Elle & Chris

"Last year while visiting the East coast we stopped off in New York City. On a scorching hot summer's day we took a bike ride around Central Park to soak up the atmosphere. After nearly ten years together, Chris got down on one knee and asked if I would marry him! He hadn't chosen a ring as he decided it would be something fun to do during our visit to New York. As soon as I saw the ring in a small boutique, I knew it was the one. Described 'perfectly imperfect' with its rough cut diamonds and dazzling sapphire, we bought it there and then. When researching the designer, I was delighted to find that the gold was recycled and stones responsibly-sourced.

The second part of the project was to choose a wedding ring and of course it too had to come from Jennifer. Living in the UK did not pose a problem. After several emails back and forth Jennifer and her team sent me some photos of potential options that would complement my engagement ring. The decision was easy and I went for the Blockette baguette opaque diamond ring. It took little over a month to be made, beautifully packaged like a gift and delivered over the pond. It fits perfectly and I can't wait until the wedding so that I can wear it every day and show it off to the world. Thank you!"
