Making Your Wedding Uniquely Yours

Courtesy of Vogan Gold & Silver Works, Inc.

Engraving has long been a tradition with the most cherished of wedding memorabilia.
Until now, only wedding rings and cake servers have made the cut to receive this timely
and expensive treatment. Today, however, there have been huge advancements in
engraving technology. With lower costs and higher efficiency, this has led to a trend
in fully personalized weddings. From champagne bottles and flutes to wedding party
gifts and wedding knick-knacks, engraving is a wonderful way to make your special
day uniquely yours.

The Ceremony:

The ceremony is a dedication and symbol of your love, as should be all things in the
ceremony. Wedding ring engraving is a wonderful touch. An engraved message on
the inside of a wedding band can etch the memory of your special day on the symbol
of your love. Even an engraving as simple as your names and wedding date can ensure
the ring is forever yours. When doing non-traditional wedding services, such as grains
of sand ceremonies, engraving is sometimes vital. Vases or glass bowls holding the
sand can be engraved with vows or bible verses.

The Reception:

If given the option, put your names on EVERYTHING! Special touches, such as
personalized engraving on bridal party’s toasting glasses, or a basic engraving
on the cake server or place card holder can make a big impression, with a little price
tag. Take it one step further by gold foil engraving guest books, place cards, and photo
albums. A special touch can be an engraved bottle of champagne delivered to the hotel
room of out of town guests, with thanks. Even a champagne bottle with vows engraved
on the outside can provide a fabulous keepsake that will keep your friends and family
talking it up for years.

There are a variety of retailers offering these and many other engraving services. The
more quality of these vendors will offer “specialty� engraving, and in house
production. Be involved in the process by choosing font, wording, and design. Most
importantly, remember that what truly makes your wedding unique is you!
