I don’t think it really matters as long as it is nice.
Flowers, a serving platter, fancy dessert.
It’s not about what he brings, it is about that he brings some thing b’kavid, that looks like effort was put in, and he wasn’t being cheap. That doesn’t mean you need to spend above your means, it just means don’t buy dead flowers on the side of the highway or a boxed Entenmann's cake from the supermarket.

One of our sons in law brought flowers for me a wine opening set for DH and because we still had younger kids at the time a small gift for them. He may also have brought chocolate.

The other one brought a a serving dish for me, a wine opening set for dh LOL and a fancy cake.

As mentioned previously, it doesn't really matter, just as long as it looks like some thought was put into it.

Depending on your circles, I say keep it simple.
My relative told me their Chosson brought elaborate, expensive gifts for her and her DH, for the Kallah, and for each of her kids. It created so much pressure to reciprocate when the Kallah went to his family for Shabbos.

I'm glad our Chosson didn't....he brought something very nice and tasteful L'Kovod Shabbos, and flowers for the Kallah.

Give your ds the same thing you would bring any other family hosting him for Shabbat.

If there are gifts he is planning on giving her anyway now could be a nice time to bring them. Ex, DH came twice for shabbos, once he brought me a wedding countdown and once he brought a Siddur/tehillim (I wanted these instead of machzorim)

I think my dh brought a candy/chocolate platter.
I had a bunch of younger single siblings at the time and they all enjoyed it!
Really doesn't need to he anything fancy.

The flowers weren’t for his kallah? That’s cute he brought for you.
