A Wedding Ceremony box, something I was not aware existed until I was asked to make this as a wedding gift. During the ceremony, the bride and groom place two glasses, a bottle of wine, and two letters in the box. The top is secured any number of ways, and it opened at a some predetermined time, 1, 5, 10 years and so on.
The glasses and bottle rest in support cradles designed specifically to fit each. The cradles are lined with thin craft foam.
Top is secured with a brass ball on each corner.
This box is constructed from reclaimed oak estimated to be over 100 years old. A coat of General Finishes Shaker Maple and antique brown wax to highlight the grain. Inside the top are foam pads for the glasses and since the bottle will be stored upside down, a small block with foam to keep the bottle from tipping forward.
Size is approx. 12x15x6.
The vow renewal place has a full fitness center and many tennis courts with locker rooms. It is for members only, however, the hall is open to the public for events only on weekends.
