What Should You Write on a Personalised Gift?

The best wording for a personalised gift is usually simple, meaningful and easy to read. You do not need to fill every available space for the gift to feel personal.

What details work well?

A name, family name, meaningful date or short message can be enough. For weddings and anniversaries, names and a date are natural choices. Birthday gifts might use a name or brief phrase connected to the recipient.

Should personalised gift wording be long?

Not necessarily. Shorter wording often gives the design more breathing room, particularly when it is combined with a photograph or detailed artwork. The amount of text that works comfortably also depends on the shape and size of the product.

What should I check before ordering?

Check spelling, names and dates carefully. If you are combining wording with a photograph, consider which element should be most prominent rather than making both compete for attention.
