    Frequently Asked Questions

    Do you have anniversary gifts for a specific year?

    Yes. We have collections built for the big milestones, including 1 Year, 5 Year, 10 Year, and 25th anniversary gifts, and you can match the traditional theme for that year if you like. Browse the year that fits, or pick any personalized keepsake from this page since a meaningful gift works for any anniversary.

    How do I personalize an anniversary gift?

    Add your details right on the product page. Depending on the gift you can add your names, your wedding or first-date, a photo, or even your song. Pieces like the Personalized Spotify Song Light Box and the Where It All Began Couple's Map are built around those personal details, and personalization is free on every order.

    Can I make a gift from our song, our date, or where we met?

    Yes, and those are some of our most-loved gifts. The Personalized Spotify Song Light Box turns your song into a glowing keepsake, the Personalized Night Sky Plaque recreates the stars from your date, and the Where It All Began Couple's Map marks the exact place your story started.

    What is a good first anniversary gift versus a milestone like 25 years?

    For a first anniversary, a sentimental keepsake like the Forever Love Puzzle Keepsake or the Star Map Plaque is perfect and fits the paper-year tradition. For a big milestone like 25 years, lean into something that feels like a celebration, such as the Anniversary Love Knot Gift Set or The Infinite Love Story Necklace.

    Is personalization/engraving really free?

    Yes! Every item includes free personalization. Just enter your details on the product page and we'll customize it before shipping.

    How long does shipping take?

    Many products ship within 1-2 business days from our facility in Monroe, CT and typically arrive within a few business days depending on your location. Some products can take longer in production, so for the most accurate shipping time on this item, see the estimate displayed beneath the add to cart button. Expedited shipping options are also available at checkout.

    What is your return policy?

    Because every item is custom-made and personalized just for you, we cannot accept returns on personalized items. However, if your item arrives damaged or with an error we made, we will replace it at no cost. Just reach out to us at support@groovygirlgifts.com, or via live chat during our business hours, and provide your order number and a photo and we'll take care of it.

    Can I cancel or change my order?

    Reach out to us as soon as possible at support@groovygirlgifts.com, or via live chat during our business hours. Once an order is placed and paid for we cannot guarantee any changes, but we will do our best to accommodate updates to personalization details, shipping address, or product selection before production begins. Once production starts, changes are not possible.

    From design to delivery, our skilled production team at Groovy Girl Gifts works tirelessly behind the scenes to craft personalized gifts that create lasting memories.

    Best Gift Ever

    My wife absolutely loved it. Just celebrated our 44th Anniversary. We met 8 years earlier on a day I’ll never forget. The map and presentation are fabulous. And it lights up! If you have a first meet date you’ll never forget, this is a great remembrance. You’re other will be thrilled and touched.

    Excellent customer service

    I made a mistake on my order and didn’t notice until after it arrived. Groovy Girls worked to correct it for a minimal charge.
