about

wedding collection

Kayge started as a little Covid hobby. While some people were baking sourdough or learning to knit, I decided to take a jewelry class—just for fun. At first, I was only making pieces for myself, then for friends, and then their friends. Eventually, a friend of a friend reached out and asked if I could make her wedding band.

I was honored—but also terrified. She trusted me with something so meaningful before I fully trusted myself. I kept putting off the design, and finally one day, I sat in my front yard and sketched out ten ideas. I sent them to her, nervously waiting by my phone, fully expecting her to regret having asked. But she didn’t. She loved them—so much so that she couldn’t decide which one to go with. We made some tweaks together, landed on a final design, and brought it to life. That ring still means so much to me—not just because of how it turned out, but because it was the start of a big shift in my business.

Since then, I’ve had the chance to create so many custom wedding pieces, and over time, I started noticing certain design elements popping up again and again. They felt like the heart of Kayge—simple, sculptural, a little unexpected—and I wanted to find a way to make them more accessible. With a year-long waitlist for custom pieces, launching a wedding line felt like the right move.

But I also knew I didn’t want to lose what I love most about working with clients: collaboration. I wanted people to still be able to make the piece feel like their own. That’s where the stone customizer comes in. I’m such a visual person—I need to actually see the stones laid out on a ring before I can commit. So now, you can do that too. Move them around, try different placements, come back later and change your mind. Designed by you, made by Kayge.

When choosing the pieces for this collection, I thought deeply about why people come to Kayge. One reason is practicality: many engagement rings don’t pair well with traditional wedding bands. This is a common frustration I’ve seen over and over, and these three styles were designed with that in mind. While every engagement ring is unique, these designs are versatile enough to complement a wide range of styles.

Another reason people come to Kayge is to add something special to their ring stack—especially if their engagement ring is more traditional or minimal. With that in mind, I selected styles that range from understated to a bit more edgy, always with timelessness in mind. We went through countless iterations to refine this collection, and I truly believe we’ve landed on the perfect mix.

Of course, shopping for something this personal online can be tough. That’s why we created the Perfect Fit Kit—so you can try on up to three 3D models at home, see how they feel on your finger, or pair with your engagement ring (if you already have one), and make sure it all works before you commit.

I’m genuinely so proud of what we’ve created. This line has been a true labor of love, and I hope you find a ring here that feels just right for you.

my story

My journey into the world of jewelry creation started at the age of 10. I remember begging my parents to take me to a silver ring making class. They had to do some convincing but I was eventually allowed to join in (with a lot of extra help from the instructor). Since then I have always been drawn toward sterling silver jewelry and taken classes here and there while in high school, university, and after. During the pandemic I decided it would be a nice hobby to dive into. After finding Whaley Studios in San Diego I started creating pieces for myself. Slowly my friends and others started asking if I could make jewelry for them and eventually Kayge was born.

All items are constructed entirely by hand using recycled sterling silver in my studio in San Diego, California. Playing with simple and sculptural aspects, I hope to create timeless, high quality pieces that can be passed on and enjoyed for generations.

Due to the handmade nature of my jewelry, each piece is unique and no two pieces will be exactly the same and may have subtle imperfections. I believe the handmade, one of a kind nature of my work is what makes it special. Please reach out if you have any questions/ comments!
