Six Unique Engagement Gifts For the Couple


Finding unique engagement gifts for the couple can be fun and it will be nice to give them something different, rather than traditional gifts of flowers and wine. The engagement gift can be something useful that the couple can use while planning their wedding, or something unique that they will be sure to remember.

* House Cleaning Service
A house cleaning service for the engaged couple can be a lifesaver during their hectic wedding planning days ahead. Find a reputable house cleaning service by asking friends and family who live near the couple. Choose coupons for single service cleanings, so that the couple will not be tied to a schedule, and instead be able to call and schedule a cleaning when they need it. This gift will be especially appreciated if you think that the couple will be hosting events at their home, such as the bridal shower or housing out-of-town guests for the wedding.

* Engagement Photography Session
A gift certificate for the couple to have their engagement photos taken would be a wonderful gift. Engagement photos are usually taken before the invitations are mailed out so that they can be included. A local photographer would work best and it is a good idea to take a look at their portfolio so that you are certain they will do a great job for the engaged couple.

* Cooking Lessons
Cooking lessons would be a fun and educational gift for the couple to enjoy. The lessons will give the couple a break from the wedding planning and offer them a unique date night. It will also be good practice for when the couple will start cooking as a married couple. Cooking lessons are usually held at local colleges and restaurants, check in the couple's local area for information on where lessons are taught.

* Dancing Lessons
Dancing lessons are a unique engagement gift for a newly engaged couple - especially if they already claim to have two left feet. They will be in the spotlight for their first dance at the wedding and getting them prepared can really help them to calm their nerves. A dancing lesson gift certificate should be for a dance company or dance instructor who is local. Call up the company or instructor you are considering to see if they specialize in first dances and let them know how you are planning to use the gift certificate.

* Personal Chef
A personal chef can really help to ease the stress for the newly engaged couple. Wedding planning will certainly ensure very busy days ahead and the couple will appreciate a break from cooking. A personal chef can work two ways, he or she can come into the home with their cooking equipment and ingredients and cook at the home or they can cook in their own kitchen and deliver the food to the couple. Check out what options are available for chefs in your area and ask them for a sample menu that you can present to the couple with coupons for a certain number of meals.

* Fortune Teller Gift Certificate
A gift certificate to a psychic or fortune teller can be a truly unique engagement gift for a couple who is preparing for the married life, although the gift may not appreciated by every couple, so make sure that your couple would be open to this idea before getting the certificate. Getting them a reading with a local fortune teller can be fun gift that will hopefully give them some fun events to look forward to. If you can, get a reading with the fortune teller beforehand to ensure that it will be a good, and fun, experience for the couple.
