Direct answer

Confirm the exact names, spelling and preferred form of address before authorising permanent personalisation.

Ask for a written proof and check it yourself rather than copying an unverified invitation or social profile. Avoid assuming a name change or a title the couple has not chosen. Confirm the seller's correction policy and delivery date before production begins. Personalised gifts can be difficult to alter or exchange, so obtaining quiet approval is more considerate than relying on a surprise that may contain an unwanted or incorrect inscription.
