Make Your Own Wedding Rings Workshop in Brighton
There are few things more meaningful than making each other's wedding rings by hand. This half-day workshop with Gabby Leigh gives you and your partner the time, tools, and expert guidance to create a pair of rings that are entirely your own, shaped by your hands, and carrying exactly the significance you bring to them.
What to expect
Gabby will guide you through every stage of the process, offering clear instruction, reassurance, and the kind of attentive support that comes from over 30 years of teaching metalwork. Whether you arrive with a clear design in mind or just a feeling you want to explore, Gabby will help you find your way into the work.
By the end of your session you will leave with two beautifully crafted pieces of jewellery, made by your own hands, enriched with intention and personal significance.
These sessions are suitable for complete beginners as well as experienced makers. You will feel informed, confident, and well supported throughout.
Bringing your own materials
You are welcome to bring your own gold or silver. Incorporating metal that carries sentimental or family value, such as a parent's ring, an inherited chain, or something passed down, adds another layer of meaning to your finished pieces. Gabby can advise you on this before your session.
Not just for weddings
While wedding rings are at the heart of this workshop, the session is equally suited to anyone wanting to create a ring to mark an important personal milestone, honour a remembrance, or simply make something that means something. Individual bookings are also welcome.
