Bunnies Mark

Bunnies Mark is based in Durham, North Carolina, and serves couples in surrounding states. It makes uniquely crafted engraved gifts, combining calligraphy and design so that each piece reflects your story.

LGBTQ+ couples

Bunnies Mark is LGBTQ+-owned. The maker first took up engraving to give a partner a long-wanted bottle of perfume, with her name engraved on it, and that personal origin shows in a business built around custom, meaningful objects. For you, it is a chance to buy keepsakes that carry your own names, dates and words.

Where engraving fits in a wedding

Engraved items work for several parts of the celebration. Think about:

• Favors for guests, with a short message or initials
• Gifts for your wedding party, personalized for each person
• Keepsakes for parents or grandparents
• A present for your partner on the morning of the wedding
• Anniversary gifts that mark your date

Because the service pairs calligraphy with design, you have room to choose the lettering style and layout.

Ordering well

Custom engraving takes time, and a missed spelling cannot be undone. Ask for a proof of the wording before work begins, and check every name and date twice.

Confirm the lead time, the minimum order, and how items are packaged and shipped. If you need pieces in hand before your rehearsal dinner, build in a buffer of several weeks. Ask what materials can be engraved and which sizes suit the text you have in mind.

Where they work

The business is in Durham and serves couples across the region and beyond. Reach out with your date, quantity and ideas, and ask about samples or photographs of previous pieces so that you can judge the style.
