Awesome. IMO engagement rings are so much more than a material object they tell a story. My parents played a big part in getting my wife's to me as well. The ring was bought in Chicago area (Arlington Heights) where my parents picked it up. They sent it to my brother in Florida to have the diamond set. He sent it to a guy in my unit at Ft Bragg who was home on leave who hand carried it back to me in Iraq via Italy and Kuwait. I then flew to German with it where my wife (then girlfriend soon to be fiancé) met me for a two week tour of Europe. She then wore it back to New York. I was grateful for all the help; I'm sure your son will be as well. Great job.

Very original ring. I asked my wife to choose from 2, both pretty serious rings, she chose the 2 diamonds and 2 rubies on WG, sorry ain't got pics and it is with other things in the bank.
Congrats for their engagement |

Ours was nowhere near the complexity and coordination of your experience. Basically we received parameters of the ring type/size, setting, diamond size, etc., from our son all via "snail mail" and mom and I sort of upgraded the spec a bit.. :). Thank you again Jes. You have a great story to pass along. |
