Mohonk Proposal

Mohonk Proposal

I made up a ''story'' that my friend at work had tickets for lunch at Mohonk ( http://www.mohonk.com ) and couldn''t use them. Well, it worked, she had no clue. Lunch was held in a large dining room at the hotel, ...couples seating was along the west perimeter with a full window view of the mountains, ...very nice. We had a ''close call'', ...when my manager''s friend (the Chef) approached our table to introduce himself and say hello. Thankfully he didn''t (prematurely) congratulate us, ...since I didn''t give her the ring until after lunch. I decided to do so when we were on the porch overlooking the lake. We were lucky enough that there wasn''t anyone else there, ...so as she was looking over the lake, I pulled the ring out, ...and I said, ...""well,...the real reason I brought you up here was to ask, ...will you marry me?"" She was surprised, ...and after asking, ""are you sure? : ) "", ...she did say yes...We pretty much spent the rest of the afternoon walking around the place; the new spa; the skating rink; the hotel, ...etc. That place is truely amazing. The weather was even relatively ''warm'' for December so it was nice to walk around outside as well. Thanks again for all your help, ...and of course she loved to ring too...

Great experience and huge thanks to Becca at Whiteflash for making things so stress-free and easy. Whiteflash was the first and only place I went to look for a ring and it could not have been a better experience. Becca made it super easy to understand everything and was extremely transparent throughout the whole process. My fiancée loves her ring and I absolutely recommend Becca and Whiteflash. They are the best!

I rarely write reviews — good or bad. However, Whiteflash truly deserves one, and in the best possible way. I’m very impressed. After doing my latest research, I learned that Whiteflash is regarded as one of the highest-rated online diamond retailers. Now, as a customer, I completely understand why and can personally attest to that reputation. I primarily worked with Becca and Jennifer — both GIA-accredited and both outstanding. [As a side note, the CEO, Debi, personally responded to my initial inquiry to help connect me with the right person (Becca). When does that ever happen? Especially for an engagement ring purchase, that level of involvement went a very long way with me. Thank you, Debi!] This is the second engagement ring I’ve purchased, and the second time I’ve used an online retailer. While my experience with the first (also reputable) company wasn’t bad, it felt transactional — I was just another name in a queue. My overall satisfaction was “okay” at best. Moreover, whenever there was a question, someone new always responded; communication did not feel cohesive. Whiteflash has been the complete opposite. From what I’ve seen, many of their team members are GIA-accredited, and I know Becca and Jennifer are. Having direct access to knowledgeable, non-commissioned experts truly matters to me, especially on a purchase this meaningful. I came in with a strong idea of the diamond and setting I wanted to explore, and Becca took the time to walk through the stone, the setting, pricing, other options in detail. She explained why she liked the stone, backing her opinions with qualifications — not sales talk. She also followed up consistently by both phone and email to answer every question I had. Even after the sale, the service didn’t stop. I left a message in Whiteflash’s chat late on a Friday night and received a direct phone call from Jennifer on Saturday morning to follow up. I never would have expected weekend outreach — especially after the purchase was complete. The ring itself is stunning (a Simon G. setting with an Expert Selection diamond), but what truly sets Whiteflash apart is the customer experience. Despite being a prominent company, I always felt valued — never like “just a one-time buyer.” In fact, the experience felt more like working with a high-end brick-and-mortar jeweler than an online retailer, which is impressive considering I live roughly 1,700 miles away. Going in, despite all the positive reviews I’d read, I assumed the high-quality product (i.e., the ring) would be the main strength, and that customer service might be the weak link. I was wrong. The customer experience is just as exceptional as the ring. Simply put, other online retailers don’t shine as bright as Whiteflash — by any metric. I will absolutely be a repeat customer. As for engagement rings, though? I’m very glad the final one I ever bought came from Whiteflash. I already know it’s the only one I’ll need.

I cannot say enough great things about working with Becca. From start to finish, she was incredibly transparent, knowledgeable, and genuinely focused on helping me make the right decision. Buying a diamond can be overwhelming, but Becca made the entire process feel clear, comfortable, and even exciting. She went above and beyond by providing detailed ASET/Idealscope images, photos, and videos of the selected diamond, which made a huge difference in understanding its quality and performance. Becca’s professionalism, responsiveness, and attention to detail were exceptional. Thanks to her guidance, I felt completely confident in my purchase and couldn’t be happier with the result. I would highly recommend Becca to anyone looking for expert advice, transparency, and an outstanding diamond-buying experience.
