On the Right Track

Well we went on our trip and turned out very romantic. I set the dinner with a beach view at sunset?ˆ¦etc. Actually it didn?ˆ™t happen on the trip instead we were having bad luck with some stuff on the trip although it was fun and I was ready it just didn?ˆ™t feel right. I waited until we came back home and on her Birthday I asked her. I had surprised her with a gag gift and she had no idea (Roomba) what?ˆ™s more romantic than getting an automated vacuum? I thought the same thing and by the look of her face I knew that I was on the right track I decided to make a Patio dinner and found some icicle lights to illuminate the dinner and candles. I layered the entire patio with rose petals and lit a path extending from the door through the house to the patio with petals and tea candles. I created a playlist of our favorite songs to set the mood. (I wanted to control as much variable as I could to be spectacular) and created a wine bottle with my personal label of us (photoshop) on the bottom of the bottle where typically the year and name of wine is, I asked the question ?ˆ?Will you marry me?ˆ? ! On the back label I wrote ?ˆ?Once upon a time a boy met a girl?ˆ¦.?ˆ? I served dinner and by the time desert was coming out I played Foo Fighters ?ˆ“ Everlong and went inside to grab the bottle. As I walked out I told her that I had another gift and that the roomba was only 1 out of 2. I expressed my feelings and took the bottle and showed her the second gift (still concealing the bottom question I told her that I had this made and I wanted this to be the real gift and as she took a gulp of wine I kneeled and showed her and asked her to marry me. It took her a while to answer because she had just taken a mouth full of wine and had no room to respond. But eventually she got up and said yes. I told her to open the bottle because I had concealed the ring on top of the bottle in between the cork and foil wrap.

I had an outstanding experience working with Becca at Whiteflash! She was incredibly helpful, professional, and brought a great sense of humor to the process—which helped ease the nerves of picking out such an important piece. I was on a tight timeline before flying to Pittsburgh to propose, and Becca went above and beyond to help me find the perfect engagement ring and have it ready that same day. What really stood out was her personal touch—she even followed up via email to check in and see how the proposal went. That level of care and attention made the entire experience feel truly special. Thanks to her, everything went perfectly. I highly recommend Becca for anyone looking for exceptional service and a genuinely enjoyable jewelry-buying experience.

I just have to say how thrilled we are with the custom setting and that A Cut Above diamond. The fire sparkle truly took my breath away, and the pave band makes it look so much bigger. I actually took the ring with me on a trip to Shika Snow Mountain in Yunnan, China. At the summit, with eight other peaks all around us, I proposed to me girlfriend and she said yes! We both couldn’t stop staring at the ring; it was the perfect sparkler for such a magical moment. Thank you for bringing our vision to life. Your craftsmanship and attention to detail made this ring unforgettable.

My goodness, it’s stunning — of course in bright sunshine — but I mean even in low light, they capture it all … The eternity just brings out the cut of both the solitaire and the eternity itself. Thank you immensely for all your help in the entire process … and can’t wait till the next one!
