Ben & Sarah's Story.

Our journey with Spinaje began after my now husband Ben proposed to me and produced an engagement ring, designed and made by Carmel of Elemental Design Magic.
Unbeknown to me Ben had been working closely with Carmel to make a ring representing his love for me- Carmel's personal touch, ability and enthusiasm led us to ask her to design our wedding rings too.
We soon learnt that Carmel and Vicki had launched their new company "Spinaje" and it was an obvious choice for us to ask them to arrange our special Wedding event.
We had vague ideas around a rainbow coloured theme and wanted to make a feature of one of our favourite things about our life in Bristol - hot air balloons. Spinaje managed to merge our ideas so seamlessly that they were like extensions of ourselves! Our Wedding was held in a large barn with a courtyard and surrounding fields. Spinaje were able to incorperate the uncertainty of the weather into their planning, just one of the wonderfully flexible ways they worked with us all the way through. They were so invested in our special day that it never felt to us like they were just doing a job.
Spinaje's imagination is truly something to behold and their ability to create exactly what you are thinking of is unreal. An example of this was a sign we had seen on our travels, where the letters were cut out to show the sunset and the background through it. This nature vs man-made idea was so 'us' and sat so well with Spinaje that they created one just for us with our names, to set perfectly against the backdrop of the Mendip Hills.
Spinaje are perfectionists and once they had translated our vision, they worked relentlessly with us to get every tiny detail so perfect, it was a dream come true when all was finished.
The Diorama
The icing on the cake for us both was the diorama made for our wedding day, based on one of the most special years of our lives, travelling through New Zealand. It was so beautiful; we had no idea how they captured the essence of that year so wonderfully without even talking to us! It just proves how much they can become part of your journey and we will be connected forever with it. We can never thank them enough.
