Ji!!!

I hope all is well my friend. I just wanted to let you know that I gave my girlfriend that beautiful ring last weekend in Ottawa and well...she said no?! No, just kidding, she is absolutely blown away by how beautiful the ring is, as are many jealous friends and family. I actually caught my mom looking down at her ring with an “I wish mine looked like that” expression on her face.  

I just want to thank you again for all your help in the whole process from start to finish. You were the only shop that I visited where I felt totally comfortable. You weren’t trying to push the most expensive rings on my girlfriend and I and you genuinely cared about finding the perfect ring for her that also met my price range and I thank you for that. The fact that you are also so knowledgeable on the subject, I really felt comfortable putting all my trust in you, plus you had that little pug there backing you up too.

Anyways, thanks again. She can’t take her eyes off of the ring, I guess we will be seeing you soon for wedding bands.

It was a pleasure to work with Ji and the staff at Engage Diamond Studio. I experienced honesty, integrity, patience and service that exceeded my high expectations. I will continue to do business with Engage and I recommend them without hesitation.

Hi Ji,

Sorry that this mail comes a bit late, but I wanted you to know that my new fiancée loved the ring.  I took her out to the top of a mountain on a rainy day near my hometown in northern Ontario and when we got to the promontory overlooking lake Superior, I popped the question on bended knee.  Her eyes were awash in tears when she said yes and the rest is history :)

Thanks a lot for all your help and expertise in selecting the stone and setting.  It's truly a brilliant piece of work.

Regards,
Sean K. from Toronto, ON

My now fiance and I took a trip to Italy last Fall, in which I was surprised with a beautiful diamond ring! I mean, I was surprised with a  romantic marriage proposal on the coast of the Italian Riviera!

I later found out that Ji and my fiance spent months designing and redesigning the ring and awaiting for the perfectly cut diamond for it. Instead of trying to make a quick sale, Ji spent many hours educating my fiance about diamonds and rings as he understood the importance of making his clients be part of a working relationship.

When I finally met the man who helped my dream ring become a reality, I could tell that Ji's honesty, knowledge and genuine heart were poured into his work with each and every client.

I feel relieved knowing that I can consult Ji anytime if and when I have any concerns about the ring. So, girls trust in Ji's expertise, meticulous work and work ethic to help you get the ring you want! This goes for you too boys!

Sincerely,
Yoon L. from Toronto, ON

It has been a pleasure to work with Ji.  From creative conception to completion, the Engage Team really helped with all their experience and options.  They took the most basic sketches, and turned them into mock-ups, which help me visualize the final product.  

The most important to me, was the personal service that was offered by Engage. I wanted to ensure the diamond and setting reflected my fiance’s personality and taste – a seemingly simple task, but trust me, a tall order to fulfill when it comes down to it.  =)

Ji and team helped out tremendously.  I would refer Engage to any friend.

Cheers,
Jason T. from Toronto, ON

We first heard about Engage Diamond Studio on the internet so we went into the shop for a quick look. Straight away we got an excellent feel for the place both in terms of their selection of rings on display but also their customer service. We did not know much about diamonds and purchasing rings but Ji took us through a quick tutorial which really helped us to better understand our options and eventually choose a ring we are both very happy with. I would recommend Engage Diamond Studio to anyone!!

Ian R. from Toronto, ON

I would like to thank Ji for making the process of finding an engagement ring a very smooth one.  Even though I did not know a lot about diamonds, Ji took the time and patience to teach me and give me the necessary knowledge to pick out the perfect engagement ring for my fiancée.

Not surprisingly, my fiancée loved her engagement ring and we plan to go back to Engage to get our wedding bands.

I would like to thank Engage again for making my first diamond experience a pleasant one.

Vincent C. from Toronto, ON

With an eye for detail, words of wisdom, open display cases and a conscientious effort to listen to my needs, Engage Diamond Studio touched all of my senses as I walked away with the perfect engagement ring. From the moment I crossed the threshold of the studio, they catered to my budget and aesthetic desires. Not once did I feel pressure to change my vision for something they were trying to push. But, they did offer their much-appreciated advice when I hit a directional impasse. And everything they said checked out – I was never led astray.They went out of their way to ensure I knew what was happening at every step during the process - I walked away as educated about diamonds and the ring as they were! Their role as educators only heightened my trust in them and allowed me to relax and enjoy this exciting time.The result? A stress-free process at Engage that led to a beautiful, custom-made ring that my fiancée loves.

Beyond impressed. Thanks!

