A Diamond Ring Story – Mitch and Glenda

We love hearing engagement stories and proposals. This was very cool as it was an anniversary present and, well, the note and pictures speak for themselves.

Hey Ron,

The Happy Couple

I hope you are doing well!  I wanted to update you after this weekend.  The wife and I went down to Miami and hopped on a three day cruise with her family.  This was on Friday…the Saturday night, at an elegant dinner in front of all of her family on the cruise ship I told everyone that I wanted to take this opportunity to do something official that I hadn’t had the chance to do.  I got on one knee and blew everyone away man.  It was awesome!!  The ring couldn’t have looked more classy!  It was amazing!!

We are happy to be a part of such a special moment and wish Mitch and Glenda the all the best. And for those of interested in looking at the ring, here it is – a beautiful cushion cut!

Update on Testimonials: What Did You Think of Your Engagement Ring?

Wedding Set
In case you hadn’t noticed, with the last redesign our Testimonials section is no longer in the main menu. This doesn’t mean we have lost the feature, but it now has moved to the left side of most pages. If you click the testimonial you’ll see the updated list of testimonials – which of course, are updated as frequently as we get them.

We’ve been doing a lot of good work selling engagement rings lately, right here in Baltimore (people don’t mind driving in from Washington DC or the rest of Maryland, either) and it seems that our customers have been noticing! Here are just a few of people’s most recent comments about our services:

I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate the help and diamond knowledge you shared with me Ron. Being a first time engagement ring purchaser at 46 years of age I was lost! Not only did I get exactly what I wanted by deciding the diamond and setting separately but I made the love of my life happy!!! Thanks Ron.

Brian

Dear Ron,

You guys seem to have a great group of people working there in the store. I do like the casual (non stuck up) type of people to work with when shopping. Was an easy trip up and easy trip back….yes, looking forward to receiving the diamond ring on Tuesday.

Thank you now,

Gary

Hi Ron,

The diamond arrived mid-morning. Hope to get to my jeweler’s tomorrow to have set. It is beautiful and to my eyes a great match for the other stone. Thank you for being so professional in doing the deal with me. I will be contacting you soon because another close friend wants me to pick out a larger diamond for them.

Hi Steve,

I just wanted to drop you a quick note to thank you for dropping the ring off to Myra. Time has been at a premium and your willingness to bring my wedding band this way was a great help.
Thank you. Best wishes for the New Year!

Why We Love Selling Engagement Rings

We love to hear engagement stories and proposal ideas.  It’s what makes our job so gratifying.   Sometimes, we sell a ring and never hear about it again.  Other times, we hear how much our customers love their diamond.

And every once in awhile, we get a story like this:

Hi Ron,

I proposed to my girlfriend on Sunday the 8th, and she said yes without hesitation!  We went out on a mountain bike ride at Patapsco Valley State Park, down near Elkridge.  Took her up to the scenic outlook at Buzzards Rock, and asked her there.  And of course, she loves the ring.

Dan included some pictures he’d taken of the event on flickr. We asked him if we could use them and he said:

You can use them on your Facebook or blog posts, just don’t edit them in any way other than resizing.  Oh, and her name is Christy, just FYI.  Thanks.

Dan

So without further ado we present the photos, unedited as Dan asked.

Nice Stone!

Nice Stone!

Let's give them a hand!

Let’s give them a hand!

Congratulations to Dan and Christy!  We wish the best for them and their future marriage!   Please comment and share your proposal story.  Click here to see some more on our facebook diamonds fan page!
