Emma & Richard's Love Story
We recently had the pleasure of assisting beautiful couple, Emma & Richard, with creating their new forever engagement ring, The Emma Ring.
Read on for an exclusive interview, which details their special proposal journey and experience with our Morgan & Co Bespoke Team.
Was there anything in particular that drew you to work with us?
"After I met you both at the Sunshine Coast wedding expo and we instantly got chatting, I felt so comfortable straight away and knew I wanted to work with you to design our wedding bands. I told Rich about it as soon as i got home that day and he loved that you were based in Buderim (his home town) and that you instantly made a good first impression - a few months later we started working together and sure enough we designed two beautiful wedding bands and re-created my most perfect engagement ring! We loved every moment of the design process and working with you both!"
Which ring did you choose/design for your forever piece, and why?
"Rich decided to work with you both to design his custom wedding band - a signet ring with one of his Grandmother's diamonds placed on one side. He wanted something a little different while also being practical for everyday wear, as well as including a sentimental touch. I decided to redesign my engagement ring with a beautiful oval diamond set east-to-west as I loved that it was still simple and classic while also including a unique touch. I decided to go with a plain cigar band as my wedding band and absolutely love the way it sits so perfectly with my engagement ring."
What was your favourite part of your Morgan & Co experience?
"Spending hours in the studio chatting about everything and anything! Lots of laughter, and learning so much about ring design!"
Tell us a little bit about your proposal.
"Rich originally proposed with my Grandmother's engagement ring which is something I also wanted and absolutely love to this day. I'd always said I wanted him to propose to me either in my favourite place (Barnes Pond in London), or on a random Wednesday night in the kitchen when I least expected it! So with my incredibly high expectations in mind, he decided to visit Barnes Pond on a trip to Europe a few months prior to the proposal, and get a few sweet little videos. He put together a slideshow and proposed to me at home on a Thursday while we enjoyed our morning coffee (which he confidently told me was technically a Wednesday night in London). So somehow he managed to check off all aspects of my proposal list and still keep it all a surprise! It was absolutely perfect!"
Emma's 5 Star Review —
"Where do I even begin! ❤️ my fiancé and I both had our wedding bands designed by Morgan & Laura at Morgan & Co., and we couldn’t be happier with our experience! During the wedding band process, we decided to redesign my engagement ring as well. The girls made this process so incredible and special, and we had the best time coming up with a design that was so unique to me and my style. Between hours long chats at the studio, having the girls teach us so much about diamonds and choosing the perfect one, receiving my designs back and making sure they were exactly what I wanted, to receiving the ring of my dreams and creating wonderful friendships - I couldn’t be happier with the entire process! Thank you Morgan and Laura for your incredible knowledge and expertise, we loved every minute of working with you both ❤️"
