Our rings are even better than what we dreamed up!
Dear Lewis and Alba,
Thank you so much for making Wedding Ring Workshop such an amazing experience. Brendan and I enjoyed every moment in the studio - Alba is so friendly, knowledgeable, and talented at what she does. Our rings are even better than what we dreamed up! We knew what we wanted and Alba helped us to achieve the design. The rings are gorgeous and unique! Thank you, thank you, thank you for helping us make our wedding rings. For the rest of our lives, we will look down at our hands and be reminded of the love, work, creativity, and fun that went into making them.
Sincerely,
Annie Workman & Brendan Coots
Worried at first
Dear Lewis-
We just wanted to let you know that we had a wonderful time at the Wedding Ring Workshop with Alba last Saturday. We were a little worried at first because we didn't have a design in mind, but Alba was very helpful.
At times I was so worried about messing up, but she was there every step of the way! I still can't believe we made the rings ourselves! We took plenty of pictures so we have proof for people who won't believe us! Our rings are marvelous and we'll have diamonds added on as soon as Alba gets back from her trip! It was an awesome experience and I can't wait to tell everyone I know!
Here are some pictures.... Thank you and have a happy new year!

No better teacher
Dear Lewis,
On behalf of my fiancée, Adriane, and myself, we wish to thank you for a truly memorable and wonderful experience in allowing us the opportunity to make our engagement rings with Jay Whaley. Mr. Whaley was very patient and helpful in guiding us as we worked on our rings. We could not have asked for a better teacher.
We have already recommended your wedding ring workshop to two other couples who should be contacting you in the months to come. We wish both you and Mr. Whaley continued success with your workshop.
Sincerely,
Steven Kaufman
We’ve set a date!
Lewis,
I just wanted to let you know that we have set a date. Sabrina and I will be getting married on April 21, 2007.
She has been getting lots of compliments on the ring, you guys did a great job. Everyone cannot get over that we actually made our own rings when we tell them.
Thanks again for a great experience.

One mailing I'm so glad I actually read!
Hi, Lewis - I wanted to let you know what a fabulous time Larry and I had making our rings with Steve on March 12th - the experience was truly beyond words and we loved every minute. Steve was so down to earth and a wonderful teacher - so patient and full of great information - we loved him. We will never forget our wedding ring workshop, it's the one piece of the seemingly thousands of wedding related mailings we got that I am so glad I actually read (and didn't toss in the trash).
Thanks again - Dawn Vander Groef
Use me as a reference
Jay & Lewis,
I just want to thank you for making a perfect day for Jeff & I, you thought of everything from the camera, to a snack, lunch, the whole day was just perfect! We both truly enjoyed our experience at the Wedding Ring Workshop and I have highly recommended you to many of my friends and family members. I couldn't wait to get my pictures back so that we could show everyone that we did indeed "Make Our Rings". They turned out perfect!! Thank you again so much for an experience of a lifetime.
If you ever need a reference, please feel free to use me as a contact. I'd be more than happy to give you both a glowing report.
Thanks Again!

All the way from Tokyo to make our rings
Dear Lewis and Joe,
First of all, we wish to thank you very much for wonderful experience. How excited this workshop was! We were always excited and felt very happy during making rings. In fact, we had been nervous until starting this workshop, because we are Japanese and not good at speaking English. However, you were friendly, so luckily, we were able to make irreplaceable rings. We will tell our friends about this wonderful workshop in not only San Diego but also Japan. Although this note has been delayed, you have our heartfelt thanks for all you did to make our workshop such a success.
With appreciation and best wishes.

Friends have a tough time believing we really made them ourselves
Lewis,
We would like to thank you for our enjoyable morning and champagne lunch at the Wedding Ring Workshop™ and for the friendly helpfulness of you and especially Martin. We are sure that the beautiful rings we made are due to his skill as an instructor rather than to ours as "students". Friends have a tough time believing we really made them ourselves. We wish you good luck with this clever idea.

Personally-designed rings at Warehouse prices
This is the most amazing experience. You spend a day working with a jewelry designer and metalworker, creating your own wedding bands. You get to choose from a variety of metals, though we used beautiful 18K.
We did this yesterday, and it was incredible. Starting with a pile of gold balls, we ended with rings that we would never have been able to afford from (different company) or whatever. We were guided through the process by Alba Urbina, an amazing jewelry designer in her own right, and it was like getting to watch a master at work AND take a high-level class.
We started the day at like 9:30 am, in a beautiful studio with a mellow cat and dog looking on. First, Alba showed us different ring styles and talked us through the process. We designed our rings with her. Then we melted, poured, milled, and stamped our way to the most perfect ring we could imagine. Anything we couldn't handle, she took over -- gently and encouragingly.
They base the price on the cost of your metal of choice, so it fluctuates. But based on the ring shopping I had already done, I think what we got was, essentially, personally-designed rings at warehouse prices, and a fun, romantic, amazing day to boot.

An heirloom worth passing for generations
Wendy, Martin and Lewis,
When we first contacted The Wedding Ring Workshop, we already had expensive platinum engagement bands from Tiffany & Co.®  When it came to the wedding rings. we knew that money wouldn't make the rings special.  The only way would be to make them for each other, from our hearts, as a special expression of love. The jeweler at the Workshop insured that we had nothing but the most beautiful final product.  I am looking at mine right now, and it reminds me of the special time we spent putting ourselves into the rings we gave to each other.  The Workshop provided a safe, fun, entertaining and romantic way to make our unique rings.  We spent much less money at the Wedding Ring Workshop than we would have at a retail store, but the end jewelry is much, much more valuable.  An heirloom worth passing for generations.

Friends are envious they didn't know about this before they got married!
Hi Jay & Lewis,
Jim & I cannot thank you enough for the wonderful experience we had making our wedding rings! It truly was a romantic and creative adventure; something we will always recall with a smile. Lewis, your guidance and humor in answering our questions and concerns was appreciated. And Jay, well, you are the man! From the moment we stepped into your studio, we knew we were in the right place. Your expertise in helping us select our designs, and the real time instruction you provided while we turned those designs into reality was spot on! The friends we've shared this with are fascinated we fashioned those rings by ourselves, in fact, a few of them are envious they didn't know about this before they got married! Once again, thank you for a day we will always remember and an experience we will never forget!
Best always,
Julie Harber & Jim Kuhns
