Shop for a Cause: Uptown Liz Holiday Gift Guide For Engaged Couples

Written by guest blogger Bethany Bowen

December is the most popular month for engagements; about 1 in 5 proposals happen around the holidays. Do you know a newly engaged couple? Buy them a gift to show your happiness and support for their future union.

The couple might want to add a special touch to the wedding by buying butterflies for the event. Buy the couple a gift certificate for this company, and let them decide what they want. It will be a lovely touch to what is sure to be a beautiful wedding.

It might seem cheesy, but buy the couple a set of matching tees. The groom might put up a little fight, but I’d bet you’ll see them wearing the shirts on their honeymoon!
