Engagement party thanks

Jami, on February 24, 2020 at 6:06 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 5
One of my bridesmaids is throwing my engagement party this Saturday. She offered to do so of her own volition before I even asked her to be in the wedding party. It’ll be at her house and while it is big, we can’t have every guest come (max 50 people). As far as I’m aware, her and her husband are covering the cost of the food, drinks and any decorations. From the very beginning I’ve told her profusely thankful I am she’s doing this and she doesn’t have to go crazy. I said I’d be fine if she wanted to do light snack and no alcohol (it’s from 11-3) and she’s chosen to do a full lunch spread and beer/wine.
I’m just feeling like verbally thanking her is not enough and I should get her something as thanks. What do y’all think and what would you say is a good thank you gift? Thanks!! 😁

    It's very typical to give a hostess gift. A Starbucks gift card, a nice bottle of wine, a gift card to her favorite nail salon or restaurant.

    I think a gift to them would be a really good idea ! Maybe even like some date night gift cards like movie theatre tickets or gift card to their favorite restaurant

    I think a cute gift basket for the couple would be lovely - either for couples massages, escape room certificates, anything they might like, and make it a theme gift. Smiley smile

    That's very nice of her . I would say something she been saying she wants and a thank you card or a gift card with a thank you card. The thought that counts.
