Here at TLC folks LOVE to share their stories of the moments that they fell in love or how their engagement unfolded. We think the stories are cool and you might just like to hear about them too, so we are sharing them!

Thanks to everyone who has submitted their stories! If you would like to share your story too, email us!



Here is Alison’s Engagement Story:

“Hi there, saw your interview with Megan and thought you may enjoy my story.

I proposed to my hubby via phone. We lived together, but I decided while on my way to a friend’s house I wanted to marry him.

Being the compulsive person I am, I called him and told him (yes, told him) that I wanted to get married. We booked our venue the next day.

As for our wedding rings, we made them ourselves at (https://www.thedevilsworkshop.ca/workshops_weddingbandworkshop.shtml). I made his, he made mine. We had them hand-engraved.

Thanks for the taking the time to read our story :)

Enjoyable Proposals - Matt & Steph’s Story

Everyone LOVES sharing their engagement and wedding stories with us! We get pretty excited about these special moments and we want to share them with you! Here’s a letter we got a little while back (sorry! we’re catching up in the blog-o-sphere) from a couple who become engaged in England with a TLC ring. It’s a pretty cool story and we know you’ll love it too!

Here is Matt and Steph’s Engagement Story:

“Dear Turtle Love Committee,

Having bought a blue topaz Kennebunk ring from you (and my fiancee having loved it), we thought we’d share our engagement story.

Our story was featured on the front page of a local newspaper in Bath, England (see image below). We came to England to study abroad, and I proposed to Steph in the independent cinema by having the staff show a short film I made myself, containing photos and video the two of us took over the past 12 months here in England, before giving her the ring (I’ve attached a screen shot of the question).

Matt and Steph's Engagement

We both love the Kennebunk ring (and I’m excited to get my wedding band from Turtle Love), and we thought you might be interested in hearing our story.
Thanks very much!

With love,

Matt and Steph”
