Which personalised mugs suit a couple at Christmas?
Personalised mugs suit a couple at Christmas best when each mug carries a name or a shared message. These four picks include a Me To You couples set, two anniversary sets and a Mr Right and Mrs Always Right pair. Each one gives the couple something to share over a cup.
Personalised Me To You Christmas Couples Mug Set (£18.99)
A charming pick for the couple: two ceramic mugs, each with a Me To You bear and heart shaped candy canes. Each mug carries its own name, and the fixed words With Love At Christmas tie the pair together. Text prints in upper case, so the names stand out. Hand washing is recommended to keep the print looking its best. Two mugs mean each of you gets a cup with your name on it, a sweet way to start Christmas morning.
Best for: Newlyweds and best friends.
Personalised 25th Silver Anniversary Mug Set (£15.99)
An easy win for an anniversary: two ceramic mugs with the same message on both. The fixed text reads 25th Silver Anniversary, with two short lines on the front and up to four on the back for your own words. Check the spelling carefully, because the message is made with the words you type. Block capitals are best avoided. It is a thoughtful way to mark a silver anniversary, and each of you gets a mug to keep.
Best for: Silver anniversary couples.
Personalised 40th Ruby Anniversary Mug Set (£15.99)
This pair of ceramic mugs gives you room to say something personal. The fixed text 40th Ruby Anniversary sits on both mugs, with two front lines and four back lines of your own words. The same message appears on each mug, so you both read the same thing. Block capitals are best avoided, and the spelling is yours to check. A ruby anniversary is a lovely excuse to toast a milestone together.
Best for: Ruby anniversary celebrations.
Personalised Mr Right and Mrs Always Right Mugs (£15.99)
A playful pick for the couple: a pair of ceramic mugs, one carrying Mr RIGHT and the other Mrs always RIGHT. Each mug has its own name, and the same four-line message runs on the back of both. You add the names and message, so check the spelling before you order. Hand washing keeps the print looking its best. It is a cheeky pair that makes the couple laugh over their morning tea.
Best for: Newlyweds and new homes.

Keepsakes with names and short messages suit a couple at Christmas when they mark a moment you both care about, such as an engagement, a wedding or a first Christmas together. Toasting flutes, a proposal ring box and a candle each carry personal wording and are made to order.
Personalised Celebration Heart Pair of Flutes (£42.49)
A charming pick for the couple who love a toast. These glasses are hand blown, hand cut and hand polished. Hand blown glass can show slight irregularities. Add two names and four short lines, and the same lines appear on both flutes. They come in a silk lined box. Lovely for an engagement, a wedding or an anniversary, when you want to raise a glass together.
Best for: Engagements, weddings and anniversaries.
Personalised Will You Marry Me Ring Box (£16.99)
A great gift idea for the couple, whether one is planning a proposal or celebrating one. The words 'Will you marry me' are already printed on this ring box. You add a name, which prints in capitals, so it feels personal from the start. It measures 4.5 x 4.5 x 2 cm, a small keepsake for an engagement or the moment a question is asked.
Best for: Couples planning a proposal.
Personalised First Christmas LED Candle (£13.99)
Simple, useful and well made, this LED candle suits newlyweds in their first Christmas together. It has a flame effect and is coated in real wax. Add a line of text in capitals, a surname and a date, with 'First Christmas' already printed. It takes 3 x AAA batteries, which are not included, so pop some in before you give it.
Best for: Newlyweds' first Christmas together.

Which personalised baubles work best as tree decorations?
The best personalised baubles for a tree are the ones that come ready to hang and have room for names or a short message. All three here do. Each one suits a different way of marking a couple's Christmas, from a single name to a few warm lines.
Personalised Boofle Christmas Reindeer Bauble (£10.99)
Our pick for a name-first gift. The reindeer bauble puts a name on the front in capitals, then has four lines on the back for a short message that appears exactly as you type it. It comes with its ribbon, so it's ready to hang straight away. A good fit for a partner or close friend, and a name they'll see every December.
Best for: Partners and close friends.
Personalised Christmas Deer Glass Bauble (£11.99)
A gift for quiet moments. The glass bauble has a reindeer design and three lines of text, which appear as you type them, so you can keep your own wording and capitals. It comes ready to hang, so it's easy to add to the tree. A good pick for a couple who enjoy slow evenings at home, or for friends and family who love to decorate.
Best for: Cosy evenings at home.
Personalised Christmas Glass Bauble (£11.99)
Made to be noticed. This five-line glass bauble gives you the most room to say something meaningful. Lines one, three and five appear in fixed capitals, and the others appear as you type them. It's glass and comes ready to hang. It suits a couple who want a few warm words to mark their Christmas, or family and friends who love a tree with a story.
Best for: Couples who want more words.



Which personalised Christmas stockings are fun to give?
Our personalised Christmas stockings are fun to give when you want a name on the stocking itself. Each one is velvet, with a plush white cuff and a hoop for hanging, and all three styles take a name of up to 12 characters.
Personalised Holly Christmas Stocking (£13.99)
Simple, useful and well made, this Holly stocking comes in grey or red velvet, so you can pick the shade that suits their home. The name is printed as you enter it, up to 12 characters, and the soft plush white cuff gives it a finished look. A hoop on top makes it easy to hang. It suits a partner's first Christmas together, or a family who want a name on every stocking.
Best for: Couples wanting a classic look.
Personalised Initial Reindeer Christmas Stocking (£13.99)
Our pick for a couple who enjoy a bit of personality, this reindeer stocking pairs one initial with a name of up to 12 characters. Both appear exactly as you enter them. It's made from velvet with a plush white cuff and measures 28 x 50 x 3.5 cm, with a hoop on top for hanging. It's a sweet way to show you thought about the two of them, with a playful design they'll enjoy.
Best for: Playful gifts for two.
Personalised Leopard Print Christmas Stocking (£13.99)
A cosy treat for winter evenings, this leopard print stocking brings a bold look to the hearth. The velvet is printed with leopard spots, and the name is set in a script font, up to 12 characters. Try to avoid all capitals, as they can be hard to read in script. It has the same plush white cuff and hanging hoop, and what makes it stand out is that leopard print velvet.
Best for: Bold style, cosy nights.

How does personalising work?
- Type your words on the gift's page: a name, a date or a short message. Each box shows its character limit as you type, and a tag above the boxes shows your exact words before you add the gift to your basket.
- A UK maker personalises it to order, printing or engraving exactly what you typed. Please check spelling, capitals and dates: we print the words as they are.
- It's sent by tracked delivery, to you or straight to them.
We can't print accents, emoji or most symbols, so the boxes accept letters, numbers and simple punctuation. If a personalised gift arrives damaged, faulty or not as you typed it, we remake it or refund it in full (returns).
When should I order for Christmas?
Most personalised gifts take 1 to 5 working days to make (a few take 7 to 10; each product page shows its own time), then 1 to 2 working days by Royal Mail Tracked 24, so order early for Christmas. Every product page shows when to expect your gift before you pay.
Personalised gifts travel as their own tracked parcel, for £7.95, and over £60 of gifts we pay the first £6 of delivery. To send a gift straight to them, give their address at checkout and add a free e-card with your message. Our delivery page has every making time and price in one place.
Ready to choose?
Choose a personalised gift that says you thought about them: mugs and flutes for couples and newlyweds, candles and baubles for a cosy Christmas at home. Pick your favourite above, type their name or your message, and we'll make it and send it straight to them, with a free e-card if you like.
