Quick answer: a personalised wall art print — a custom star map of the night you met, a couple name print, or a “first home” print — makes a gift that stays on the wall for years. Choose by occasion: star maps for anniversaries, name prints for weddings, home prints for housewarmings and name prints for new babies.
Most gifts are used up or put away. A personalised print gets hung where the couple or family sees it every day. Here are personalised gift ideas by occasion, with what to write and how to order.
Personalised anniversary gift ideas
A custom star map of the night you met
A star map shows the sky exactly as it was on a date and place that matters — the night you met, got engaged or got married. It’s romantic without being cheesy, and it suits a bedroom wall. See The Night We Met — Custom Star Map.
What to write: your names, the date, the city, and a short line such as “The night it all began”.
A couple name print
Two names and a date in clean typography — simple, elegant, and easy to place in any room. See Our Names — Couple Print.
Personalised wedding gift ideas
For weddings, pick something the couple can hang in their new home. A couple name print with the wedding date works for close friends and family; a black-and-gold family name print works for the couple starting their own family name on the wall.
Personalised housewarming gift ideas
A first home print with the family’s name, the city and the year they moved in turns a new address into a memory. It’s one of the few housewarming gifts that doesn’t duplicate what someone else brings.
Gifts for new parents
A nursery name print with the baby’s name and date of birth is a keepsake parents keep long after the baby clothes are outgrown.
How personalised prints work at ModernWallArt.in
- Choose the print and size — framed (black or white) or canvas.
- Fill in the details on the product page — names, date, place or message.
- Approve a preview — we send it to you before printing, so spellings and dates are right.
- We print and ship — made to order in India, free shipping across India.
Because every piece is made to order, plan ahead for dates like anniversaries and Diwali — order at least 10–12 days before you need it.
Tips for writing the perfect text
- Keep it short: names, a date and one short line look better than a paragraph.
- Double-check spellings — especially names with more than one spelling.
- Use the format they use: “Priya & Arjun” vs “Arjun & Priya” matters to some couples.
- Add a place — a city or even a café name makes it feel specific.

Frequently asked questions
What is a good personalised anniversary gift?
A custom star map showing the sky on the night you met or married is one of the most meaningful anniversary gifts. A couple name print with your wedding date is a simpler, elegant alternative. Both are framed or canvas and hang in a bedroom or living room.
What details do I need for a custom star map?
You need the date, the city or place, and the names or message you want printed. The time of night is optional. Keep the message short — one line such as “The night it all began” looks best on the print.
Will I see the design before it is printed?
Yes. After you order a personalised print, we send a preview of your design for approval before printing. You can check names, dates and spellings, and we print only after you confirm.
How long does a personalised print take to arrive?
Each personalised print is made to order. Allow time for the preview and your approval, then 2–4 working days to print and dispatch, and 3–7 days for delivery in most of India. Order 10–12 days ahead for a specific occasion.
Is a personalised print a good housewarming gift?
Yes. A “first home” print with the family name, the city and the year they moved in is personal, doesn’t duplicate other gifts, and becomes part of the new home. It suits living rooms and entryways.
