Wedding Trend: Laser Cut Wedding Decorations!

Personalizing your wedding has gone high-tech with laser cut signs, backdrops, toppers and more! All right, maybe not as high-tech as the amazing 3D printing trend that we featured here. But this technique using a laser cutting machine can create free-standing “cut out” lettering, monograms, numbers and figures such as birds, hearts, even your state map out of a variety of materials. These lovely examples we’re featuring simulate the look of hand calligraphy, creating a graceful classic look or a playful whimsical effect. But you may also request for custom fonts, including your own handwriting!

7 Lovely Laser Cut Wedding Signs, Toppers and Backdrops

See what options are available using this cool technology. Definitely eye-catching accents for your wedding ceremony and reception, whatever the theme, season or venue.

1 – Backdrop – Talk about a stunning statement of love! Your favorite quote can be laser cut from wood in calligraphy-style lettering, then mounted on a wall of greenery and flowers.

2 – Centerpiece – Why not a giant wooden ampersand to create a unique centerpiece along with a simple candelabra? Matching bride and groom place setting cut-outs complete the set.

3 – Table number – Laser cut numbers (in words or numerals) mounted on dowels readily become part of gorgeous peony centerpieces.

4 – Cake topper – Made from cherry wood, this mini laser cut sign makes such a charming finishing touch for a simple flower-topped cake. Hooray indeed!

5 – Chair decorations – Gold laser cut signs, “You will forever” and “Be my always,” send such a romantic message contrasting with sleek, modern ghost chairs for the newlyweds.

6 – Place cards – Guests’ names laser cut in gold acrylic serve to mark their place settings, then can be taken home as cool wedding mementos.

7 – Couple sign – Whether your monogram or your full names, a customized sign like this can be ordered online then displayed wherever you wish at your wedding.
