Maybe it’s your connected-at-the-hip sister who’s getting married, or maybe it’s your boss’s cousin’s neighbour or the local postman’s daughter. Whoever the bride is, she surely deserves a thoughtful gift – and what better way to show you’re thinking of her than with a personalised gift? That extra personal touch can turn an okay present into a ‘I can’t believe you bought me this’ present!
Stuck for ideas? That’s what we’re here to help you with! Read on for some of our favourite customisable wedding gifts for the lucky bride…
Romantic Jigsaw Puzzle
Great for an anniversary, but especially perfect as a wedding gift, you can have the wedding location or the place where the bride and groom first met placed at the centre of a lovely jigsaw puzzle. The puzzle features a map of the area and novelty pieces, including an ‘I love you’ and a heart at the very centre.
With 400 pieces, this puzzle isn’t easy either, but the bride can occupy herself with completing it in those nervous hours leading up to the ceremony!

Wedding Tree Frame
A picture frame is a classic but elegant wedding gift, so why not take it up a notch with this handmade tree frame? Customise the colour of the tree, the couple’s name and the date of the wedding on this beautiful frame, which comes embellished with pearls, diamante and scatter crystals.

Compact Mirror
Have a custom message engraved on the back of this beautiful silver-plated compact mirror, perfect for last-minute touch ups the day of the wedding. This is a gorgeous gift that will last the bride not only through the ceremony but through the years.

Red Wine Bottle
Share a celebratory bottle of the good red stuff on the big day! This bottle can be personalised with the names of the happy couple and a message of your choosing, printed on a high-quality water-resistant label. Take your pick of wine varieties from Vin de France or French Appellation Controllee.
Starting at £16.99 on I Just Love It. Buy it here.
Wish String Bracelet
Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue. This wish string bracelet satisfies the last line of this traditional wedding rhyme. The bride can simply tie the bracelet around her wrist and make a wish, and when the string wears through, her wish is released. It’s a simple but sweet concept, and the bracelet itself will look minimalistic and gorgeous on her as she walks down the aisle.
£3 on Etsy. Buy it here.
Mints
Yes, you read that right. Mints. The last thing you want the bride worrying about on her big day is whether her breath smells less than fresh. Give her a burst of confidence (and minty fresh breath) all the way up to when those famous words are uttered: ‘You may now kiss the bride.’
(Bonus: the mints come in a personalised tin that can be cherished and reused for years to come.)

Newspaper Front Page
Make the bride front page news with our unique personalised newspaper gift. Printed on textured paper and tied with a ribbon (we’ll even let you pick the colour), this page will commemorate the wedding day as a lovely post-wedding gift. This makes the perfect framed gift!
It gets better: want your newspaper to be even more personalised? We offer – drum roll please – live reporting! I’ll come to your wedding, report on events as they unfold and take quotes from attendees to make a truly meaningful newspaper page. The newlyweds will have a stunning and timeless gift that will last for years.
