I Need Your Help with an Engagement Present...

Our Best Man just got engaged and we are going over to their apartment on Saturday to celebrate.

We have no idea what to get them as an engagement present.

His fiance moved in with him into his studio about a year ago.

What should I get them?

If age matters I believe she is 28 and he is 29.

TIA.

How about a GC to jcpenny's for engagement pics? Even if they decide to do something more casual, it is a nice headshot if they want to put announcement in paper

What about getting them a bottle of good champagne to bring over their house or a cake that says 'congratulations...' and than waiting until she registers to get them their actual engagement gift. Do you think they will have a E Party?

If they celebrate Christmas you might be able to find a really pretty ornament that says 'Engaged 2004'. My SIL gave us one last year and now she plans on getting us one for this year since we're married.

Or just bring a bottle of champagne to celebrate and give them a gift card
