If you're in love, one of the sweetest times of the year is Valentine's Day. It's an opportunity to show your other half how much you love and appreciate them. But there's a lot more you can do then just give them a bouquet of flowers and a box of chocolates, particularly if you're famous.

Celebrities are known for their over-the-top gift ideas, and Valentine's Day is no exception. And while money can't buy happiness, it can buy a lot of cool things. Check out some of the things celebs have done over the years to demonstrate their love and affection...

One way to celebrate your love for your significant other on Valentine's Day is by getting engaged. And Orlando Bloom proposed in a big way by giving Katy Perry a giant engagement ring. They posted a picture of themselves on Instagram surrounded by heart-shaped balloons and the flower-shaped ring.

Perry captioned the pic "full bloom" and proudly showed off the flower-shaped ruby and diamond ring. It's believed the jewelry cost the actor at least $250,000. Apparently there's no limit to how much you should spend when expressing your love.

Unfortunately, the couple announced their separation less than a year after tying the knot. They had been together on and off after meeting on the set of the 2009 film The Last Song.

The couple wed three months later in Las Vegas and then held a larger wedding ceremony in June of 2019. Turner was recently featured in a Jonas Brothers video for "What a Man Gotta Do" alongside the wives of the other band members.

While Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber are no longer together, at the beginning of their relationship things were pretty hot between them.

He allegedly paid over $2,000 for all the flowers. The couple dated on and off from 2010 until 2018. He later went on to marry Hailey Baldwin.

Gisele Bündchen and Tom Brady had an extra special Valentine's Day in 2018 because they were celebrating more than just their love for one another. The pair was also celebrating the Patriots' win at the Super Bowl just a couple weeks earlier. What better way to kick back and relax than at the beach?

Gisele posted a picture of herself kissing her husband in Costa Rica. She wrote in the caption, "Sending so much love to all!" There probably won't be a repeat this year because the Patriots were locked out of the Super Bowl.

If you really want to show your love on Valentine's Day, one of the best ways to do it is to take him or her to one of the most romantic place on earth: Paris! In 2016, then husband and wife Justin Theroux and Jennifer Aniston spent the holiday in France. Justin posted a picture of Jennifer looking out a window from the Eiffel Tower.

The couple got together in 2011 and tied the knot in 2015. Unfortunately, the union didn't last, and they separated two years later. But I'm sure their Valentine's Day in Paris was one they'll never forget.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were together from 2005 until 2016. The pair was one of the hottest celebrity couples around, and fans were devastated when the actress filed for divorce 11 years after they started dating. But when things were good between them, they were very good.

In 2010, Angelina honored Brad on Valentine's Day by giving him a 200-year-old olive tree worth around $20,000. The olive tree symbolizes peace, stability, and longevity and was for their estate in the South of France. Too bad the traits of the tree didn't work for their relationship.

Nothing says love like a vintage carousel horse, right? When former Friends star Courteney Cox was married to actor David Arquette, she gave him a special gift on Valentine's Day in 2010. She spent $45,000 on an antique carousel horse. She certainly gets bonus points for creativity.

Unfortunately, the gift wasn't enough to keep the pair together, and they separated six months later after 11 years of marriage. Their divorce was finalized in 2013. They have both since moved on to other relationships.

When you're one of the world's most romantic singers it makes sense that you'd want to honor the love of your life by singing to her. But what's even better is if you sing with her. That's exactly what singer/songwriter did with his supermodel wife Chrissy Teigen.

In 2018, the model posted a video on Instagram of the pair of them singing "L.O.V.E." together. It was absolutely adorable and the definition of couple goals. Now if only every husband and boyfriend had a good voice like Legend...

It's one thing to get married on Valentine's Day and it's an entirely another thing to do so in the city of love, Paris. That's exactly what Salma Hayek and François-Henri Pinault did in 2009. They followed this up with a second wedding ceremony in Venice, Italy. Ooh la la!

The couple tied the knot two years after welcoming their daughter, Valentina (who interestingly has a Valentine's Day-inspired name). It probably was a bit helpful that Francois is a French billionaire.

In 2017 she posted a picture of herself with her children and a large bunch of Valentine's Day balloons. Her kids were also wearing adorable heart-shaped headbands. She used heart emojis for the caption, showing that love shows no boundaries.
