifts can be as unique as the people we buy them for. Stoke cuts down on the noise, and saves you time, by not providing a laundry list of gift ideas that still require you to weed out gifts that aren't a fit. Perhaps you already know that your wife hates the idea of a gift card or gift certificate - she wants more effort. Stoke will know this and you can train it to remember these little details.
Having said that, popular is still popular. And here at Stoke, we want to help you even if you don't use our app.
To help you get started, we’ve compiled a list of perfect Christmas gift ideas that will show your wife just how much you care. These gifts are designed to be meaningful and personalized. You may see a lot of these on social media and they could be a great gift option for your wife.

When you know her favorite thing, Stoke knows her favorite things. Once you tell Stoke she loves Yves Saint Laurent, Stoke will help find that meaningful gift with YSL in mind. Without Stoke, good luck finding that unique gift for your wife. With Stoke? We love your chances. Happy holidays!
