Delivered project
A US wedding-stationery and rental brand ordered 100 slot-top card boxes in two variants from one cutting file: retail boxes with laser-engraved names and date, and rental boxes with a swappable printed panel. The white acrylic was matched to their stationery on physical swatch chips before sampling, and the 19 cm slot was flame-polished with radiused corners.
“We rent the same frosted acrylic card boxes for every wedding and gala. The swappable front panel means one box covers any event, the lock reassures the hosts, and after four seasons of use they still look new.”
Five factors drive acrylic card box pricing: box size, acrylic thickness, slot and lid configuration, personalization method, and order quantity. Venue and event-rental buyers see per-unit cost improve above the 100-piece production floor as cutting, polishing, and print setup spread across more boxes. Send us your size, quantity, and whether you need a lock, and we respond within 24 hours with an exact FOB Shenzhen quote.
Yes. We build lockable acrylic card boxes with a hinged or lift-off lid that closes over a hasp, secured with a small keyed padlock or a combination lock. The card slot stays open on top so guests can drop envelopes in, but the lid can't be opened without the key or code — the standard setup for wedding gift tables, charity galas, and fundraising dinners where the box sits unattended. We size the slot to fit standard greeting-card and cash envelopes (typically a 16–20cm wide slot) and can add a clear or frosted acrylic body so the contents stay visible but the box stays secured.
Purpose defines the difference. An acrylic card box is a collection box — guests drop greeting cards, envelopes, and cash or check gifts through a slot in the top, and the box holds them for the host to open later. It features a card slot, an optional lock, and a large personalization surface for names and dates. An acrylic gift box is packaging — a single product is placed inside and the whole box is given as the gift, with a lift-off or hinged lid and an interior insert that cradles the item. If envelopes go in through a slot, it's a card box. If a product sits inside and the box is handed over, it's a gift box.
Yes — personalization is the most-requested feature on wedding and event card boxes. We add names, a monogram, a wedding date, an event title, or a company logo using laser engraving (permanent, frosted-etch look on clear acrylic), UV printing (full-color, photo-quality), or applied vinyl decal (lowest-cost, suited to single events). Laser engraving is the most popular for weddings because the etched text catches the light and reads as premium. Send us your names, date, and preferred font, and we mock it up before production.
Reusable card boxes are exactly why event venues, hotels, and rental companies choose acrylic over paper or cardboard collection boxes. A 5mm clear or frosted acrylic card box survives repeated setup, transport, and cleaning across many events — it wipes clean, resists moisture from a bar or outdoor reception, and doesn't crush or dent. For a box a venue reuses, we recommend leaving the personalization off the box itself and instead using a swappable printed card or decal panel per event, so the same box serves a wedding one weekend and a corporate gala the next.
We make production runs from 100 pieces per design, so a single box for one wedding is below what we can build. Our card boxes go to wedding planners, venues and hotels, event-rental companies, party and gift retailers, and nonprofits that need 100 or more boxes. If you run one of those businesses, send your size, quantity and personalization and we quote within 24 hours.
Yes. Bulk orders start at 100 pieces per design, and several designs can share one order and shipment with each design meeting its own 100-piece minimum. Rental fleets usually choose 5 mm walls and a swappable front panel so one box works for every event, while retail stock usually carries engraved names and a date. We keep the approved sample and cutting files so reorders match the first run.
Send us your box size, guest count, and whether you need a lock or personalization — names, a date, or a logo. We respond within 24 hours with a detailed quote covering box size, slot and lid type, lock option, and timeline. No commitment required. Sample before you commit to production.
