Let it flow

L was feeling bogged down by the multitude of choices for her ring. We had a meeting prior to their carving session to look through samples and she decided she was going to create a hammered ring, but once she saw her wax carving cast in 14k yellow gold, she wanted to preserve the unique faceted pattern she created through carving her ring as the texture for her ring. We are so proud of her and love guiding through the wedding ring making journey.

Often asked about

When do we book for?

Planning a wedding is a really exciting time, with a lot of moving parts to be coordinated. Once you have your wedding date solidified, you’re welcome to reach out to us to book yourselves into our calendar.

Dates are a first come first serve basis. We book 3 wedding workshops each month. Securing your spot ensures your start date (about four to five months from your wedding date) is saved for you.

Prior to your first session, we will discuss your ring vision so we both are confident in knowing your desired rings are achievable in the workshop.

Do I need to know exactly what I want to make before our first session?

Yes and no. Having a general idea of what you’d like to make is helpful - a simple band vs a textured ring vs something abstract vs something fitted to an engagement ring. Exact measurements will be sorted out through your ring carving process. Ideally you know what kind of metal you’d like your rings made into (white, yellow, or rose gold). We will exchange photos prior to your first session, in the very least, so everyone will be on the same page.

What if my design is too complicated for a wedding ring workshop?

Through our conversations, if we feel that your dream wedding band is unachievable through our workshop setting, we would receommend having us take over the fabrication process. You’d still be involved in co-creating the design, but we will handle all the hands on work to bring your ring into reality.

Do you offer payment plans?

Yes! We take the first payment to lock in your wedding workshop session, and we can split the second and third sessions to cover your metal costs at each of your workshop sessions.

Can we meet before the first workshop session?

We will discuss via email your wedding ring ideas to make sure the wedding ring workshops are a right fit for your vision. If you’re really undecided and would love to meet in person, we are happy to book you into our schedule and have you come check out the space and discuss options.

Do i have to come with my partner?

No! This can be a solo venture or an experience for the two of you together. You’re welcome to make your own ring - or your partner’s - or both (which would just require a bit more studio time). If you’re just making your own ring and your partner would like to come hang out and observe the process - they are more than welcome!

Can we book a photographer to come document the sessions?

Of course!! This is such a special thing to do and incorpoate into your wedding and love story. What a great way to keep the memories is to have it documented. We are happy to assist in coordinating dates with your photographer as best as we can.
