I am making a pen set (1 for the Bride, 1 for the Groom) as a gift to a young couple that is getting married.
The kits that I will be using for the set will be a Majestic Jr kits. I started to make the blanks, but they are not 100% finished yet.
What I am asking everyone for is advice on which combination looks best. Your advice is greatly appreciated.
Note: cap on left, nib on right

I recently shown these because someone else asked for examples of wedding pens. So I like the matching of top and bottoms in this case. It distinguishes the person's pen. But I added engraving. I used the Majestic for Groom and Majestic JR for Bride. The blanks were black Mother of Pearl for Groom and white Mother of Pearl for Bride. These were for my Nephew and his bride.

Nice set of pens. I wish I had an engraver to engrave the pens I made. I am trying to put water slide decals on both of them, but I am having trouble with gold color. Because of this I might have to go with #4, and use black water decal. Thanks for the response and pictures. Again Awesome work!
 
Thanks to everyone that participated in this thread. I ended up with going with #4. Again, thanks!

I made a pair similar but reversed the colors on each pen. Didn't want the bride and groom arguing if one was lost or damaged. This way they could tell them apart.

You can send them to https://www.kallenshaanwoods.com/ to be engraved. Curse my poor memory, I don't even remember the guys name! He can do the fill too, or you can do it. It is not hard with acrylic (water based paint.

I had him engrave a "flag"pen with the Pledge of Allegiance

Unfortunately, the wedding is Saturday, that is why I went with the water slide. Later engraving would be better, but the water slide looks nice.

I agree, but i didn't have a laser to engrave the pens. All I had was water slide decals. So one pen it has the Brides name first, and the other has the Groom's name first.
