Gift for newly engaged couple
My SIL just got engaged last week. DH and I are meeting them out to celebrate. I sent her some flowers and a "congrats" balloon, but wanted to do a little something more when we see them. She got a binder already. Nothing too crazy or creative since I WFT, have a 2 year old and we're meeting this Fri night. LOL! Don't have too much time to do a lot of research.
Just wondering where to go for something cute and somewhat creative. Where do they sell the "wedding countdown" clock? maybe a cute pic frame?
know any place? kohls? Target? etc Figured I can run on my lunch break Thanks!

Re: Gift for newly engaged couple
It's really for the woman, but when I just want to give something small, I like to give a pretty little ring holder for the new engagement ring.
Something like this
More at Macy's

Bride/Groom Christmas ornament?
Hallmark probably has some cute stuff.
Kohl's has a frame w/ 2 rings "welded" together.
Maybe get a silly book - like the grooms guide to wedding type.

Re: Gift for newly engaged couple
My SIL bought me a ton of the most recent wedding mags. I really appreciated that. You could also get her a subscription to 1 or 2 of them.
My MOH gave us a engaged frame she saw in hallmark. I still have the photo we took the night we were engaged in it.

Personalized wine glasses is a nice idea. I used to give those as gifts to newly engaged couples!

Thanks all for your ideas!
