About
Elevated Engravings is a small laser-engraving studio in West Vail run by founder Armando Araiza, a longtime Vail resident who came to it from a career in hospitality. It makes award plaques, engraved metal plates, name tags, branded drinkware, signs and personalized gifts, and it will engrave items you bring in yourself.
It suits businesses, nonprofits and event organizers who need recognition awards or branded gifts, and couples planning a Vail wedding. It is a made-to-order studio rather than a walk-in gift shop, and it does not do same-day work.
What they make
Awards come in wood, acrylic and glass; metal plates are cut to size in brass, aluminum or stainless steel, for indoor or outdoor use such as memorial benches. The studio also engraves plastics, leather, glass, paper and fabric, and it has worked with the Town of Vail, The Sebastian, TEDxVail and Patagonia.
Weddings and events
For weddings, the studio makes seating charts, welcome signs, guest books, toasting glasses, cake toppers, ring boxes and attendant gifts. On-site engraving at an event is possible by arrangement.
How an order works
Start with a free 10 to 15 minute consultation by phone, video or at the office. You get a proof and an invoice, and payment confirms the job. Standard turnaround is 10 to 14 business days, and faster work carries a rush fee.
Pricing and pickup
Items bought from the studio's catalog include the engraving and ship free. Engraving your own items carries a setup fee per project; the FAQ has the rates, bulk discounts and the nonprofit discount. Pickup from the office is free.
