Horseshoes have long been seen as a symbol of luck and it’s not uncommon for a bride to carry a horseshoe down the aisle, so horseshoe wedding gifts have always been popular. There’s no other time that you want to wish someone you love more luck than when they embark on the next chapter of their life. Plus, any horseshoe gift looks great in a home with a country feel to it.
We’ve rounded up a selection of horseshoe-inspired gifts for every budget that will make perfect wedding presents – including some made from real horseshoes, some items to bring luck on the big day, and others to display at home. Don’t forget that horseshoes should always be held or displayed with the open end up, otherwise (as superstition tells us) all the good luck will fall out!
