Make your own wedding rings
Spend a memorable day hand crafting your wedding bands together in a cosy workshop in West Wales.
How it Works
Your wedding ring making journey starts with an informal meeting with me at the workshop or online, before your workshop day to discuss what you would like to make. We will measure your finger sizes, and work out how much gold/silver you will need based on what you choose to make.
From there, I can work out an accurate price for your gold or silver and, if you are happy to go ahead we can confirm a date for your workshop. I’ll then order the precious metal especially for your workshop day.
You can make rings in 9ct or 18ct, yellow, white or rose gold. Silver is an option too. Rings can be D-shaped, round or flat shaped bands. Rings can have a matt, polished or hammered finish.
Gold/Silver is on top of the workshop day price of £375 and varies a lot depending on the size shape and material you choose.
Small 9ct gold rings range from £60 - £200 per ring and large 9ct rings can be between £150 and £400 per ring.
Small 18ct gold rings range from £150 per ring to £400 and larger 18ct rings can be between £300 and £700 per ring.

'We made our wedding rings here at the beginning of March. I can't describe how incredible an experience it was, we were both bowled over by what we produced. Rose seemed to ooze calmness and was so patient with us. Because of MS I have some mobility problems and my hands tire fairly quickly but Rose just helped where necessary with no fuss or comment, which is a really rare skill. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Rose, and if you're wondering about whether to do it or not, just go for it. It's a fantastic experience, a treasured memory, and you really know how unique your ring is.'
