Wedding season is upon us here at Northern Crescent Iron. From April to October, our team of blacksmiths are busy forging and refining groomsmen gifts of handmade iron for couples and their wedding party.
We love this time of year because there are so many beautiful, personalized wedding presents and groomsmen gift sets that we have the joy of sending out to people around the world. It is truly an honor to play a part in such a big and important day.
Instead of the commercial store wedding registry, we suggest getting a little creative with your wedding gifts for friends and family this year by selecting an iron work that will last long after the couple’s special day.
For The Happy Couple
Select an artisan railroad spike knife and a detailed wrought iron bottle opener. Have them engraved with the wedding date or other special personal message and present them to the bride and groom as a gift set for their new life together.
For Groomsmen Gifts
A gift set of personalized railroad spike knives, bottle openers, or a mix-and-match set of both will surprise your group of best men. Give them a cool gift they’ll love. This is a perfect solution if you have several groomsmen. But if you have a smaller wedding party, you can still create a gift set for the best man, ushers, keep one for yourself, or even get your new bride a gift (yes, we have styles she’ll love too!).
For Bridesmaids Gifts
Do you have down to earth friends who aren’t really the frilly type? A gift set of personalized, engraved iron bottle openers is a fun gift with elegance and strength. Or maybe an iron knife with a beautiful brass accent on the handle or fun pair of iron dice better suits your group. Available in a variety of styles, you can mix and match your gifts to reflect each woman’s personal style. Surprise your bridesmaids at the bridal shower, bachelorette party, or at the reception and say “thank you for standing by me”. Give a gift as solid and strong as your friendship that will last for years.
For The Father of the Bride
A specially engraved hand forged knife with a locally-made leather knife sheath or a matching display stand is a thoughtful gift that will last for years. Have his initials or the date stamped on the handle. Present this to the father of the bride before the ceremony to show him how much you appreciate him.
For Wedding Favors
For a smaller, more intimate affair, a gift set of personalized unique bottle openers or railroad spike knives are sure to please everyone in the wedding party. A pair of our wrought iron dice are also a fun favorite for that extra-special gift everyone can appreciate and enjoy. Try a set of 6 for a really unique set of gaming dice. Yahtzee has never been more fun!
Last Minute Wedding Gift
We all lead busy lives and procrastinate from time to time. Need a last minute wedding gift, groomsmen gifts, or gift for the groom himself? We can ship any item quickly and efficiently. Let us know your deadline and we’ll do all we can. Not in a rush? You’ll enjoy peace of mind by purchasing engraved hand-forged items at least two or three weeks before the wedding during our busy season.
