Practical but Purposeful: BirdRock Premium Double Laundry Hamper

When a new couple is just starting out in a new home, they need practically everything. People often rush to get them the cutesy couples stuff. Others rush to get them kitchen appliances and matching bath sets.

What often gets overlooked is a nice, durable laundry hamper. While the first few weeks of marital bliss may be spent in a lazy haze of irresponsibility, eventually the new couple will have to get back to the real world.

When that happens, they’re going to need clean clothes. Trust us on this one; they will love a good laundry basket.

The Gift of Peace: LIGHTSHARE Cherry Blossom Bonsai Light

This lovely gift combines two of the most well-known and appreciated symbols in the Asian culture: a bonsai tree and a cherry blossom tree. The bonsai tree represents balance, peace and harmony, which are certainly three things a newly engaged couple needs in their home.

The cherry blossom lights on the tree represent the beauty and fragility of life, which will remind the two newly engaged lovebirds not to take one another for granted. It’s a beautiful, thoughtful gift that will also be a lovely addition to any room.

Some Alone Time: INNO STAGE Wicker Picnic Basket for 2

Another thoughtful gift for the newly engaged couple is this wicker picnic basket for two. Often, the best gift you can give to two people in love is an excuse to go spend some alone time together. That’s exactly what this basket does.

Give Them the World: Scratch Off Map of The World

This is another great gift for the couple who loves to travel. This map makes a gorgeous wall hanging simply hanging there, as-is by itself. However, the great thing about it is that it’s a scratch-off map, which allows couples to scratch off the areas in the world to which they’ve traveled.

Give Them a Good Night’s Sleep: Bluetooth Sleeping Eye Mask Headphones

One of the only, and we do mean only, bad things about becoming engaged and getting married is having to give up your half-across the bed, snoring like a steam locomotive, hogging all the covers sleeping habits.

Help them out by buying one or both of them this Bluetooth sleeping eye mask. If they like it dark, this will give them a total blackout. If one of them likes listening to music, this will allow him/her to do so comfortably without disturbing the other.
