Beautiful Diamond

So after I purchased a ring from you I quickly locked it away in a briefcase in the back of my closet. At the time my girlfriend was still finishing up her senior year at Southern Methodist University so the initial plan was to fly in for graduation (coincidentally also fell on her 22nd birthday) and propose while her parents were in town and we were already in a celebratory mood. Unfortunately, due to her younger sister graduating the next day from high school in Kansas they could not stay long in down and I shelved that plan. At this point, the ring had been in my briefcase for 4-5 months gathering dust. The summer passed, and during the Fall, Lauren (the girlfriend) made plans to move from Dallas to NYC and take a job with an accounting firm in Times Square and move in with me. Once she moved up here, and we adjusted to living in 800 square feet with no car I realized this was the woman I could spend the rest of my life with and be completely comfortable with. So, the next plan was to take up the Knot.com?ˆ™s offer to clear out the ice rink at Rockefeller center and propose during the Christmas season with just us two on the ice. For better or worse, the day before that was supposed to happen I cracked and couldn?ˆ™t wait any longer and proposed in our apartment. Not the ideal proposal but my now fianc?©e still cried and said ?ˆ?yes?ˆ™?ˆ¦..eventually J. Needless to say she made me re-propose so that she could have an ?ˆ?official?ˆ? wedding proposal story to tell her friends. So, I bought up tickets to the NYC ballet and proposed at Lincoln Center Performing Arts Center in Manhattan, and she said yes again. Wedding day is set for 8/1/09 in Kansas City, KS with a 2-week honeymoon in the French Riviera soon after.

Absolutely beautiful piece.

I was a bit hesitant to use an online jeweler but their staff made it a simple process. They communicate very quickly and their work is second to none. The ring has already gotten so many complements just from photos sent to family as I haven’t proposed yet.

After being let down by another online jeweler these guys jumped to the rescue delivering a custom ring on time and in amazing as advertised condition. Liza was a huge help keeping me updated all through the ordering production and delivery process.

Liza at Whiteflash was very helpful to us in buying a diamond ring. She is knowledgeable and explained the various grades, color, clarity and size etc so we could achieve our goal of a quality diamond at a price point we could afford. I have no hesitation in recommending Whiteflash to others who want to purchase a quality diamond within their budget.

I spent endless hours shopping at local jewelry stores and could never get the full specifications to make proper comparison of stones and prices, which was frustrating. Working with Whiteflash was seamless largely thanks to Becca and her team, who guided me through every step of the process. Their website provides high resolution stones and 360 views, along with extensive specifications and filters to zero in on the best stones. While I was happy with the initial ring that was provided, I wanted to change the stone and that process was smooth as well. I always knew the costs and timing involved, and Becca kept me informed of where I was in the return process and new shipment.
