Budget Friendly Engagement Gifts
When this special time comes in a friend’s life, it’s a super sweet gesture to give a little gift in celebration of the occasion, especially with your closest friends.
It probably seems like everyone you know is getting engaged around the same time, and it can be tough to grab engagement gifts for multiple people so close together, so finding something meaningful and friendly on the wallet is super important.

We have to admit, we spent more than a teeny bit of time scouring all the awesome options over there. It’s so easy to fall down that rabbit hole!! We also threw in a couple of faves from BHLDN because we couldn’t resist them. ?
