What do you buy two men for....
an engagement gift? They don't live together yet. They are looking for a house, but I just don't know what the heck to get them. I don't want to give money because it's my best friend and it feels weird giving him money or a gift card. So I want to give them an actual gift. I just don't know what.

All the nice frames I've seen are totally girly, and they would never go for it. Toasting flutes, hmm, I didn't think of that. Good idea. I'll check those out.

They're really into clothes and sushi. My other friend already bought them a really nice sushi set. They're not the crystal type. The wine and wine glasses sounds good.
I don't really know his FH because they live in California, and I jsut met his FH this week for the first time. I know what my friend likes, but I just wish I knew more about his FH.

Do they drink liquor? You could get them a crystal decanter & a nice bottle of something. We got that as wedding present from 2 brothers.
Decanter
Whiskey set

Re: What do you buy two men for....
hmm, well you know your friend really well, just get ideas based on his tastes to start..
maybe email him a bunch of questions for fun pertaining to things he likes styles/colors/decorating/hobbies, etc.
might as well get them something they will have for a long time, that is their taste and they can have as a special token from you..
if that makes sense. 
some ideas off the top of my head:
A nice clock? (bombay had gorgeous ones, but they all closed down, right?)
a small furniture piece, like a wine rack.
something personalized

vase
flatware
pots/pans

That's a GREAT IDEA! You girls are great.
I keep trying to think bridal showery type things, but the problem is that they're not registered anywhere and I haven't seen either of their homes (my friend just moved there last year). I just don't want to get something that they won't use.
I like that decanter and hte sake set. Great ideas, girls!
