In our wedding inspiration section, I think we’ve covered any possible aspect of the wedding world. However, another small but important detail that can be added to the list of wedding accessories is the wedding-themed custom jewellery box.

Below are ten creative ideas for wedding custom jewelry boxes that will make your special day even more special.
1. Engraved Love Quotes
It is also possible to engrave some meaningful love quotes on the jewelry box, making it a never-ending gift.
Details: A special item is a jewelry box with a message, a line from the love note, or even the wedding vows.

This makes the box distinctly beautiful and turns it into a precious memento of the couple’s wedding day.
Examples:
- Who is this that appears like the dawn, beautiful as the moon, bright as the sun, royal as the stars?”
- ”You will always be my forever. ”
- “To have and to hold, from this day forward. ”
2. Photograph Inlays
Use photographs in the design to tell a story.
Details: Proposals, engagements, and even childhood pictures can be incorporated into the jewelry boxes as photographs are placed in a beautiful design on the box. These photos can be printed on the lid or inside the box, thus providing the guests with a sort of timeline of the couple’s relationship.
Techniques
