Bespoke wedding bells crafted with our uniques travelling foundry
At Bespoke Wedding Bells, we will help you design your own hand-crafted bell. We will bring our travelling foundry to your wedding and melt down bronze to 1100 degrees to create your own wedding bell in front of you and all of your guests.
The bell can be decorated with your names, the date and any special icons that you may desire. Its casting will create a unique and alternative wedding ceremony, which is performed for you, on your special day.
What we do
Ceremonies
Your bell can be cast live at your wedding in front of your friends and family. To personalise the casting of the bell and to make the occasion truly unique you can add silver rings.
Bespoke Bells
Your own hand-crafted bell made just for you. Choose to have your initials, the date of your special day, or anything you like, embossed on your bell. It will last for the rest of your days together.
All occasions
Why not commemorate a special date with a bell, such as a wedding anniversary, birthday, family reunion or any kind of event you have planned? We can perform our live casting in most outdoor spaces.
Bells are one of the most influential instruments created by humankind. Throughout history, they have played an important part in communication and ritual. They have marked our points of birth and death. The bell tower subdivides the day for us. Bells are important in our culture, as they are the markers of change, be it the end of war or the union of two people. Ring in the years to come and mark them with your own bespoke bell.
We travel to you

To last a lifetime
This bell will make a solid and actual lasting reminder of your day. That will be passed down through the generations.
Bronze Bells
Bronze is an alloy made from copper and tin. The fusing together of these two soft metals creates something strong, sonic and long lasting.

Testomonials
“An amazing and unique experience. ‘Bespoke Wedding Bells’ created not only a beautifully handcrafted bell but also a vivid and lasting memory for everyone that came to celebrate our wedding ceremony. They created a moment of true craftsmanship, ritual, and performance.
The bell casting opened a space that joined us and allowed all present to be a part of the process. It feels truly magical to reflect on that moment, among so many in the day, and remember a circle of wonderful people whose blessings surrounded us and are bound in a bell.”
— Jonni Martin and Anna Gormley

They were absolutely ecstatic at receiving such a highly personnel and unique gift - thank you again.”
