Choosing a 1st wedding anniversary gift
For a first anniversary present for your wife, the paper pieces that get kept are the personal ones: the lyrics of your first dance printed as a poster, a photo book of the wedding and the year since, or fresh flowers delivered on the morning — the Parisian Mixed Roses bouquet is the classic. For your husband, a newspaper spoof with his name in the headline, a Building Our Lives Together personalised claw hammer for the new house, or an engraved whiskey glass in its presentation box. Family and friends buying for the couple can keep it light: a bottle of Happy Wedding Anniversary personalised champagne, a pair of Mr and Mrs crystal flutes, or a Happy Anniversary personalised Irish milk chocolate bar.
What is the traditional 1st wedding anniversary gift?
Paper is the traditional gift for a first wedding anniversary, and clocks are the modern one. Paper covers far more than it sounds: prints and posters, photo books, a framed newspaper spoof or a gift book. For the modern list, our personalised oval optic crystal clock can be engraved with your names and the wedding date.
Can I personalise a 1st anniversary gift?
Yes — posters, photo books, newspaper spoofs, the crystal clock, crystal flutes, whiskey glasses, candles and wine or champagne labels can all carry your names, the wedding date or a message. Personalised pieces are made to order in our Irish workshop.
How will the gift be presented?
Gifts sent straight to the recipient always arrive well-presented — exactly how depends on the gift. A hamper typically arrives in its own gift box, while other items are usually wrapped in tissue with a gift bag and ribbon, though presentation varies by item. You can also include a personalised card with your own message, added at checkout.
When should I order for a 1st wedding anniversary?
Orders ship daily from Dublin, so ready-made gifts such as flowers, chocolates and champagne are a safe choice even close to the day. Personalised pieces are made to order, so allow a few extra working days for printing or engraving. Delivery is available across Ireland, the UK and Europe; fresh flowers and balloons are delivered within Ireland only.
