Gift suggestion?

My brother just got engaged!Chat Icon
He's been with his fiancé for forever and she's already part of the family. We aren't best friends but we're very comfortable with each other and get along great. I'd like to send her/them a little gift to acknowledge their engagement (they're in Chicago). Any suggestions? I'm looking to spend under $50 but want it to be cute and maybe have some meaning.

Check Uncommon Goods. I always see lots of cute stuff that can be sent as engagement gifts in the catalogues they send.

I got my one friend a ring holder with their initials and as a combo gift I got them a wine and beer glass engraved that says mrs always right and mr right. go them both from etsy.

I am also planning on getting another friend that just got engaged an engraved cutting or maybe one of those books that have their initials made from the pages.


ETA: here is the wine/beer glasses

ring holder
