DIY Wedding Rings
Turning a simple symbol of commitment into an unforgettable crafting experience you'll prize forever.
You got the “yes!” The hard part’s over. Or so you thought.
We've been there: Wedding planning is like drinking water from a fire hydrant. You've got a lot on your plate—and you haven't even chosen the caterer yet.
If you're like most couples, you probably spent tons of time looking for the perfect engagement ring. Now, for your wedding, you have to look for two perfect rings with a strict deadline.
This time, why not enjoy a fun, relaxing day with your partner and make your own wedding rings? It’ll be a memory you'll cherish for a lifetime.
Build Your Own Wedding Bands
From a selection of gold, platinum, or mokume-gane, let Nick guide you to create gorgeous wedding bands for each other while teaching you the basics of metalsmithing (including sawing, forming, soldering and finishing). We'll take lots of photos for you to share while you honor the Old-World style of jewelry-making by using hammers, saws, files and torches to create two beautiful bands.
Nick's watchful eye guarantees that you'll each have a ring that you'll absolutely love by the end of the workshop. We'll finish them with a custom engraving and a matte or polished finish.
Let us take care of you on this special day! Lunch 🍱, sparkling wine 🥂 and a photo book 🎞 will be provided.
