    Warning: Sap Alert! If you’re prone to eye-rolling at loved-up newlyweds, you might need to brace yourself…

    So, my fiancé is finally landing after an eternity of paperwork, video calls across time zones (hello, sleep deprivation!), and enough screenshot memories to fill a cloud. Now the big day is almost here, and I’m determined to make that “Welcome to the US of A” airport hug even more special.

    But what kind of gift screams both “I love you” and “you survived Homeland Security lines for me”? I want something equal parts sweet, practical, and, ideally, easily packable (because I know what coming through customs is like with a suitcase full of random stuff).

    Here are my top picks to welcome international lovebirds:

    • Homesick Scented Candle (New York City, California, etc.)

      For when your sweetie feels a bit internationally displaced, this candle brings a whiff of “home”—whether that means Big Apple bagels or California ocean breezes. Bonus: Also covers up “plane smell.” Available on Amazon!

    • Knock Knock Why I Miss You Fill in the Love Book

      This quirky little book lets you fill in the reasons you missed them—heartfelt, cheeky, or just plain weird. (“I missed you because who else would put up with my cooking?”). Pack it with a goofy doodle inside—it’s a guaranteed icebreaker after that initial jetlag.

    • Burt’s Bees Essential Everyday Beauty Gift Set

      Post-flight TLC, anyone? This sweet set of balms, lotions, and hand creams helps soothe tired skin after long-haul flights and endless airport sanitizer. It also gently says, “Let’s survive our first Target run together in style.”

    Nothing too bulky, nothing too cheesy (ok, maybe a little cheesy). Would love to hear what others did for this occasion—because every love story deserves that perfect welcome gift.
