I'm assuming that the two of you are forging the wedding ring. Right? I'd love to hear more about your wedding. Please do tell!

This is the story behind the wedding pic - which I just put up as a test while I was running through instructions on setting up a blog or image for Marilyn, but since you asked...

 

 

 we made up our own ceremony, we exchanged vows & wedding bands in our friend's private blacksmithing museum

and then used his smithy to do a ceremonial forging. 

Together we made a 5" steel ring to link two other rings that we had made separately before 'the big day'

we alternated heats to shape the ring and then did alternate blows for the actual forge weld.

I could not have wished for a more meaningful or fun wedding ceremony.  It was a fabulous day!
