The 34 Best Engagement Gifts for Couples of 2022

The Painted Press Ring Dish

View On Etsy

Price at time of publish: $15

This little dish may be the gift they treasure the most—it will help keep their engagement rings and wedding bands safe on the nightstand or next to the sink. Personalize it with the happy couple's initials and engagement date for a thoughtful touch.

Associate Fashion Editor Erika Reals liked the overall look of the product, including the packaging that it came in. "There was a muslin cotton drawstring bag that's stamped with the brand's logo," she said. "It's a nice touch that really makes the gift feel handmade and extra personalized." The site offers several versions of customization and design, ranging from minimalist letters to more ornate floral motifs.

Reals didn't love the matte finish and quality of the material, but she appreciated that the dish was extremely durable. "Since it's not made of traditional ceramic or glass, these dishes won't break in transit or if it gets dropped on the floor." She even tried dropping it on the floor several times to test the strength of the material, and was not disappointed.

Inspired Print Store Custom Couple Print

Price at time of publish: $17

They'll treasure this personalized portrait for years to come. Customize everything from hairstyles and outfits to the pets on either side of the couple. It's a touching gift that will earn a permanent place of honor on their wall.

Senior Editor Kate Donovan ordered a custom version of this print representing herself, her partner, and their cats. "This print came out a little differently than what I had expected, but it's cute," she said. "The design has a whimsical, handmade vibe that feels cheerful." Donovan felt that the personalization options were a little limited and wished that there was more variety in the clothing. "For the women, there were only striped patterns in different colors and solid white shirts," she said. Donovan also was a little confused that it was marketed as a "gay wedding gift," but that there weren't any LGBTQ+ cultural signifiers. "It felt a little one-dimensional and watered down." she said.

Betty Lu Paperie Custom Wedding Address Stamp

Price at time of publish: $38

When it comes to practical gifts, this one may just take the cake. Between save-the-dates, wedding invites, and thank-you notes, the couple is going to have a lot of mail going out. Make their lives easier and help them streamline the process with this custom ink and stamp set featuring their return address.

Senior Editor Maggie Krienberg tested out the stamp on a range of different envelopes. "The font is really pretty and gives the envelope a vintage feel," she observed. "I like how the name is written in script and the address is more of a typewriter style." Krienberg also was impressed with the ink pad that came in the package, but wished that the stamp itself came with a case or a lid. "After a few uses, there is still some residual ink on the stamp so I wouldn't want to store this stamp loosely in a drawer or cabinet," she said.

Overall, Krienberg was a fan of the stamp: "I would buy this as an engagement gift for a couple getting married, or even as a housewarming gift for a friend moving into a new home. It's product that the recipient will get so much use from, even after the wedding."

Agier Design Adventure Together Print

View On Etsy

Price at time of publish: $55

Choose from three memorable locations—think the couple’s hometowns, where they met, where they live, or the wedding location—to create a hand-crafted, map-inspired piece of art. You can even add custom text (such as the wedding date) to make it that much more personalized. It comes in various sizes and framing options at a range of prices, too.

"This wooden map print is very well made and the print itself is clear," said Editor Jesa Calaor. "The wood is durable and doesn't feel like it would break easily." Calaor personalized this print as a gift for her partner, featuring locations that have important meaning for both of them. "I love how each mountain is shown with a detailed terrain map that represents those special places," she said.

Personalized Gift Box Custom Cutting Board

View On Etsy

Price at time of publish: $29

There are plenty of custom cutting boards to be found out there, but few are as beautifully crafted and elegant as this one. Along with selecting the text, there’s an assortment of sizes and materials to choose from—including marble, walnut, and white oak—so you can pick one that you think will best suit the couple’s style.

"The quality of this board is really nice and it has a good weight to it," said Senior Editor Kate Donovan. "It's a bit smaller in size than what I had anticipated, but would be a great option as a little charcuterie board or accent serving platter." There are a range of larger sizes available on the site, however, so it's possible to choose something different if you're looking for a bigger board.

Donovan loved the color of the stain on the board, but felt like the name on the front was a little large in scale. "Because the carved letters take up so much of the surface, it's hard for me to imagine using this as an actual cutting board," she said. She mentioned that there were other design options available that might be better suited for that purpose. In general, she also wished there were a few more modern fonts to choose from.

Do One Thing Every Day Together: A Journal for Two

Price at time of publish: $13

Couples will continue to be surprised by one another with this journal for two. Filled with daily prompts, it offers couples tons of ways to connect and ideas for spending time together. Cute, fun, and inspiring, this journal will keep the communication going—essential for any relationship.

Associate Fashion Editor Erika Reals spent time going through this book, and felt that it was a good budget gift for a couple. "It has a high-quality look and feel, but at under $12, it's very affordable," she said. The book is full of many ideas and activities: "Lots of prompts means that these pages will last you and your partner awhile."

Reals felt that some of the quotations and concepts in the book were slightly outdated, but that it was overall a nice interactive experience to do with a partner. "Personally, this product was a little too cheesy for my taste, but I can definitely see some people really enjoying it."

Minted Heart Snapshot Mix Photo Art

View On Minted

Price at time of publish: $29

=Surprise the newlywed couple with a personalized gift that they'll treasure forever. This show-stopping print features 30 of your favorite photos in a bold heart design—and it's possible to customize everything from the placement of the images to the size and frame of the finished piece. Go with the classic photo colors or try out one of Minted's fun new finishes—black and white, blush, or rainbow—for a whimsical, retro look.

Production Manager Alyssa Kingham customized this print with photos from her recent wedding. "The photos are laid out in a beautiful way," she said. "The images are very clear, and do not show any bleeding of color or blurry edges." She mentioned that the heart-shaped arrangement meant that there was some overlap, but she was still able to see each picture well.

Kingham was a little disappointed in the quality of the frame. "For the price, I would rather have a glass front instead of clear plastic." That option was available, but that would have been an additional charge that Kingham felt would make the overall piece too expensive. She mentioned that the frame also arrived slightly damaged and could have used better packaging. "I would definitely buy this print for myself or someone else, but I think I would choose to get it unframed."
