Gift from divorced father who is giving the daughter away

Father and mother are divorced, but daughter wants him to give her away. He purchased two engraved wine glasses as a gift to the couple, but is this a proper gift if they have already purchased a pair for the reception. He merely wants his to be a keepsake. Okay or not?

Hello Shirley,

It is acceptable for the father to give engraved wine glasses. He can write an accompanying note indicating his reason for the gift. I am sure his daughter will treasurer his gift for years to come.
