One of our wedding rings was not ordered the day we placed the order it was placed one month after only we figured it out it would have never been ordered then they told us lies on why it wasn’t ordered absolute disgrace considering we gave them nearly £4000 weeks got the second ring 4 days before the weeding then to top it all off they phoned myself to say that on the day we were picking up the ring there would be flowers and champagne for my fiancée as this wasn’t acceptable behaviour and in arriving to pick up the ring nothing to bee honest from start to finish it was horrible this is meant to be a happy time and it was awful from start to finish I would not recommend this shop to anyone

Choosing an engagement ring

From the choice of options to the members of staff, everything was fantastic. Mia was very knowledgeable, helpful and made the whole experience enjoyable. All the staff were genuinely interested and cared about what they were doing. Would recommend to anyone.

Extremely disappointing experience

Extremely disappointing experience – incomplete refund and wedding delays

We purchased an engagement ring in December 2024. Due to faults, the ring was returned for repair three separate times, with no successful resolution. A full refund was eventually agreed.

However, when the refund was processed, it was £300 less than the amount paid, with no explanation. This is despite the fact that a £100 refund and £100 voucher had already been given purely as goodwill compensation for the inconvenience — these were not part of the refund and should never have been deducted.

This situation has meant we now need to restart the process of finding a ring elsewhere and has directly delayed our wedding plans. The lack of transparency and poor handling of what is a significant, once-in-a-lifetime purchase has been incredibly frustrating.

I would not recommend based on our experience.

We can confirm a member of our team have reached out concerning this. We have explained after calculating the refunds issued along with their references, the correct remaining amount for refund differing from the £300 mentioned. Although we are happy this has been understood and the remaining funds actioned for refund now in process, we still apologise again for this oversight.

Picking the ring was a fabulous experience. Very helpful and made it feel very special.
Picking up wasn’t as great, it felt like the special they were trying to invoke wasn’t authentic/forced.

Disappointed with the service

I picked up my ring on the 20th Dec 25 and the lady that dealt with my husband and myself said to wear the ring to see if you like it and if not you have up to 30days for a refund. I thought the diamond was slightly too big and wanted to change it to a smaller one. I wore the ring 1 day to show my friends then returned it to the box before returning it for an exchange on the 27th Dec. The lady that dealt with us this time looked at it (with a magnifying glass)and said there was a few small scratches on the inside of the band and couldn't be returned. We are very disappointed with the service.
