very nice pens and I am sure the couple getting married will love them however i do agree with tony that t look a little sqeezy in that box and i think would look even better in one of the burl type boxes if you decided to go that way ? any they look great just the way they are.

Very nice.

Its funny you should mention the burl type boxes because that was the first box that i tried and your right it didnt look so cramped but it didnt look as wedding-ie.

well spankingpigeon i have attached a pic of an example that you may or may not find usefull for another time and by doing it like this there is no doubt whats in the box and what there were for. i think engraving the pens as well make it more personel and anyone who see's them in the years to come knows what they are for and it's a good discussion point.Laser engraved wedding pen box.jpgWedding Pen Set.JPG

The Box is one of the earlier types available from timberbits but scratched really easy and he decided to get the newer burl type satin box. I just find that that it sets it all right off in the bigger box and engraved for that special day.
Cheers Ian
