A social for an engaged couple or already married couple? If it's an engaged couple (such as an engagement party), I'd bring something small, like a bottle of wine and a congratulations card. If it's an already married couple, I would bring a gift if I did not bring one to the wedding (it's okay to send gifts up to one year after the fact). But, if we're talking about just some kind of get together, I'd do a very small host/hostess gift (flowers, stationary, kitchen utensil, etc...)
