Engagement Gift Ideas
***
Happy New Year! Here’s to our first post of 2020 and a whole New Year of Bride Society content! (Hoping it’s not just us that’s excited about that! Comment below and say hi.)
We hope you had a lovely time over the holidays, however you spent it. For me that meant Canada (home is in the UK if you weren’t sure) with my husband’s side of the family, and I’m now sat on the plane home on New Year’s Day (sadly an early flight so I was asleep before midnight on New Years’ for the first time since childhood) writing this blog, closed in on my north, south, east and west by children still hopped up on the remnants of Christmas candy, thinking these 7 hours are going to be a challenge! However, thanks to my Mother-in-Law for my noise cancelling headphones this Christmas, I’m instead able to focus my attention on all you engaged brides and grooms-to-be down there and how much I’m looking forward to being a part of your journey down the aisle. Join us over on YouTube every Friday for all our video content from advice, to DIYs, to honeymoon inspiration and lots more. Plus check out our Instagram page where you can find us; Rebecca and Laura, and the rest of the Society for more inspo, support and the personal touch from our community of brides and grooms to be.

Know someone who got engaged over the Christmas – New Year period?
Whilst the January blues may soon be hitting hard for many, the excitement is just kicking off for some – hooray! Congratulations to you or whoever that person/couple in your life is! If you were just starting to contemplate heading back up into the loft with the left-over rolls of wrapping paper and feeling grateful you don’t have to head into another store filled with crowds of frenzied shoppers, you may want to hang back a second. That’s right, we’re thinking ‘engagement gifts’. By no means compulsory, but if the person/couple is close to you, you may be looking for something small to mark the special occasion.
If your present buying brain power has already imploded in a post-Christmas related trauma, fear not, we have the answers! This week’s video is packed full of our favourite engagement gift ideas for the newly engaged couple and there are even some helpful links below to get you going (none of these are affiliate links, they are purely here because we think they’re awesome!). We also have a Pinterest board that specifically accompanies this video here.
Congratulations again! Comment below if you have any other great engagement gift ideas to help each other out, we all appreciate it!
