Wedding Favor Coasters
Monogrammed coaster favors are cheap to make, ordered in large quantities, and carry the fat margins weddings allow. Leatherette, cork, or slate blanks plus a couple’s monogram and date scale to 100+ units off one design.
Weddings mean volume and low price sensitivity. One approved design multiplied across a whole guest list is the easiest big-ticket order a small shop can land.

How to make it
- 1Pick the blank: leatherette (crisp, light), cork (rustic, fast), or slate (premium, heavier to ship).
- 2Lock the couple’s monogram and date into one master file.
- 3Build a multi-up jig so you engrave several coasters per run.
- 4Test one per material type — slate and cork behave nothing alike.
- 5Batch-engrave, quality-check, and box in counts (sets of 4 or 6).
Pro tips
- •Multi-up jigs turn a 100-piece order from a chore into an afternoon.
- •Slate looks the most premium but ships heavy — price shipping in.
- •Sell in sets of 4 or 6; per-piece pricing scares buyers off the volume.
Pricing guidance
Blanks cost $0.50–$2.50 each. Sell favors at $3–$6 per coaster or $14–$24 per set of four; bulk wedding orders often run 75–150 units.

Leatherette gives the crispest, most consistent mark; cork is fast and rustic; slate looks the most premium but ships heavy. Test each — they engrave very differently.
How many coasters is a typical wedding order?+
Guest-favor orders commonly run 75–150 pieces off a single approved design, which is why a multi-up jig matters.
