I have received the paperwork and am in the process of getting insurance lined up for the ring. I just wanted to let you all know that everything went perfectly.
For over two months I was planning on proposing on my birthday this past Dec. 21st. All of our family and friends were in on it. My fiancée, Meredith, was told that there would be a small gathering at my parents’ house for my birthday. However when we walked in, fifty of our friends and family were there to see me drop to a knee and ask. Luckily for me she said yes and we ending up having a lavishly catered party that was a lot of fun for everyone. Meredith was completely surprised and has since been raving about her ring. It is such a superior stone that she no longer feels comfortable comparing with her friends rings as hers just outshines and out performs all others so much. I dare not say what a great deal I got for it for fear of breaking up several marriages!
Many people were very impressed with the process and amount of research I went into to find the stone. As I am the first of my college friends to get engaged, I know I will get all kinds of questions when it comes their time. Be assured that I will make them look at www.goodoldgold.com in their search for a ring. The lighted box was also a hit. I think that was just a great touch and everyone at the event had never even heard of such a thing. It was a truly magical night that will always be remembered when looking at the beauty of the stone that I bought. You're service and response time was stellar. And although I shall pray to never have to buy another engagement ring again, I shall always recommend you guys to anyone who asks or cares to listen! Thanks for everything; it really couldn't have been more perfect!
