I would use a different font for the names and use a round over bit along the edges of the hearts, the base could be solid and use small dowels or metal pins to attach the heart to the base.
Just a suggestion

Inlay Tip
Though I would pass on my tip. Everyone talks about bits and depth of cut etc. I was working on a very detailed inlay yesterday, when cleaning up the both the male and female v carves pay special attention to cleaning out material left behind from the cutters.

Re: Wedding Sign
I would vcarve the text and then fill with epoxy resin.
The larger text could be a contrasting color.

Re: Inlay Tray prototype
Thank you Martin The couple of things I have learned from this testing… The inlay for me is the easy part. The tray/bowl … not sure what the difference is… anyway having the Bubinga base has made the tray very heavy and I will probably not use it and just go with the 10mm end grain walnut as the bas...

Re: A simple way to make inlays

Re: A simple way to make inlays
Ok why are you using an lnlay if you want raised letters ?
What I would do is glue two contrasting species of timber together and use a vcarve and clearance tool path to remove the unwanted top surface material to expose the text.
I do this with a raised 3d model with contrasting materials.
