My daughter is engaged with a Beautiful Brian Gavin Diamond!

[Maisie]

My daughter's boyfriend (now fiance!) asked me to help him find the perfect engagement ring for my daughter. Of course I turned to Brian Gavin Diamonds as I have been a customer of theirs for years.

Mark is still at university so he was on a budget. Lesley found a beautiful .53ct J, Si1 Brian Gavin Signature diamond for him to look at. He loved that stone so then we had to search for a setting. I picked out a few that fitted Ashleigh's description of her ideal ring. The setting Mark chose is white gold and has two beautiful suprise diamonds on the sides.

The proposal was so lovely. Mark lives over 250 miles from us. They are going away to Nice at the weekend so Ashleigh thought that she wouldn't see him till then. Without her knowing he drove down yesterday to surprise her. I took Ash out for dinner last night to her favourite restaurant. She had no idea that Mark was going to turn up and propose! Her face was a picture!

Here are some photos. I'm losing my skill at photographing diamonds! I gave it my best shot though Her ring size is 6.75

Oh Maisie, this is so wonderful on so many levels! Its wonderful to see two people in love! Its great that Mark had guidance from such an expert and had the confidence of knowing that Ashleigh would be happy as a result of your guidance. Finally, how many stories do you hear where the future MIL played such a major part in the actual proposal?!! It sounds like you are all really close - you must be an awesome Mom! Congratulations, I am so happy for all of you!

Re: My daughter is engaged with a Beautiful Brian Gavin Diam

Just wanted to ad:

Ashleigh!! You are a very lucky young lady to have Maisie (you know her by her real name, "mom"!) for a mother - she's so supportive, knowledgeable, down to earth, intelligent and a very warm and caring human being! She's an asset on PS and we are glad to have her! Enjoy your engagement and take good care of the new MoB!!

Re: My daughter is engaged with a Beautiful Brian Gavin Diam

Wow - beautiful ring and proposal! Congrats all around!!

Re: My daughter is engaged with a Beautiful Brian Gavin Diam

Thank you so much everyone for sharing in our joy and excitement. Mark is exactly the person I would have chosen for my daughter. He treats her like a princess! I know it might seem odd, the future mother in law helping with the proposal, but I was so thrilled that Mark trusted me enough to let me help. Seeing my daughter this happy and with her beautiful diamond makes me very happy.
