Frequently Asked Questions
We’ve got plenty of resources to help you get started.
The first step is putting together a brief. A brief tells us what you’re looking for in your award – this can include shape, size, colour or material. For help creating a brief, check out our brief template on the resources page, and take a look through our gallery pages and news stories to see what we’ve done before.
For information about budgeting, lead times, artwork and additional services, you’re in the right place. Our FAQ can give you an overview of the design and manufacturing process.
Because all of our awards are designed personally for our clients, each award is different, so therefore it is difficult for us to put prices on the website or give out prices over the phone. For this reason we offer a free design and quote service so that you can see exactly what you will be getting for your money. If you would like to take advantage of this service, please use our enquiry form.
At Gaudio we believe in offering as much support to our clients as possible, including additional services beyond the award. We can help promote your ceremony through our social media channels (news pages, blog, Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn), we can take regular pictures of the awards throughout production to keep your clients informed and to build up hype around the event. In addition, we offer a range of after sales services, including our reorder website to streamline the process of ordering replicas. For further information please contact our sales team.
Where possible, logos and artwork should be vectors (.pdf, .ai, .eps). This will ensure that your logos are printed or engraved in the best quality possible, and it allows our design team to alter and manipulate it.

When you order a blank trophy, it will arrive without any personalised details. The trophy is blank for you to add your own personalisation, or use as a decorative piece.
Select your layout using the dropdown menu, then enter your details. The live proof shows you an approximate visual of how your trophy will look when it’s engraved. Once you’ve added the details you want and purchased your trophy, we’ll begin manufacture right away.
Please note: The live render is an estimate of how your trophy will look, and the final result may vary in size, colour and placement.
With the Gaudio Proofing Service, simply add your chosen trophy to your cart and checkout as normal. A member of the team will be in touch to collect the required details, and we’ll send you proofs to approve before manufacture. Delivery time excludes proofing.
