Customization and logo options
Engraving on glass is a decoration method, not a separate product line. In practice you choose a blank from our catalog and tell us what goes on it: a monogram, a date, a short phrase or a small crest. We work from vector artwork; low-resolution JPEGs do not engrave cleanly, so send AI, EPS or SVG where possible.
What we can quote against: -> Crystal for Glass 150ML ultra-thin glasses, $0.95 each at 48 pcs MOQ — the thinnest option we carry and the most fragile in transit, so packing matters -> Custom logo transparent whiskey shot glasses, 280–310ml, $0.65 each at 50 pcs MOQ — the workhorse for favors and table settings -> The same 280–310ml shot glass in the father/birthday/anniversary variant, also $0.65 at 50 pcs
We do not claim laser engraving on every blank. On thin crystal, sandblasting or a printed etch is often the safer route; we will tell you which method suits the glass rather than promise a finish the material cannot take. Confirm the method before you approve a sample.
Pricing and minimum order quantities
Prices here are unit prices at MOQ, not at volume, and they move with quantity, decoration and packing. The 150ML crystal set starts at $0.95 per piece at 48 pieces. The 280–310ml shot glasses start at $0.65 at 50 pieces. Those are realistic starting points for a small wedding order of a few hundred pieces; a 2,000-piece run will quote lower, but we will not publish a number we have not confirmed against your artwork.
Three costs sit outside the unit price and buyers routinely forget them: -> Engraving setup — a one-time plate or file charge per design, not per glass -> Individual gift boxes — a plain bulk carton is cheapest; printed boxes add cost and lead time -> Freight — glass is heavy and volumetric, so sea freight suits large orders and air suits samples only
Ask for a landed-cost quote, not an FOB number, before you compare suppliers. A cheaper unit price with poor packing produces breakage that erases the saving.
Practical buying notes for wedding orders
Wedding timelines are fixed and unforgiving, so work backwards from the date. Production plus sea freight from China to Europe or the US typically runs several weeks; samples alone can take one to two weeks including courier time. Place the order with buffer, not on the edge.
Things worth settling early: -> Order a physical sample with your actual engraving before bulk production -> Decide whether glasses ship individually boxed or in bulk cartons — it changes packing cost and breakage risk -> Confirm the exact glass capacity you want; 280–310ml suits wine service, 150ml suits tasting portions -> Ask for photos of the packed carton, not just the product

Frequently asked questions
What is the minimum order for engraved wine glasses for a wedding?
Our lowest MOQ on the relevant blanks is 48 pieces for the 150ML crystal glasses at $0.95 each, or 50 pieces for the 280–310ml shot glasses at $0.65 each. Engraving setup is charged once per design regardless of quantity.
Can you engrave our names and wedding date on each glass?
Yes, provided you supply vector artwork and approve a sample first. We will recommend sandblasting or a printed etch where laser engraving would be unsuitable, such as on ultra-thin crystal.
How long does a wedding order take?
Samples typically take one to two weeks including courier. Bulk production plus sea freight runs several weeks depending on quantity and decoration, so order with a buffer before your date rather than cutting it close.
