Parties will never be the same when you and your friends raise the personalized glass of your favorite liqueur. Add a nickname or a short message and this shot glass becomes a truly personal gift. It makes a great gift for all the guys and gals in your wedding party as well.
Surprise your guests at the next party you hold by giving them their own commemorative shot glass to take home. Have the name and date of your celebration engraved on the glass and hand them to everyone in attendance. Fill them with candies, treats, or leave them empty and let your friends pick their drink of choice. Either way, these glasses are sure to be a hit with everyone at your party.
This shot glass also makes a wonderful gift for new homeowners or that guy who finally finished his man cave. Add our Engraved Bachelor Cocktail Shaker or Engraved Silver Round Bottle Stopper, and he will have a beverage set sure to please all the guys. Get several of these unique shot glasses and have them engraved with the name of his favorite teams or sports stars.
Every glass is engraved in-house by HansonEllis, which has been personalizing gifts since 1999. At 2-1/4" tall and 1-7/8" wide this is a true bar-cart shot glass, and the engraving takes up to four lines of ten characters, which is room for a name and a date, a bar nickname, or a one-line toast that gets read out loud before the first round.
Shoppers tell us it lands. One customer has ordered engraved shot glasses twice for a girls' weekend and said the engraving was beautiful and her friends were thrilled to see their own name and the date of the event on their glass. Another ordered four as birthday gifts, called them beautifully monogrammed, and had them in hand a couple of days after ordering. A third sent a batch to family overseas and reported that even the hardest names came out perfectly.

Which one should I choose
Shoppers usually weigh the Engraved Shot Glass against the other engraved barware named on this page, or against a plain glass with nothing on it.
| Engraved Shot Glass | Choose it when you want one keepsake per person, with a different name or nickname on each, at a size guests will happily carry home. |
|---|---|
| Engraved Bachelor Cocktail Shaker | Choose it when you want a single centerpiece gift for one person rather than a glass for every guest; it pairs with the shot glasses as a set. |
| Engraved Silver Round Bottle Stopper | Choose it when the gift should live in a wine rack instead of on a bar cart, or to round out a beverage set for the same recipient. |
| A plain, unengraved shot glass | Choose it only as everyday barware; it carries no name, no date and no reason to keep it after the party. |
For a party where every guest should leave with something of their own, the Engraved Shot Glass is the pick, with the shaker or bottle stopper added when one person deserves a bigger gift.
