Is it ok to give a perp plaque with no plates and keep them back and engrave them as needed.

Joyce,

There's no right or wrong way.

Most perpetual plaques have all the plates in place, for a complete appearance.

If you do make a plaque without all the plates affixed, make sure you have some means of aligning plates, as they're added, i.e. lightly engraved box, where the plates are adhered.

I wouldn't do it with screw on plates as it would look unfinished and may be a trick lining them up straight one at a time.

Other options are using a board or plate with the blank boxes drawn to which a plate is added later.

I do some plaques where I keep the plates. I use my laser to mark all of the screw holes and put my screws in. The company e-mails me the names once a month and I send them engraved plates.
