I'm so excited for her and want to send her something unique and fun. Her parents threw e-parties for both her sister and her brother when they were engaged so I think they will for her too. At that time I'll give her a 'real' gift.
For now, I want to do something fun for her. I was thinking of getting her a subscription to either In Style Weddings or Elegant Bride. She isn't very organized and won't be 'all in' to the planning so a planner wouldn't interest her. Do you have any other suggestions? What unique e-gifts did you all get??
Thanks!!

I've been thinking about this all day and I think I will send her a magazine and buy her the subscription, an engaged in 2004 ornament I found online, a frame from Pottery Barn that says 'I Do', and a pair of underwear that says 'I Do'...is that good?? Maybe I should keep some of this for the actual e-party.

All of those sound great!! I wish I got them when I got engaged. The subscription is my favorite, but they all look good to me.

I was in a Sam Flax store the other day and they had these Memory Books - they had for your Our Engagement Memories Book.
And actually my mom got me one at my shower and it was an Our Wedding Anniversary Memories Book.

It wasn't an engagement gift, but my roommate just got me a year's subscription to Martha Stewart Weddings for Xmas. I think it was a great gift.

The best gift I got that I use everyday is my crystal ring holder.

Re: Engagement Gifts
junebride! I got an engagement ornament for another friend a month ago (I'll post a pic below) from www.ornamentshop.com but when I just went online it looks like they don't have that one anymore, but they do have others.
