Things Remembered Celebrates Brides' New Last Names With Ongoing "Future Mrs. ___" Giveaway Program

CLEVELAND, OH--(Marketwired - May 8, 2013) - One of the biggest changes in a new bride's life will be her name, and Things Remembered has created an event to congratulate brides to-be across the nation. The leading retailer of personalized gifts will celebrate this name- and life-changing milestone with its "Future Mrs. ___" promotion May 18-19.

Any future bride can visit her nearest Things Remembered store and show her Facebook status as "engaged," to receive a customized keepsake key chain tag, commemorating her first gift with her new name.

To add to the excitement, future brides can even engrave the gifts in their own handwriting. With Things Remembered's iEngrave technology, a bride-to-be can practice writing her new last name and have that signature engraved for an even more special memento. Available in more than 200 stores nationwide, this unique offering allows anyone to capture a handwritten memory forever.

"I have been practicing my new signature for months, and this was a perfect way to capture this special time in my life forever," said one bride-to-be. "The iEngrave program brought me back to doodling on my notebook in grade school -- but engraving my new name made it even more real!"

"There is so much associated with a last name, and we want to congratulate brides-to-be on their new last names this wedding season," said Amy Myers, Vice President of Creative Services at Things Remembered. "The greatest aspect of any gift from Things Remembered is personalization, and we thought this was a great way to help introduce new brides-to-be to their new lives. And with iEngrave, she'll be able to remember the excitement of her new signature for years to come."

Engaged shoppers can visit any store location during active promotion weekends to choose their key chain tags and browse hundreds of customizable wedding gifts. Brides-to-be will also enjoy special offers, including customized wedding logos with any $100 purchase, and double rewards points with any flute set purchase. Engraving experts will be on hand at every location to help future brides find the perfect way to commemorate their big days.
