Your friends just became engaged. You are
happy to see them united and want to get just
the right thing to show your happiness. You
want to acknowledge this wonderful time in
their lives; but you have not a clue as to
what to get. Well, we have some ideas to help
you. Some of these gifts for the new groom or
the new bride, and some can be given to them
as a couple.
-
Tee shirts imprinted "Just got
Engaged". You can get one just for him or
for her or get a matched set for them to
wear together.
-
The International Star Registry will
pick a star in the heavens and you get to
pick a name for it. Add their names
together as the new star. The Registry will
send them a certificate of a new star in
their honor.
-
Find a four leaf clover that is framed.
Add a note that you know they do not need a
four leaf clover since they have found each
other. They have all the luck they will
ever need.
-
Get a set of key chains with the
attachment is a heart split in half. One
half of the heart goes on one chain and the
other heart on the other chain. The two
halves will make up one heart when together.
-
Find a chrome or gold doorknocker and
have their first and soon to be common last
name inscribed on the plate.
-
Find a "countdown clock". The clock can
be set for the number of days until their
wedding date. Each day the clock will
eliminate one day until they will be
married.
-
All couples have arguments. Getting
over the argument is the difficult thing.
Try this as a gift. According to an
ancient Irish tradition, engaged couples
were presented with a crystal bell.
Whenever an argument brewed, all it took
was for one partner to ring the bell and the
dispute would be instantly settled.
-
Find Crystal flutes and have their names
etched into the glass with the date of their
engagement. Add a bottle of their favorite
champagne.
-
Things get confusing as the bride plans
her wedding. To make sure that she has good
memories, give her a Bride's memory book for
her to record all the wonderful things that
happened during this time.
-
As the Bride starts to plan her wedding,
shopping will be a major concern. Shopping
for the gown, the bridesmaid gowns, what
dinnerware to select, the silver. Send her
a magazine subscription to one of the
bride's magazine so she can do some of this
work in the comfort of her own home and will
her finance.
-
Most unions have a little upheaval from
time to time. Give your engagement couple a
"relationship book" by a reputable author.
-
You can also check on the Internet and
find a site that will give your couple an
acre on the moon. They will receive a
certificate of their moon acreage.
-
Another key ring idea has a lock on one
key chain and a key on the other. They will
have to decide who has the lock and who has
the key.
