Azusa & Tim
– Your Story –
“Tim asked me for a dance on my first night there and the rest, as they say, is history!”

We reached out to Ingle & Rhode as it was essential for the diamond used in our engagement ring to be conflict free. We were even happier to find out that they only use platinum from recycled sources in order to try and minimise the environmental impacts of mining.
From the initial consultation to receiving our rings we were very impressed by Ingle & Rhode, we found that everyone involved along the way was professional yet very approachable. We used the bespoke design service and as you can imagine, deciding on an engagement ring you will wear everyday for the rest of your life was very daunting (though of course extremely exciting!). However, David and Hayley were extremely helpful and made sure that I was happy every step of the way. I am absolutely thrilled with both the final rings and I still often get compliments about them.

“He convinced me to go for a walk in the moonlight, i was then taken completely by surprise when he went down on one knee and popped the question.”

Tim and I met 9 years ago at a Ceroc dance class in London (a style of partner dancing similar to salsa); Tim asked me for a dance on my first night there and the rest, as they say, is history!
He proposed in March 2017 whilst we were on holiday in Cuba; we were on a whistle-stop tour of Havana and our plane was delayed on the way there, so we had less time in the city than planned. We had just gone for dinner and I wanted a few quiet minutes in the hotel before going out to the famous Club Tropicana show for the night. Tim kept insisting on going for a walk and I did wonder why he was being so persistent! Eventually he convinced me to go for a walk in the moonlight, I was then taken completely by surprise when he went down on one knee and popped the question.
