4" x 6" Light Weight Aluminum Desktop Picture Frame
A picture-perfect wedding is not complete without preserving and displaying the photos in an elegant picture frame. This silver frame displays a 4" x 6" photo and is a great choice to showcase your favorite memories on your big day. The brushed aluminum finish is soft rather than mirror bright, so it holds the light without throwing a glare across the picture, and the clean square profile lets the photograph do the talking.
Each frame also has a large area for a personalized message or the bride and groom's names and event date. The dropped bottom gives that wording its own band of metal beneath the photo, engraved in-house by HansonEllis, up to 24 characters on each of two lines. Two first names on the first line and the date on the second is the classic, and it is the reason this frame is handed to parents, grandparents and the wedding party as a thank-you rather than bought one at a time.
The 4" x 6" Light Weight Aluminum Desktop Picture Frame measures 6.25"W x 6.25"H x 0.5"D and is made of aluminum and glass, with a felt easel back so it stands on a desk, a shelf, a mantel or a night stand without scratching the surface underneath. Light weight aluminum means it travels well too, which matters when the frames are going out as gifts at the end of the night or into a suitcase after a destination wedding.
It is not only a wedding frame. Engrave a graduation year, an anniversary date, a new baby's name, a retirement and the years of service, or a company name for a client gift, and the same desktop frame does the job. A photo in a plain frame is a picture. A photo in an engraved frame is a record of the day it was taken, which is what keeps it on the desk for years.
Add your engraving text above, choose your quantity, and turn your favorite photograph into a keepsake.

Which one should I choose
A frame is either a holder for a photograph or a record of the occasion in it. That is the whole decision.
| 4" x 6" Light Weight Aluminum Desktop Picture Frame | Pick it when the names and the date should be engraved into the frame itself, on a desk-sized piece that travels well as a gift. |
|---|---|
| A plain store-bought frame with no engraving | Pick it when you only need somewhere to put the picture and nothing has to be recorded on the frame. |
| A larger wall frame | Pick it when the photograph is going on a wall rather than a desk, and accept that it is not a gift you hand over at the end of the night. |
For a wedding, an anniversary or a thank-you gift, the engraved aluminum desktop frame wins because the date stays with the photograph for good.

What do people usually engrave on a wedding frame?
The bride and groom's names and the event date, a married surname with the year, or a short message for the person receiving it.
