Have you ever thought about making your own wedding rings? Or perhaps a unique promise ring or anniversary ring?
There is nothing more romantic than exchanging rings on your big day that you've forged for each other; infused with love from every blow of your hammer!
This one-day course will take you and your loved one step-by-step through the process of forging your own beautiful rings in our quaint little forge in Benfleet, Essex.
The Kerr Forge Blacksmith, Jon, will be alongside to help and advise at every step to ensure you take home rings you are proud to wear for a lifetime.
Cancellation and a full refund can be obtained up to 2 weeks before the course starts. Start dates may be amended on request.
The price is per couple, and includes two rings.
All the tools and materials required to make your rings will be provided. At the end of the course, you will take home two rings in protective pouches to keep until your big day.
Rings will be made from highly durable steel which will last a lifetime. Contrary to popular belief- steel rings will not rust if worn regularly, as the natural oils from the skin keep the ring polished. For an additional charge, pattern welded Damascus steel can be provided for an even more beautiful ring.
Soft drinks, tea, coffee and biscuits will be provided.
For an additional charge, you can also choose to have lunch in the garden, where you can create-your-own pizza with a wide range of toppings, to be cooked in our wood-fired oven and enjoyed with a glass of wine or beer.
6 hours (flexible times to suit)

We had the most amazing day making our wedding rings. Jon was a really great teacher, and it was such a great experience. I was quite apprehensive as I haven't done anything like it before. With Jon's expert guidance the rings are beautiful and we will love them everyday knowing that we forged them together! I would highly recommend it or any of the other courses Jon offers. Thank you
My (now) husband and I made our wedding rings at Kerr Forge! I was initially hesitant, I have never done anything like this before and was unsure if I’d be able to actually do it! However, through Jon’s brilliant teaching and patience, I had the best day! My husband and I love our unique rings and get so many compliments. It’s great being able to say that we made them ourselves, makes them even more special!
Fantastic day making our wedding rings at Kerrforge! Jon was such a great teacher. The whole process was fascinating and to know we made the rings we are going to wear everyday is so special!
