Where to Use It

Choose the seal around the stationery

Placement changes how much detail the seal needs and how prominently the design will be seen.

✉

Envelope Flaps

A classic placement for invitations and save-the-dates. Compact designs usually work best.

▤

Invitation Suites

Use a seal on vellum wraps, belly bands, ribbon, or layered paper details.

✦

Wedding Favors

Add a small seal to favor boxes, bags, tags, or gift wrapping.

⌑

Day-of Stationery

Menus, place cards, folders, and welcome materials can repeat the same visual motif.

Artwork Rules

What engraves clearly — and what may need simplifying

Decorative wedding artwork often contains fine detail, so simplifying the smallest elements can improve the finished impression.

Works well

✓
Clear outlines Use shapes that remain visible when the artwork is reduced.
✓
Open floral detail Keep enough space between leaves, petals, and stems.
✓
Simple line drawings Venue and botanical artwork works best with controlled detail.
✓
Short text Dates and short names are easier to preserve than long wording.

Usually needs simplification

×
Very thin botanical lines Delicate stems and hairline details may disappear at small sizes.
×
Dense floral clusters Too many overlapping details can merge in the finished seal.
×
Tiny wording Small text may become difficult to read after engraving.
×
Photo-style artwork Shading and continuous-tone effects usually need conversion to line artwork.
