Lighthouse Proposal

Lighthouse Proposal

It was the 21st of August 2011. My girlfriend Leah and I were traveling through the Bahamas, seeing the sights and tasting new foods. We were on Abaco Island at a bar/restaurant trying to decide what to do. When we asked the waitress she told us about Hope Island with its pink sand beaches and a candy striped lighthouse. We decided to take the ferry the next day to Hope Island and spend the day on this picturesque little island. When I heard about the lighthouse a little light turned on in my head and I knew that was the place! I started planning how I was going to ask her in my head all night and decided it was best to get there early to avoid too many people being around. The first stop for the ferry was the lighthouse and to our surprise and my luck, we were the only ones there! As we walked up to the lighthouse my nerves were going crazy but I had to keep my cool so she didn't suspect anything. We spiraled up the steep staircase to the top of the lighthouse. After enjoying the view for a few moments Leah wanted to head down but I asked her to wait for a minute and sit down, haha straight away she knew something was up so I didn't hesitate. I knelt down on one with a lovely little cherrywood box in my hand and said 'Leah, would you do me the honor of becoming my wife.' Then I opened the box and all I heard was Waaaah Oh my GOD! After she got over the ring she eventually said YES! I took the ring out of it's box and slipped it on her finger, it fit perfectly. So I would like to thank you and the Whiteflash team for helping me to make that day so special to me and especially Leah.

My experience with Whiteflash was incredible!

From day one, Becca helped me out with the process. I was able to get in touch with her over email and on the phone. She is very patient, explained everything so well, and took the stress out out of the process. She remained in touch throughout and kept me updated. She was very helpful with the stone and ring selection and sent really good pictures and videos of the stone once it was brought in by them. The ring I selected was originally meant for a round stone (and I wanted an oval), and she was quickly able to check for me if that request could be accommodated by the ring-maker. As for the website itself, the experience there was great as well. The filters present on the site for searching stones are great, and I was easily able to narrow down my selection to a handful of stones after I did my research on diamonds (which btw, I would highly recommend - it is pretty cool to know all these cool details about diamonds). The service (aside from Becca) was also very great. They were patient and helped me process my payment through my preferred method.

Becca was great answering any questions I had and providing photos and videos of the diamonds that I was interested in. Every diamond that they showed me was gorgeous and I ended up picking a 2.09ct from their precision lab. They held it for me with a $1k refundable deposit while we were discussing a custom ring. They were very patient with me as I changed the ring design a few times and worked with me until I was 100% happy with the design! After paying for the diamond and ring, it took a little over 4 weeks. It came with a Cherry Wood Ring Box, which is a little on the bigger side, and nice packaging, including all of the diamond certifications. I would highly recommend Whiteflash! The actual diamond/ Ideal-scope/ASET/and Actual Hearts images/videos of their vetted diamonds basically guarantee you'll get a high performance round diamond (if that's what you're going for)!

I contacted Michelle at Whitefish who had previously rendered excellent service to me in picking diamond earrings for my wife. Happily, Michelle was still there and happily she helped me immensely in sorting through diamond options and picking the right one. My wife was absolutely thrilled with the ring she got. The service from Whiteflash was outstanding with marvelous packaging and secure delivering. Can't recommend them strongly enough.
