Had the team at Aran help engrave a baseball bat for hitting a milestone is sales. They did such a wonderful job with it. They can engrave almost everything and are local which made things easier. Can’t wait to put it up on the wall of accomplishments. Thank you team Aran Trophies for all your help and professionalism. That was very quick.

I discovered Aran Awards online and went to them with an idea for a custom piece. Roxanne was amazing to work withβ€”very helpful and attentive throughout the process. They were quick, and the finished piece turned out beautifully. I’m extremely happy with the results! I would definitely recommend Aron Awards to anyone looking for quality laser engraving services.

I ordered custom shot glasses and told them exactly what I wanted and they made it happen. The process of choosing fonts and spacing was very easy and guided by the employee helping me. The turn around time was very reasonable. I recommend.

Lovely staff, worked with an urgent timeline (plaque for an urn) and reasonable prices. I would highly recommend them!
Used Aran Trophies last year for a friend golf tournament we do every year and wanted to add a trophy for the winner every year. They were amazing with their communication and just overall want to help pick the right fit for us. Now I’m working with them on a charity event I run and a few attendees from last year’s event have also reached out and have had amazing things to say! Wouldn’t recommend anyone else in Ontario over Aran Trophies!

My girlfriend absolutely loved it 10/10 experience . Thank you
