Like any major milestone, an engagement is the start of a whole new adventure, and it deserves to be celebrated. Whether it's your best friend, sister, coworker, neighbor, or some other acquaintance who's getting ready to say "I do," it's always nice to acknowledge their big news with a special gift... especially if you're looking for an invite to the wedding! And while wedding registries can be helpful for inspiration, the best engagement gifts tend to be a bit more exciting (and a lot more personal) than kitchen appliances.
Even if you don't know the groom- or bride-to-be well, there are plenty of unique engagement gift ideas for couples that reflect their journey together — and no, you don't have to spend a lot of cash to impress 'em. Celebrate your favorite couple with matching wine glasses or socks, or commemorate the big day to come with customized engagement ornaments, glasses, serving boards, or other household items. Whatever you decide, we've got plenty of ideas to get you started.
You're sure to make the newly-engaged pair in your life cry happy tears if you show up to their engagement party or bridal shower with one of these thoughtful (yet inexpensive) engagement presents.
