“The manner of giving is worth more than the gift.” Le Menterur 1642
It’s your wedding and as a couple you want to make it personal and distinctive! This is no ordinary day; this is a day that calls for extraordinary thank you gifts. From your engagement announcement until your wedding day, not only will you be receiving presents, you will be giving them too!
You will want to add special, personalized touches to many areas of your wedding planning; for your wedding party, your ceremony, your stag and doe, for the people who go above and beyond for you,and for out- of -town wedding guests.
Custom personalization adds a creative touch for those special people who touch your life with their help and love. Finding that special gift to say thank you to them, whether simple or grand is easy to do at a local specialty product business. These businesses offer custom embroidery, special digital and vinyl printing services and will do the design for you. They will bring your ideas to reality while working with your budget.
They offer great gift ideas from the perfect monogrammed bathrobes for your bridesmaids to director’s chairs for your groomsmen. They can do couch throws, blankets, ties, clothing bags and more and will personalize them for you.
With thousands of fonts to choose from and a rainbow of coloured threads available, they have the ability to put images on most anything from mugs to coasters, towels, mouse pads to canvas tote bags.
Your wedding favours are a way of bestowing your “love luck” onto your guests and can be small simple keepsakes; a mug, coaster or luggage tag with your engagement photo screened on it with your wedding date and name or initials makes a novel gift idea.
You can also monogram wedding scarves and sashes, aisle runners and ring pillows for your ceremony.
Couples hosting destination weddings have been personalizing flip flips with their wedding details and guests have been are delighted with the gesture.
Brides today are adding that sentimental, “something blue” by affixing a special message, name or symbol and having it embroidered onto the lining of their wedding gown.

You may also want to do a custom gift for your future spouse. A tee shirt, a quotation on a mug, wall art with a quotation for a room in your home, you can create that perfect item.
Once your gifts have been selected pay equal attention to the presentation. Beautifully wrap them, using ribbons and elegantly designed gift tags. Thanking your family, friends and loved ones from the heart with a keepsake, forever gift that you have designed will create a memory forever.
