Personalised wooden anniversary gift — engraved oak sign with couple's names, date and anniversary year

Personalised Wooden Anniversary Gift Ideas

Direct answer: a personalised wooden clock, poem sign or coaster set are the most popular anniversary gifts we make — all lasting keepsakes that go into a couple's home rather than a consumable. Here are five specific ideas, several of which fit the 5th (wood) anniversary tradition.

  1. Personalised Wooden Wall Clock — A wooden wall clock engraved with both names and the wedding date is a lasting gift that goes straight into the home. Particularly fitting for a 5th (wood) anniversary. See our Wedding Couple Wall Clock and Mr & Mrs Wall Clock.

  2. Personalised Wooden Coasters — Personalised wooden coasters can add a touch of warmth to any home. You can choose from a range of designs and personalise them with your names, a special message or your anniversary date. See our full coasters range.

  3. Personalised Poem or Message Sign — We engrave your own words onto oak. Our poem sign and extra large poem sign let you choose exactly what gets engraved.

  4. Wedding Surname Meaning Sign — The Wedding Surname Meaning Sign is engraved with the couple's shared surname and its meaning — a popular 1st or 5th anniversary gift in four sizes.

  5. Personalised Oak Baubles — A personalised oak bauble with both names and the anniversary year makes a keepsake couples can put on the Christmas tree every year.

At Cherry Grove Craft, we offer a wide range of personalised wooden anniversary gifts that are made to order in our workshop in North Wales.
