By the light of the moon

Exactly 4 months ago today, I was taken on an incredible adventure, consisting of secret love letters, beautiful blooms, candle lit paths and a seaside gumball machine.
Haha definitely not your typical proposal story! In true Nick style, he went above and beyond to create a magical evening I'll treasure for a lifetime.
You can read the full proposal story here, but today I'm thrilled to say that I finally finished my ring.

Designing my own engagement ring has definitely been the most challenging project I've worked on so far. With so many options and free rein, it was so difficult to decide what kind of piece I wanted to create. After a lot of deliberation I realised that whatever I created needed to be linked to our story. I wanted to design a piece that was truly unique to Nick and I, and so, inspired by the magical full moon that lit up my ocean proposal, I created two rings to represent the moon and it's reflection on the waves below.
I hand carved each ring, cast them in Australian gold and set them with beautiful clear diamonds. They are perfectly imperfect, as we all are, and they are a constant reminder of the love that went into making them and the magic that was the evening that Nick proposed.

In love and further inspired by this line from a children's poem Nick taught me, 
my ring will be the moon and his soft brushed wedding band will be the sand. 
 
"hand in hand, at the edge of the sand, they danced by the light of the moon"
