Christian Wedding Favor | Bethlehem Olive Wood Cross + Custom Scripture Card

Pack of 10 crosses, including a card with a Bible verse and a Jute bag for each.

Your guests came to witness a covenant. Send them home with a piece of the land where it all began.
A christian wedding favor unlike anything your guests have ever held — a handcrafted olive wood cross from Bethlehem, engraved with your names and wedding date, paired with a parchment verse card bearing the love scripture you chose for your ceremony.
Every piece in this holy land wedding set is made entirely by hand by a Christian family whose roots in Bethlehem’s olive wood craft stretch back generations. This tradition has been passed from parent to child since Byzantine times, and remains a vital source of livelihood for Bethlehem’s Christian community. When your guests hold this wedding cross favor, they hold a piece of that living heritage — and their purchase directly supports that family still working in Bethlehem today. Etsy

THE ENGRAVED OLIVE CROSS
A smooth comfort cross olive wood piece shaped to rest naturally in the palm — small enough for a pocket, meaningful enough to keep for a lifetime. Each holding cross engraved with up to 10 characters:

Your initials + wedding date: J & M · 06.14.25
A word that defines your marriage: “Covenant”
A verse reference: “Ruth 1:16”
Simply your names: “John & Mary”

No two crosses share the same wood grain — just as no two love stories are the same.

THE CUSTOM SCRIPTURE CARD
A parchment verse card on heavy-weight textured cardstock with hand-burned torn edges, giving each card the feel of an ancient manuscript from the Holy Land. Your chosen love verse — Song of Solomon, Ruth, Corinthians, Ecclesiastes — engraved by hand with original artwork created specifically for your words.
This is a true scripture wedding favor — not a printed template. Every design is created from scratch for your order.

THE JUTE BAG
Each set arrives in a natural jute bag — simple, elegant, and ready to place on each seat or in a welcome basket.

CERTIFICATE OF HOLY LAND ORIGIN
Every order includes a certificate confirming the authentic Bethlehem origin — a detail your guests will treasure and talk about long after the wedding day.
