| What's on wish list of young working women? Something nice but not bank breaking. Gift card? Perfume? |

| No perfume unless you know exactly what she wants. Gift card to Sephora, nice spa in area, museum membership |

How about very high end battery operated candles, like Uyuni

A cashmere scarf or throw blanket.
Definitely not perfume and definitely not anything she can't take on a plane, if she's flying. |

If two adults date for years and decide to get into a long term relationship, shouldn't they be able to understand each other without holding each other's parents responsible to really introduce them to each other? |

I talked to my son about ideas.
Ended up with a nice pair of ugg slippers. |

| I feel like young people tend to be too picky and judgy so probably unless you've luxe budget, a small money card is a safe option. Well, they may still judge you for not making enough effort. |

Talking to your son FTW! Congratulations on this new adventure in life, becoming a MiL. Choosing a gift based on a personal recommendation shows DIL you are seeing her as a person. Much nicer than an impersonal gift card. |

Young people are usually still setting up their home, so maybe a Christmas cookie jar, rolling pin and cookie cutters?
You could to a nice chef's knife and cutting board. Or a set of steak knives. Or an immersion blender and soup recipe book. Nice wine glasses from Crate and Barrel and a bottle of wine? |

What? No. The Ugg slippers that OP's son suggested are perfect. I'm aghast at your sexist suggestions. And I cook and bake. But these seem a lot like gifts for this woman to serve/perform for OP's son. |
