Engraving:
Specify the text you want to be engraved within the border. For example “Sara (heart) Brad July 10, 2022” or “Mr. & Mrs. Avery Est. 7-10-22” Anything written in parenthesis will be considered a symbol or icon. Usually, the engraved text is in three separate lines of center-aligned text: The first names on the top line, the last name in the middle line (made larger), and the date on the last line of text. But that doesn’t mean you have to do this. We can engrave whatever you want in that space, in as few or as many lines of text as you want. There is plenty of space here for engraving. We always format it to look best.
