match made in heaven

Ideal romantic coupling

A match made in heaven is a pairing that seems perfect or ideally suited—two people, things, or ideas that complement each other so well they might have been designed for one another: Those two are a match made in heaven.

The phrase implies divine arrangement, though it's typically used lightly: Chocolate and peanut butter—a match made in heaven.
