Getting engaged is a happy time. This is before any stress of planning a wedding kicks in and when the happy couple can concentrate on just being together. It’s also a great time to give a gift to the couple to congratulate them on getting engaged. But, what to get? Closer to the wedding, the couple should have a wedding registry, so it is easier to pick gifts. But, at the time of engagement, they won’t have created one yet. Not to fear, below are some great options, sure to be loved by any newly engaged couple.
Figurines
 |
Willow Tree Together Figurine – I personally love this line of figurines and gave one as a gift to my bridesmaids when I got married. This line has many wonderful figurines, including this one, showing a new couple. |
 |
Engagement Figurine – This one is also beautiful, showing the moment of engagement. |
Picture Frames
 |
Bling, Bling I Got The Ring – This frame is cute and whimsical. Whether with a picture of just the ring, or a picture of the happy couple, this is a great gift. |
 |
Engagement Clip Frame – This one has a wonderful saying: “A Beautiful Way to Begin Forever” that is more serious than the frame above. Given with a good picture of the couple, this will make a great engagement gift. |
For The Groom
 |
The Engaged Groom: You’re Getting Married. Read this Book. This book includes tips on wedding planning, dealing with difficult guests and bachelor parties. The reviewers say this rivals the wedding planning books for women and is very funny. |
 |
Groomology: What Every (Smart) Groom Needs to Know Before the Wedding. This is another book for the guys on planning a wedding, which focuses on how he can help his bride be the groom she needs him to be. In other words, this book is good at helping guys figure out what their role is in planning their wedding and how to do that role well. Reviewers say this is funny and helpful, and suggest it’s as good for the girls as for the guys. |
For The Couple
 |
Book of Us: A Journal of Your Love Story in 150 Questions. This is a cute book with lots of space for the couple to reminisce about their relationship. Reviewers point out that this is not a book for a couple who is simply dating, which makes it an excellent gift for a newly engaged couple. |
 |
All About Us: Cute book with lots of questions for the couple to ask each other. Some reviewers didn’t like some of the questions in this book. However, whether every couple feels the same about the questions is individual. Others rave about the book and highly recommend it. I have the original “All About Me” and liked it very much. |
