Short version: Handmade pens are the safest all-around pick, dip pens suit a vintage theme, metal pens suit a modern or formal one, and jute pens suit an outdoor or rustic setting. That’s the one-sentence answer. Here’s the longer one, because “it depends on your theme” isn’t always enough to actually decide with.
The comparison, side by side
| Style | Best For | Signature Look | Typical Price Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Handmade Nikkah Pens | A classic, made-with-care signature pen (the safest default) | Fully hand-crafted, our flagship collection | PKR 990–1,790 |
| Dip Nikkah Pens | Classic or old-world wedding themes | Vintage quill style with feather and antique-gear detailing | PKR 1,690 |
| Metal Nikkah Pens | A premium, modern, statement look | Chrome, gold, and rose-gold finishes with gem or dried-flower detailing | PKR 990–1,790 |
| Jute Nikkah Pens | Outdoor, boho, or rustic-themed Nikkahs | Rustic jute rope, heart shapes, and floral accents | PKR 1,490–1,990 |
All four are personalizable with a name or “Qabool Hai,” writing-tested before dispatch, and delivered nationwide. Prices shift a bit within each collection depending on the specific design and add-ons, so treat the ranges above as a starting point, not a fixed number.
Handmade: the one to default to if you’re unsure
This is our flagship collection, and it’s flagship for a reason: it doesn’t lean hard into any one aesthetic, so it fits comfortably into most wedding themes without looking out of place. If you’ve looked at the other three and nothing’s screaming “this is us,” handmade is where most people land. It’s also generally the most budget-friendly entry point across the four collections.
Dip pens: for couples who want the signing table to look like a period photograph
Quill shape, feather detailing, antique gear accents: dip pens are the closest thing we make to “old-world.” They suit weddings with a vintage color palette (sepia tones, deep golds, muted florals) far better than they’d suit a bright, modern setup. If your invitations look like they could’ve been sent a hundred years ago, this is probably your pen.
Metal pens: for a sleek, formal, photograph-ready look
Chrome, gold, rose gold, sometimes with gem or dried-flower detailing worked into the design. These read as more finished and formal than the other three, which makes them a strong choice for a traditional, dressed-up Nikkah where everything on the table is meant to look polished. They’re also, in our experience, the pick most grooms gravitate toward when choosing solo.
Jute pens: the one people don’t expect until they see it
Rope textures, floral accents, heart-shaped detailing: jute pens don’t try to look formal, and that’s the point. They’re built for outdoor Nikkahs, garden settings, and rustic or boho themes where a shiny metal pen would actually look wrong. If your wedding photographer keeps saying “earthy” or “natural” when you describe your vision, this is worth a look before you rule it out.
So which one, actually?
If your theme is already decided, the table above basically makes the decision for you. Match the pen to the setting, not the other way around. If your theme isn’t decided yet, it’s honestly fine to let the pen influence it a little. We’ve had more than a few couples pick a pen first and build the signing table styling around it afterward.
Still torn between two? Order small. Most of these come in single units, not sets, so trying one out isn’t a big financial commitment relative to the rest of a wedding budget.
FAQs
Which Nikkah pen style is the most popular?
Handmade Nikkah pens are our best-selling collection, largely because they suit the widest range of wedding themes rather than committing to one specific look.
Are metal Nikkah pens heavier than the other styles?
Generally yes. Metal pens have more physical weight than jute or most handmade designs, which some grooms specifically prefer for how it feels in the hand during the signing.
Can I use different styles for the bride and groom?
Yes, and it’s fairly common. There’s no requirement that both pens match; plenty of couples pick two different styles that each person individually prefers.
