Marriage Boxes

My wife, Rev. Dr. Rhonda Schienle, performs weddings and other services in our area of northwest Indiana. There is a beautiful poem called "The Marriage Box" that is often requested as part of her ceremonies. It talks about the foundation to a marriage and that couples must put something in before they can take anything out of the box. Rhonda asked me about making a box that could bring this poem into a keepsake memory for her couples. I was more than happy to oblige.

During the Unity portion of the ceremony, couples will then put in their vows, poems, letters and other sentiments from their special day. The Marriage Box has become one of Rhonda's most popular requests. These make wonderful anniversary gifts or gifts from parents to their children.

The top portion has the couple's names, wedding date and a CNC-carved set of wedding rings. An additional option is adding a spacial phrase, scripture or children's names to the underside of the lid.

While many products are targeted to specific occasions and seasons, we will gladly make any product at any time. Shipping rates via USPS Priority are shown for each product.
