Popping the Question

March 22nd, 2010

So I was chatting with a friend on Gmail Chat and I asked him how he proposed. I thought it was great. This is literally what he just told me:

Jonathan: We planned a trip down to South Beach for my birthday.  I shipped the ring down to her parents a few days before we got there so jayne wouldnt find it in the condo and so I wouldn’t have to travel with it.  When we got to Miami, her mom gave us gift bags.  We finished opening our bags and we all decided to go out for brunch.  I came out of the bedroom and said “Hey Jayne, I think there’s one more present you didn’t open!”  She saw the ring box and said “that looks like a serious box.”  I replied “I don’t know what it is, why don’t you open it.”  I handed it to her and she freaked out.  Then I said “now give it back to me so I can give it to you properly.”  Then I got down on my knee

Gorgeous Customer Wedding Photos

December 2nd, 2009

One of the best parts of my job is when customers come back to us, months after the purchase, to show us their wedding photography and say thanks. Here’s a letter I just received today:

Ashley –

I just wanted to write you a quick note to say thanks through all of the ring purchasing process (engagement and wedding rings). I attached a couple of pictures from the wedding and of the rings to this email as well so you could see the pictures.


Thanks, please let me know if you have any questions,

Frank
