3 truly unique Irish wedding gifts for 2019




If you have a family wedding coming up soon, you’re probably already thinking about finding the perfect gift.

These days, it’s common for guests at a wedding to simply put cash into a card instead of buying the happy couple a present. The newlyweds may be grateful given the enormous cost of getting married in Ireland, but family members and close friends often want to give a gift with a more personal touch.

Our Irish-made gifts are artfully designed and executed to give you a gift that is personalised and deeply meaningful; drawing together family history, as well as Irish tradition and culture. 

Here, we have highlighted some of our most popular and most unique Irish wedding gifts.

Irish Family Crest Slate

The Irish Family Crest slate is a one-of-a-kind gift. It is designed to a superb standard of quality to hang proudly on the wall for years to come, before it is handed down to the next generation. The slate is framed with black wood, combining the ancestral theme of the gift with a sleek, modern aesthetic.

Each feature - the family coats of arms, the traditional font, the Irish blessing - can be personalised, and adds a beautiful touch for a truly Irish wedding gift. You can add details of the wedding day including the date and location of the ceremony for a personalised wedding present that will last a lifetime.

What our customers say: “Absolutely thrilled with the product and service. I cannot speak highly enough of this. The process was so easy and the plaque was delivered very quickly and displayed beautifully. The gift exceeded my expectations and was gratefully received.” Emma in Waterford.

Wooden Wedding Clock


The Wooden Wedding Clock is a stunning piece that is designed and created here in Ireland using a beautiful piece of native wood. If you’re looking for a personalised Irish wedding gift that speaks to our heritage, this is an excellent choice.

Engraved with intertwined rings bearing the couple’s names, the clock also includes an Irish blessing, sentiment or message. Our most commonly chosen message is ‘Grá, Dílseacht, Cairdeas", which translates to "Love, Loyalty, Friendship", and we can help you choose if you would like something different.

What our customers say: "This clock exceeded my expectations and the customer service is great. Stephen was careful to make sure the clock layout was correct before the order was finalised. Quick delivery. I am sure the bride and groom will be just as thrilled with the clock as I am" Jane in London. Read more reviews here.


Bog Wood Plaque

Our Bog Wood Plaque is a gift that truly stands the test of time; created using bog wood that has been aged over thousands of years, this gift is a personalised piece of history. The family crests of the newly married couple are engraved on to the piece of Bog Oak or Bog yew, for an eye-catching, rustic addition to any home.

Bog Wood is sourced from bog lands in Longford, Westmeath, Roscommon and Offaly. Modern practices like road building, construction and demands for fuel have all been cutting away at the bog lands for many years, which has exposed this rich artist’s treasure. Bog Wood is a rare resource which is unique both in colour and feel.

What our customers say: “I was amazed at the fast service and the product exceeded what I had anticipated. It is just fabulous. The bearer of this beautiful gift cannot stop talking about it!” Clare in Kilrush. Read more reviews here.

As well as being perfect Irish wedding presents, these gifts can also be bought as thoughtful gifts marking a big anniversary for parents or grandparents.
