Byers & Co

By 1st February 2017
Byers & Co make everything on-site, so whether you want to "have a bash" at helping create your own rings, or would like to commission bespoke rings, they are able to offer plenty of advice, ideas and transparent pricing from the get-go. 
 
Commissions for wedding rings begin the same way all of their commissions do; with a blether, perhaps a quick doodle, loads of tea, and maybe a Jaffa cake, before Linda retreats to her cavern of creative craziness (usually the fume cupboard, or gin bar) and works on between 4 and 6 scale drawings of design concepts to send out to you. This is free of charge.Byers & Co weddings sketches
 
After that, Linda will tweak and refine the sketches to your feedback before settling on a final design together and confirming the price, then it's to the bench! Rings can take between two and six weeks to complete, so usually you'll agree a collection date at this final meeting. 

Make your own wedding rings workshops

Making your own wedding rings works in much of a similar way, usually a chat about what you would like, Linda gets the materials in and prepped, before a busy day of soldering, hammering, shaping and polishing. Manicures aren't recommended before the workshop day! But What better way to work out pre-wedding angst than hammering solid metal?
 
Then at the end of a busy day, you can take away your very own hand made wedding rings boxed and ready for the big day. Of course Linda is on hand the whole day to step in as much or as little as you would like. 
 
Workshop days are £250 per couple, excluding materials. The materials start at £30 but are subject to your choice and carat of metal.
