12 best engagement gifts that they’ll actually use and appreciate in 2023

Whether you were there every step of the way, helping the groom choose the diamond ring, making sure the bride had her nails done before the big day or quite literally hiding in the bushes to get the perfect shot of their proposal — celebrations are definitely in order.

On the other hand, maybe the newly engaged couple kept their proposal a bit more private and you’ve just received the awaited FaceTime video call or saw a photo of the moment on social media. No matter the scenario, one of your favorite couples just decided to spend the rest of their lives together. We cant think of a better time to send a thoughtful gift or bring it along to their engagement party!

Ahead we rounded up a dozen different options that every type of couple will enjoy, with options as low as $15. From personalized picks you can find on Etsy to a boutique of flowers from UrbanStems, there’s something on our list that’s bound to fit the bill.
