Hi 👋 we’re Dan and Laura.

After our vineyard proposal, we sought a wedding band that matched the depth of our connection. Mass-produced rings fell short—lacking character and craft. Inspired by our shared moment among the vines, we envisioned a ring made from a wine barrel, rich with history and meaning. After having so much fun working with the vineyard to source the barrel and craft the ring, Dan’s handcrafted band became the first of its kind, launching Mondeu—a brand that creates timeless wedding bands from rare vineyard and distillery barrels for couples who value authenticity, tradition, and a very cool story.
