Now that January has hit, many of us are likely to know at least one couple who have just got engaged. According to WeddingWire, over 40% of proposals happen between November and February.
So if you’ve now got a wedding to go to, congrats! Perhaps you are now wondering where you can find the perfect engagement gift. I have done lots of research and compiled this list of the best engagement gifts for couples in 2020. They’re quirky, reasonable for any budget and bound to please any pair!
Before I present this list to you, I just want to add that many of these items are from small businesses on Etsy. I really love to support smaller, independent businesses as I know how much of a struggle it can be with such a mass market like gifting. Please bear this in mind when purchasing.

The Best Engagement Gifts For Couples In 2020
Wedding Fund Pot
We’ve all seen this type of money box before for various occasions, but the personalised design really sold this to me. It’s something that can be treasured even after the wedding.
Personalised Shot Glass
Getting engaged is an exciting time, so celebrations are on the cards! What better way to do this than with a personalised shot glass? Bring it along on the hen, too!
Engagement Print
This would be the perfect gift if someone you’re really close to has just got engaged. It’s romantic, thoughtful and just so pretty!
Initial Ring Dish
Although an engagement gift, a ring dish is really helpful as they’re use it long after the event. It would also make a lovely anniversary or wedding gift.
Couples Passport Holders
Any couple are bound to love these matching passport holders – perfect for their honeymoon.
Pear Cloche
This unique gift is like nothing I’ve ever seen before! It reminds me of a little terrarium and would be great for a couple that seem to already have the more obvious things.
Couples Pillowcases
So cute! Not only great for engagement, but would make a lovely wedding, anniversary or Valentine’s gift too.
Engagement Candle
This personalised candle would be a wonderful gift for couples that have recently moved in or bought their own home. It’s fully personalisable and arrives beautifully presented, too.
Personalised Wedding Planner
Can you tell I love personalised items yet? Simple but beautiful – a super helpful (and fun) gift for the bride to be.
Engraved Vase
You can’t have too many vases, so why not get this beautiful design for the newly engaged couple?
Miniature Plant Pot
This adorable little plant pot is available in a range of colours and would make a lovely addition to any home.
Name Cushion
I really want one of these for myself! The font on this cushion looks so elegant and pretty I can just imagine this on my sofa.
Glass & Dish Set
This set is currently on offer at £11.81 (Jan ’20) which for two personalised items is such good value! Any bride to be is bound to love it.
Framed Love Story
This item is so unique, I’ve never seen anything like it in the shops. You can add or take out any of the headings for it to perfectly match any couple’s story.
Countdown Plaque
Of course you can buy standard countdowns on the high street but I had to add this design as it’s just so beautiful! I wouldn’t want to put it away after the wedding day…
Personalised Coasters
If you’re looking for a gift on a smaller budget, these coasters would be perfect. They are stylish and thoughtful yet inexpensive so it’s a win-win!
Bride To Be Chocolate
You can’t go wrong with chocolate – who doesn’t like chocolate? Mind you, this is so pretty I wouldn’t want to ruin it..
Best Friend Card
I know this is meant to be a gift list but I had to add this card, it’s so beautiful! I’d be over the moon to receive this if I got engaged.
Initial Keyring
If you’re after a small gift then these little keyrings would be perfect! As the mini jigsaw pieces fit together, it would be a wonderful engagement, wedding or anniversary gift for any couple.
Book Art
I wanted to save one of my favourites until last. As a book lover myself, I would LOVE to receive this as a gift whether it be for an engagement, wedding or anniversary. It’s so unique and would be such a feature in any home.
So there we have it – these are just a few of the best engagement gifts for couples in 2020. It was a tricky choice as there are so many beautiful items out there but those products featured were showing just a few of what I thought were the best ones.
