Here are seven gift ideas for the soonlyweds in your life!

Gifts for the Newly Engaged

Calligraphy Address Stamp: Between engagement announcements, save-the-dates, invitations and thank you cards, now that they're engaged, your soonlyweds have a lot of mail to send! So if you want to give a gift that you know will be used and will help make the daunting task more fun, this customizable address stamp with beautiful calligraphy in 26 different color options is the perfect choice.

Ours DecanterWe love this gift because when things are so often separated as his and his or his and hers, it can be one of the first things that a couple can put in their home that is theirs. This crystal decanter is perfect for holding a celebratory velvety red wine or a perfectly aged whiskey, and with a super sleek design, it's begging to be put on display.

She Put a Ring on It Mug: She liked it, so she put a ring on it! We love this mug because it shatters gender roles and shows some love for our gals who get down on one knee. You can even choose which side you want the mug handle to be on, which is important if you want your morning cup of joe selfie to feature your new sparkling bling!

This question and answer three-year journal will gift a newly engaged couple with an experience, a connection and memories that will last a lifetime. With a new question for each day of the year, couples will have a chance to learn new things about each other and look back on years past to see how they've grown.

There's no better way to flaunt a soonlywed status than with a fun phone case that will bring a smile to their face every time they pull it out.
