It’s the question everyone asks as the confirmation season approaches. Every year, around 30,000 Swedish teenagers choose to be confirmed, and maybe you’ve been invited to a confirmation this year. Perhaps you’ve never been to a confirmation before, or you simply don’t know what to buy for a confirmand—then just keep reading.
As mentioned, jewellery is a very popular confirmation gift and the best part is that there are plenty of options to suit different styles and personalities, and you can never have too much jewellery. So you don’t need to worry if other guests choose jewellery too because it’s always appreciated. Layering jewellery is also very on-trend.
Just because it’s a confirmation doesn’t mean everything has to include a cross. If you’d rather give jewellery without a cross, that works just as well and can still symbolise the confirmation day just as much.
A personal confirmation gift is extra fun to give and to receive. Engraved jewellery is a perfect personal gift, where you can choose a text or symbol that represents the confirmation day, your relationship, or simply the confirmand’s personality. The engraving options are many and you decide what’s engraved, making the gift unique. Quite simply a gift that will end up high on the confirmand’s list.
Giving a watch as a confirmation gift is a timeless and classic gesture. A watch isn’t just a stylish and useful accessory—it can also symbolise taking charge of your own time and your own future. When choosing a watch for a confirmand, it’s worth considering what he’s like as a person. Would he suit a dress watch with a leather strap, or a sportier steel watch?
It can be difficult to decide how much money to spend on a confirmation gift. Of course, that depends on how close you are to the confirmand, but the most important thing isn’t the price. What matters is that you’ve chosen the gift with care, and picked something you truly believe the confirmand will like or suit.
