Wonderful team to work with! Had three specialty projects for my dad's 70th birthday, my parents 50th anniversary, and my friend's 40th birthday this year and everything turned out amazing. The work is fast and professional and my family loved everything that was done. You will NOT find a better place find personalized gifts at these prices! Thank you so much Bluegrass for everything!

I had a special gift that i wanted to have engraved. Because of the shape and type metal, I had to rethink how i wanted it displayed. Jenny was very helpful and came up with a great idea that will be a keepsake present for the recipient. Very personal service and will definitely be back!

I am thrilled to have discovered Bluegrass Awards! I had bought a lovely 50th anniversary gift for a dear friend and needed it engraved and ready by the next day. The Browns were able to make it happen and I will be forever grateful. They even sent me a proof to approve before engraving it! I am sure that I will be returning many times. Their work is excellent!
