definitey money or a gift card to a store that they will register at or at least that they can use (like Bed Bath Beyond, target...etc) I would definitely bring something though.

I would say money or a small gift like a nice frame/photo album.

give money engament parties i give about 200 per couple.....is it out in a hall? are they having a dj? engagment parties cost not that far off from weddings these days.....

if it is in her house you can give alittle less....

did you have an e-party? give her what she gave you that is the trick i usually do when going to parties...

alot of bride/grooms do not registr until after the engament parrty because they want MONEY as a gift to put towards the wedding.....

No im not having an engagment party, no dj, its at her FH house, there having catered food and just a big bbq thing....i def think 200 dollars is obsurd!

Money is perfect. I think you asked how much . . . as a bm, I think I would give $100. Or $50-$75 with a small gift.

is it tacky to get her a personalized sweatshirt w/ the future mrs **** on it plus $$$ ?

i would give $50 and maybe a small gift, so about 75 total. i think $200 is crazy for an engagement party gift, too!! engagment parties are supposed to be just to celebrate the couples engagement, not to be a fundraiser to help pay for the wedding! especially since it sounds like its gonna be a more casual thing, AND espeically since you're going to be putting out $$$$ to be a BM.

Definitely money, 150-200 I think will do.
If you cant afford to give that much maybe give less and get her a nice personalized frame or a planner.

my MOH just had her e-party. while we already had an aggreement that neither of us would give to the other seeing as how we are each other MOH`s that we`ll be doing enough over the next year, i brought a card and i know she got ton of cash gift cards to BBB and william sonoma and pier one and such. she also got things like towels and coffee/tea sets. it really depends on the bride and groom to be`s situation. have they been living together?? if so the probably don`t need house stuff so much. cash is the safe route, this way they can put it towards the wedding or whatever they may need.
