Bonny Bridal: Summer Wedding Inspiration - Soft, Pastel Color PaletteEngraving is a formal way to write words into almost any surface. This etching process dates back centuries, and it is still popular to this day. Not only can engraving be done on metals, woods and other hard surfaces, but it can be used to carve words into paper products, like wedding invitations. Since engraving requires advanced tools, people who wish to use this technique to decorate their wedding invitations will have to enlist the help of professionals. Whether you hire the engraver down the street or a professional from abroad, a properly engraved invitation will look gorgeous when properly done. The engraving is typically done with a copper plate, and heavy paper is used to ensure high quality. The engraving company may just send the plate to you as a token, since the plates are not reusable. There are many styles of printing out there, but engraving has stood the test of time.
