Among the most important people in a couple’s life are their godparents; they are the only close friends we can choose to be our spiritual parents.

If you’re looking for a gift for your godparents – whether it’s their birthday, the festive season, you want to give them a present for their wedding anniversary, or you simply haven’t seen them for a long time and don’t want to turn up empty-handed – we’re here to help with some special and original gift ideas.

• For special occasions, whether it’s Christmas or Easter, or even when asking them to be godparents, we recommend the wooden box for two bottles, which can be personalised with an engraving featuring a special message for the godparents. You can place two bottles of wine in the wooden box, each with a personalised label bearing a special dedication to the godmother and godfather – a gift that is not only sure to be memorable but will also touch their hearts. We often hear that ‘the way to the heart is through the stomach’. If you know that the godparents make a great team in the kitchen, then these personalised embroidered aprons will add a touch of fun to their cooking of the most delicious recipes. Whether you choose individual designs or matching pairs, they’ll take pride of place in the kitchen of your most cherished godparents.

• For those with a passion for cooking, we also have a few essential kitchen utensils. You can personalise juicers, choppers, spoons and forks with names or a catchy message.

• They say that the finest spirits come in small bottles. Pocket-sized bottles make a perfect gift for godfathers, being a premium, strictly masculine gift that adds an elegant touch to the present. For godfathers who are passionate about travel, we have a scratch-off world map. A gift to hang on a hook and tick off as many destinations as possible.

• To manage to tick off as many countries as possible, an itinerary needs to be planned very carefully. You could give a personalised notebook where they can set out all their holiday plans and more, and alongside this you could also give a personalised bookmark with a heartfelt message.

• If you’ve spotted an empty corner in the godparents’ home, you could give them a moon lamp or a globe as a gift – a unique decorative item and a memorable present for godparents.

• For godparents who you know enjoy fine wines, you could give them a special set of luxury decanters in the shape of a globe or a diamond – a premium gift that is sure to be greatly appreciated.

• If our gift suggestions have caught your eye, we recommend creating a truly personalised gift by choosing your own wrapping paper. Gift-wrapping can be a true art form, and we have everything you need, including the most unique designs for personalised gift-wrapping paper.
