Yes! How nice are you looking for it to be?

Celebratory and cute:
- If she likes subscription boxes, BrideBox was a huge with my friends.
- cute glassware/hats/bags that say “bride to be” or “I’m engaged!”
- wine/champagne (you can get custom labels that say “engaged x date” or “drink on your anniversary” )
— wedding planner (the actual book)
- something from her registry if it exists

Sentimental:
- a porcelain or silver ring dish (perhaps from Tiffany)
- take or treat her and her fiancé to a dinner
- framed engagement photo
- engagement photo shoot if they haven’t had one
- a nice version of something that represents your brother or sister hood (a little more difficult, but I’m sure you have a “thing”. Maybe a map of where you grew up showing the connection to where she is now with her partner or a specific food)


You can also never go wrong with a card gushing about how happy you are she found a partner and that you’ll always be there for her and cannot wait to celebrate her love.

Love it! They will love it, too :)

Have any of you felt your careers aren’t progressing as fast as your yt contemporaries? I just went down a LinkedIn rabbit hole looking through the profiles of some women (non-black) who I worked alongside 12-15 years ago at internships and entry level roles. Almost all of them are director level. I’m still struggling to get to manager level. All of us started in media roles then transitioned to tech in the last 5 years or so. Has anyone else noticed this?
