Three Ways to Create Your Wedding Ring
We offer three unique options for creating your wedding ring, depending on your preferred process and materials.
Option 1: Classic Fabrication (Materials Provided)
We supply the metal in the shape and size of your choice. With guided, hands-on instruction, you’ll learn to bend, shape, texture, solder, and polish your ring from start to finish.
One Full-Day Session
10:00 am – 2:00 pm
Cost: $245 per student
Bonus: Receive 25% off a second registration
Option 2: Use Your Own Gold
Bring your own gold—such as unworn jewellery, broken or inherited pieces, ingots, or coins—to create a deeply meaningful ring. Many students invite family members to contribute gold, making the piece even more special.
Approximately 10 grams of gold per student is required (exact amounts depend on ring width, thickness, and size). More material is needed initially than the final ring weight; any excess gold will be returned to you.
You’ll be guided through melting your gold, rolling it into a ring blank, then shaping, texturing, soldering, and polishing your ring.
One Full-Day Session
10:00 am – 4:00 pm
Additional Fee: $140 per student
(This includes extra studio time and materials required for melting and forming the ring blank.)
Option 3: Wax Carving & Lost Wax Casting (Gemstone Option Available)
Design and carve your ring in wax, with the option to include gemstones. Some stones can be cast in place, while others will require setting after casting. Stone suitability and setting requirements will be discussed in class.
Our expert instructors will guide you through the entire process. Your ring will be professionally cast between sessions and ready for finishing and polishing in your second class.
Note: Not all designs are suitable for this process. A discussion of your design idea is required prior to booking.
Total Time: 1.5 days
Day 1: 10:00 am – 4:00 pm
Day 2: Scheduled with the student based on next steps
Additional Fees:
Casting fee: $250
Professional stone setting: additional cost (quoted as needed)
