I majorly struggled titling this post…Just Engaged Gifts…Engagement Gift Guide…Gifts for New Fianc\u00e9s…Gifts for the Newly Engaged. You get the point, hopefully ?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

With engagement season HEAVILY upon us (HI to my newly engaged sister and future brother-in-law<\/a><\/strong><\/span>!) I thought it was time to chat gifts. I think it’s always super fun to bring a little something to the future bride, at the least! Most of y’all agreed on my Instagram story poll that it’s always very meaningful to gift an item with the bride’s future name or monogram on it like this little jewelry box<\/a><\/strong><\/span>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If you want to take a little walk down memory lane, here’s the link the blog post I wrote about the day Rudd proposed to me<\/a><\/strong><\/span>! If you’re newly engaged yourself, I would also recommend reading the posts I wrote about how I asked my bridesmaids<\/a><\/strong><\/span> and the series I did on what we registered for<\/a><\/strong><\/span>.<\/p>\n

MY TOP 5 ENGAGEMENT GIFT IDEAS:<\/span><\/h5>\n

1. “Bride” Tote Bag<\/a><\/strong><\/span> – I had a bag very similar to this during my engagement season and took it with me everywhere! Vendor meetings, wedding dress shopping, bachelorette weekend – you name it, and this bag was with me to carry all of my wedding planning supplies!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2. “Mrs. ___” Beach Towel<\/a><\/strong><\/span> – I love this gift idea because it’s something she can use for years to come, not to mention on her honeymoon! The classic black and white colors also make for a nice touch.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3. Engagement Ring Ornament<\/a><\/strong><\/span> – I have an ornament very similar to this that my mom gave me when we got engaged, and it was truly so special to hang on our tree this year!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

4. Pair of Champagne Flutes<\/a><\/strong><\/span> – These gold-rimmed flutes are just so pretty, and the new fianc\u00e9’s will love toasting out of them and using them in their new life together – they would always be a reminder of such a special day!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

5. Ring Cleaning Pen<\/a><\/strong><\/span> – You can pair this pen with just about any gift – just tie it on top of the present! I use my pen like this for when I travel. It makes your rings SO sparkly!<\/p>\n
