The lovely folks at DeVries Jewelry were extremely helpful while creating my husband's wedding band. We had a bit of a unique situation on our hands, and they were attentive, patient, and understanding throughout it all.
We had another local jeweler custom-design my engagement ring. Shortly after being proposed to, our jeweler found out he had terminal cancer and quickly passed away. We were heart-broken and unsure of where to turn to next.
As a surprise to my husband, I asked his mother's permission to use his late father's wedding band to create a new one for him. She tearfully and joyfully agreed, and with this precious piece of jewelry in-hand, I walked into DeVries. After showing them the band and telling them my story, they were quick to recommend a few different options. They did the research for me beforehand and helped me find a solution that was perfect for what I needed, and my budget. I sincerely appreciated this, because a few other places I asked told me to just melt his dad's ring down and create something new. The folks at DeVries found a way to preserve the look of his father's ring while shaping it into something new and fitting for my husband. When I picked it up a few weeks later... I just wanted to cry! It was perfect.
Putting it on my husband's finger the day of our wedding was surreal. He is still so appreciative and in awe of what they did to his father's ring to make it "something old" AND "something new" for him. Thank you a million times over to DeVries Jewelry. We will come to you for all our future jewelry needs, and I will recommend you to every couple I know.
