"After reading about Jennifer in Down East Magazine, I knew right where to go for a unique engagement ring using Maine beach stones collected by my girlfriend and me. I wanted something sentimental to the both of us, not just a store-bought diamond ring. Working with Jennifer was very organic. She made the process so easy and in the end we incorporated a family diamond into the design after all. We love telling the story and having a piece that is so unique, full of character, and means so much to the both of us. I couldn't be more happy working with Jennifer and the process of having her make a one-of-a-kind beach stone engagement ring."

More newlyweds are saying, "I won't" when considering traditional weddings. Trends are moving towards the less wasteful and over-the-top celebration out of necessity for some, and out of a lifestyle choice for others. Smaller guest lists, closer locations, and strong "buy local" campaigns have been a big theme in the current wedding industry. Many couples are considering a diamond alternative for engagement rings and are leaning towards non-traditional semi-precious gems and... beach stones. Some of my favorite custom work has been working with couples on their engagement and wedding rings. Looking for the perfectly tumbled stone on a favorite Maine beach becomes as important a story as the moment when the big question is asked... and sometimes they happen simultaneously. A found rock truly stands the test of time.
My wedding collection also includes: bride's necklace and earrings, groom's shirt studs, bridal party bracelets, groomsmen's cuff links, and in-law gifts. Check it out here.
