Month: December 2013

Leighton Meester & Adam Brody Engaged

When worlds collide! Gossip Girl’s Leighton Meester and Adam Brody from The OC are engaged!

The newly engaged couple has been friends for several years and has worked together on the 2011 film “The Oranges.” Adam recently proposed after a year of dating.

Leighton is a bit of a fashionista, but we think she looks incredible in classic looks like the little black dress in our featured photo, so we’d love to see her in a movie-star-worthy design like our Ava Engagement Ring.

Leighton and Adam are absolutely adorable together, and we wish them all the best in the future!

ask jeff cooper: holiday proposal ideas

December is the most popular month for engagements, so what are you waiting for?

If you decide to get engaged for the holidays, congratulations! Here are a few ideas to inspire you.

The Knot has a list of cute proposal ideas here. And right here are 50 more. Still not sure how to go about it?

The most important part of a great proposal is finding a way to make it special and exciting, whatever that means to you and your love.

You don’t need a gimmick, but you’ll tell the story again and again, so think it over before you pop the question. You’ll know you have the right idea when it’s completely personal and unique to you and your partner.

Prince William popped the question on African Safari. Kanye West rented out a stadium. You might return to the place where you first met, or do what one of our customers did, and attach the ring to a beloved pet.

Whatever you decide, have a ring picked out, wait for the right moment, and feel free to be as over the top romantic as you want.

Good luck! And don’t forget to share your proposals with us, we love them!
