Custom Wedding Rings by a Local San Diego Artist

If you’re looking for a personalized touch for your wedding rings, look no further than local San Diego artist Anne Wolf. She crafts custom made Mokume-gane committment and wedding rings for couples here in San Diego.

“Mokume-gane is a labor-intensive ancient Japanese technique that results in swirling patterns of color created from various precious metal alloys. As a result of the process, each pair of rings are a matched mirror-image. This makes the material a meaningful and popular choice for rings meant to symbolize love and commitment between individuals.”

Getting a customized set of wedding rings from a local San Diego artist allows you to visit personally with the artist, support our local artist’s community, and be able to get personalized service for a very important aspect of your commitment with your future spouse. See examples of some of Anne’s work below!

Get more information about Anne’s work on her website, Ray Street Annex.

Creative Wedding Venues

Besides getting married in a church, hotel, or in one of San Diego’s pretty outdoor locations, there are a number of various locales to have your wedding take place. If you can rent out the space, chances are you can have your wedding held there. Here are a few ideas for some more offbeat locations to your wedding.

Vineyards or Wineries
Bernardo Winery, Deer Park Winery or one of the vineyards in Temecula is a good place to start looking at possible locations for your wedding.

Golf Courses
Many of our local golf courses have beautiful landscaping and great club houses. A couple of good places to start looking would be the Cottonwood Golf Club, Bonita Golf Club or the La Costa Resort and Spa.

Sunset Cliffs - San Diego, CA

Art Museums
One beautifully located museum to consider is the Museum of Contemporary Art in La Jolla, which can be rented out for special events.

Farms, Meadows, Orchards or Gardens
Consider a wedding in the countryside in a meadow or orchard. A great place to start looking would be near Julian, the small mountainside resort just east of San Diego. Julian offers a variety of locations for your wedding ceremony. Brookside Farm in Dulzura, Chanteclair Country Manor in North County or the Quail Botanical Gardens in Encinitas are a few other locations to help jumpstart your search.

On the Water
The Star of India or the Berkeley ferryboat may be a wonderful way to take advantage of San Diego’s beautiful harbor. Not many get to get married right on the sea!

Japanese Friendship Garden - San Diego, CA

Other places to consider:

  • Veteran, Legion, Club, or Meeting Halls
  • Theaters
  • Old Schoolhouse (see the Old Richland Schoolhouse in San Marcos)
  • University chapels
  • Your favorite bar or club
  • Restaurant’s private dining room
  • Wild Animal Park, San Diego Zoo, Sea World
  • Any number of places within Balboa Park (Japanese Friendship Garden, etc.)
  • Hot air balloon ceremony in Del Mar or Temecula
  • Historic homes
  • Private Estates
