Unsure what to write?

For a Valentine’s Gift it would be nice to put your anniversary date on the gift. As Valentine’s is a day to celebrate love and relationships why not add a nod to you and your partners anniversary. When adding a date to your gift, a good piece of advice is to separate each number with full stops instead of forward slashes, it makes the engraving come out a lot clearer. Another lovely, engraved addition to your gift is your loved one’s initials. This is even more special if you are newlyweds and your initials have recently changed. An alternative to this is adding ‘Mr’ or ‘Mrs’ and then your surname to a glass, a sentimental nod to your commitment to each other. Another way to engrave a gift for your loved one could be simply adding their name. A popular option amongst our customers is to add a special quote or message.

Here are some examples of some popular romantic quotes to engrave on your gift:

-          “Take my hand, take my whole life too. For I can’t help falling in love with you.” - Elvis Presley

-          “I’ve tried so many times to think of a new way to say it, and it’s still I love you.”  - Zelda Fitzgerald

-          “He’s more myself than I am. Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same.” - Emily Bronte

-          “My heart is and always will be yours.” – Jane Austen

Although it sounds simple, make sure to check the spelling and grammar in your message. People often make spelling mistakes on their items, which can take away some of the magic from your sentimental gift.
