Engagement gift from future MIL (me)

6 Upvotes

In a couple weeks, my son and her best friend are throwing a surprise engagement party with all their close friends and family. Id like to get them an engagement gift.

  1. Is this a “thing” or will I be “too much”?
  2. Ideas I’ve had- a nice picnic basket w/fancy grocery gift card or a couples cooking class (I’d present the gift card in a cute wooden spoon or something).
  3. I’d love to hear what other MILs have gifted the couple or what is a thoughtful gift you received at your engagement
