On being asked about the effect of gifts on a relationship, Jui says, “Any gift is a form of expressing love, care, and respect, denoting that the other person is special to you.” Gifts offer an effective way to forge strong relationships. Jui adds, “Gifts are important, especially from the people who we are closest to. They tell us how well a loved one knows us, and how and what they think of us. They bring delight to our routine and busy schedules, reminding us how loved we are. Gifts have the power to bring in positive emotions in relationships.” If someone close to you is getting engaged, presents and surprises are the perfect way to share in their happiness. Jui says, “The early phase of a relationship is loaded with excitement, the couple getting engaged has a lot to look forward to. Picking the right gifts for them is the perfect way to express how happy you are for them.” Speak the gift-giving language of love with our list of engagement gifts and impress the newly hitched couple (or your partner if you are the one getting engaged).

Engagement Gifts For Couples: Our Top 30 Picks
You should consider a few things while choosing couples’ engagement gifts so that they remember you every time they look at or use your present. If you are close to only either the bride-to-be or the groom-to-be, your heart may be pushing you to get something keeping in mind his or her choices. But it’s always better to pick something gender-neutral that both of them can enjoy. When it comes to gifts, price is just a number.

Items with practical value also make for great engagement gifts. As they are going to set up a new home soon, every couple would appreciate decor pieces, appliances, cutlery, and crackpots.
