Welcome to Real Couples, Real Stories—a peek inside the ring designs (and love stories!) of the people who chose to carve their own wedding bands using our Wedding Band Kit. From heartfelt engraving to clever stone choices and custom shapes, each couple shares what inspired their design and what it meant to create something so personal for their big day.
Charlie & Eddie
Charlie & Eddie’s beautiful wedding rings are a perfect reflection of their values—thoughtful, personal, and kind to the planet. Crafted in 100% recycled 9ct gold and finished with meaningful fingerprints and engraving, they made their wedding bands their way. As a sustainability content creator, it was important to Charlie (@lifebeforeplastic_) that their rings told a story of love and conscious choices.
What made you decide to carve your own wedding rings?
We’re both creative people are were really drawn to the crafting aspect of creating our own rings. It allowed us to make something unique to our style, and if you look carefully enough you can see the individual marks we made, the imperfections make them even more special.
Tell us about the design of your rings?
The most significant parts of our rings are each of our finger prints and our hand drawn engravings. It took some trial and error to get our finger prints right, but we love that we are wearing a little piece of each other as a symbol of our marriage.
What does wearing a ring you’ve designed and created yourself mean to you?
We’ll wear our wedding rings every day for the rest of our lives, and having a ring that captures the each other is so precious. Every time we look at our rings we’re reminded of our love, that’s pretty special.
There’s something so special about wearing a ring that’s completely your own. With every detail shaped by hand, these rings are not just jewellery—they’re a reflection of love, personality, and the creative journey behind them. 💛💍 For wedding rings as unique as your love story – shop our wedding kit!
