Introduction
In this post, we help you create the Sip in Style: Personalized Wedding Wine Box Laser Cutting Project.
A stylish wooden wine box designed for special occasions. The box is adorned with a romantic engraving of a couple. Inside, a bottle of wine is securely nestled, making it a perfect gift to celebrate weddings, anniversaries, or other heartfelt moments. This keepsake box adds a touch of sophistication to any celebration.
The Sip in Style: Personalized Wedding Wine Box laser cutting project is a functional item.
Suitable as a gift for adults.
The project uses 3mm plywood.
It is an an intermediate project, and I estimate the project can be completed in 3 hours. However, your completion time will depend on the laser cutter, the dimensions of the project and your skill level. If you think my time estimates need adjustment, please feel free to let me know via a comment below.

Instructions
1. Prepare the Materials
- Plywood: Choose stains or dyes to be applied after laser cutting to enhance the natural wood texture.
2. Prepare the Design File
- Download the design file from the source link provided on the project page.
- Unzip the file to access the SVG.
- Load the SVG into your laser cutting software.
- Personalise the message on the front of the case.
- Don't resize the wine box.
3. Set Up the Laser Cutter
- Set the appropriate laser parameters:
- Cut: Specify power and speed for clean cuts.
- Score: Specify power and speed to ensure the words are visible.
- For the material-specific settings, refer to your laser cutter’s guidelines.
4. Use the Laser Cutter
- Place your material on the laser bed.
- Run the cutting processes for all required pieces.
5. Following Laser Cutting
- For Plywood: Wipe smoke marks away with a slightly damp rag. Apply the wood stain or dye.
6. Assemble the Layers
- Use appropriate adhesives:
- Wood Glue for plywood - I used something stretchy to wrap around the case.
