“We bought a gift for our daughter and her husband's 25th wedding anniversary. It arrived a couple of days late, but this was over the Queen's Platinum Jubilee, so I guess that was understandable. It arrived very well packed and nicely gift-wrapped. They were very pleased with the gift.”
“I had some problems with ordering on the website so I contacted The Gift Experience by email. I received a very quick response with some suggestions. I tried what they said but it still didn't work so I contacted them again. Once again I received a very quick response with some more suggestions and an offer to take my order by telephone instead. I tried their further suggestion, which worked a treat and my order was pla Ed. I received my personalised item very soon afterwards despite a Bank Holiday weekend.”
Thanks for your review, I am sorry to read that delivery took a little longer than estimated and it caused the gifts to be late for the event.
Unfortunately, there can be unforeseen delays in the Royal Mail network which we have no control over, I know how frustrating it is to be waiting on a delivery and I can only apologise once again for any upset or inconvenience caused.
“Quick delivery with gift protected and packaged well. Reslly happy wth the quality of the birdbox and the personalised message made it the perfect gift.”
“I purchased a pair of Golden Wedding Anniversary mugs recently, with the date of the anniversary on the mugs. The mugs were gifts for family members which, sadly, we didn't receive until after the anniversary date. Very disappointing and obviously we won't be using The Gift Experience again.”

“I ordered a book "Remember When" as a gift for our friend's Golden Wedding Anniversary and was really disappointed. The text on the presentation plate attached to the front page of the book hadn't been centred and it looked awful when you opened the book. It hit me straight away and as centring text in this day and age is easy it is not what I expected; for the money, I expected much better and this ruined the gift. Also, the gift box is over-rated. It is a plain black box with gold writing on the front and unlike a picture I had seen (and I can’t now find where) was not gold lined. I don't think it adds to the gift although does offer a degree of protection to the book when in transit. TGE issued a new plaque as soon as I notified them but I have had to send the replacement to my friends so they can take out the original plaque and replace it with the new one. Takes the edge off the gift.”
Hi Pauline
Thanks for your review, I am sorry to read of the issues but I am really glad our team were able to help you out with getting a replacement sorted.
With regards to the gift box, this is not gold lined and is not advertised as being anywhere on our product listings.
“I am more than happy with the gift I bought for my husband. I have framed the certificate and will be planting the seeds this coming weekend. The instructions are easy to follow and I look forward to the outcome.
I would definitely order from here again and have recommended them to a friend.”
“Great company. Many varied gift ideas, They appeared to be very well run,with staff quick to reply to queries and changes requested sorted immediately
Would recommend.”
“Ordered 2 itemised, one of which was a personal inscribed vase for my wife’s 60 th birthday , I was sent an e mail copy of the order when I realised the wording was incorrect, I then tried to ring to discuss this but there was an answer machine message advising me to e mail the query instead to which I had no reply so I re e mailed the following day , again no reply , now nearly 2 weeks later when I’ve been delivered the vase with the incorrect wording you want a good review !”