Travis P. from Toronto, ON

I’d like to thank Ji for all his help in making the perfect engagement ring for my fiancé. His knowledge, personal attention, and hospitality at each visit made buying the ring easy and worry-free. My fiancé loved her engagement ring so we both knew that we’d be back again to buy our wedding bands. Ji and his staff are all absolutely first-rate.

Frank K. from Toronto, ON

The team at Engage did a fantastic job with my engagement ring. Ji was very pleasant and showed great hospitality by offering me a drink on every visit I made!!

He showed lots of patience and demonstrated a great deal of expertise. When making such a big investment it helps to know you have such a great team helping you every step of the  way. We will be returning to Engage when it's time to choose our wedding bands.

Thanks

From the start, the process of finding my engagement ring was rather Unconventional. Due to circumstances, my fiancé sent me on my merry way of selecting my own ring. Now like most women, I had already begun looking for the perfect ring even before he asked! So with this said I had some ideas as to what kind of Ring I wanted.

I looked high and low and came up with a few selections. Unfortunately the pieces that I really liked were Outrageously inflated and above our budget. So I continued looking around in hopes to find something less expensive, but to no avail. That’s when I came across Engage Diamond Studio!  

I marched my way into the studio, where both Ed and Ji made me feel comfortable. And the process of narrowing down my selections begun. Ji was extremely patient with me as I continued to inundate him with various photos of styles I liked over a period of time. He helped to accommodate my likings with our budget, and assisted me in selecting the Perfect Ring!

As my ring was being finished, Ji assured me it was coming along beautifully, but I was not prepared for how Stunning the finished piece looked! Everyone who has seen the ring absolutely loves it, but not more than ME!!!

Thanks For your help and patience Ji. Much appreciated!!

Josephine H. from San José, CA

I looked everywhere for the perfect engagement ring. Since I was on a limited budget and time, I wanted to get the most for my money. When I finished searching, Engage Diamonds surpassed every diamond studio I had visited. Their selection and prices were the most competitive. They gave me a complete education on diamonds and worked with me to match what I had envisioned as my perfect engagement ring.  There was no pressure and most of all, my fiancee loved it!

Joseph P. from Toronto, ON

If there’s one person who can create complexity, it’s me!

From the moment I walked in, I was a little hysterical with the whole idea of getting engaged.  It all started by trying to create a “one of a kind design”. Ji at Engage Diamond Studio put me at ease immediately by assuring me he would be able to create whatever I imagined. Ji took his time educating me on everything I needed to know about diamonds and he worked with me to perfect my design.

Although my idea was a little extravagant there was a budget to be met and Ji successfully made it happen.

The very relaxed environment at Engage Diamond Studio and both Ji & Ed, allowed me take deep breaths and bring it down a notch so I could think rationally.  The “no rush” appointment was great. Ji took out his pencil and worked with me to draft out and understand exactly what it was that I was trying to achieve in design.

Ji made a wax model of the ring to show me a preliminary cast of what the ring would look like. Even with the wax however, it was still difficult for me to envision how the ring was going to turn out because there were many little diamonds involved with intricate settings. Ji then had the capacity to produce digital drawings (through CAD) to give me a precise virtual look of what the final creation would look like.  I was satisfied and Engage Diamonds got the ok to go ahead.

Nothing prepared me for what I saw next. When they told me the ring came out beautifully...they lied!  It was absolutely Spectacular!

I was in awe and the moments of silence were followed with nothing but an ear-to-ear smile on my face and a firm handshake to show Engage Diamonds exactly how I felt.

Ji’s diamond knowledge, expertise, taste and craftsmanship were accurate and consistent throughout. After my experience with Ji & Ed at Engage Diamond Studio, I referred my brother, my long time friend and a colleague from work who have all been shopping around for an engagement ring as well and it’s no surprise that they all ended up with a ring from Engage Diamond Studio.

Thank You Engage Diamond Studio.

Jeff M. from Toronto, ON

Hi Ji,

This is just a quick message to say hi and to thank you for all your help in designing and making the perfect engagement ring for my fiancee.

The ring you helped make was a huge hit... everyone loved it!! The proposal in South Africa, went really well... it took her by surprise and she said yes at least a dozen times. I can't thank you enough for all your help and patience and honesty... it meant a great deal to me. While hunting for the best ring I met some interesting characters along the way who weren't always very honest... but it was a huge blessing and answer to prayer hearing your ad on WDCX and coming into your studio. I couldn't have asked for a better person and place to help design the best ring for my fiancee.

Thanks again for everything. I'd love to come and shop for wedding bands also at Engage Diamond Studio. Thanks again for everything!

James V. from Toronto, ON

The guys at Engage Diamond Studio were great! Ji went out of his way to make me feel comfortable throughout the entire process, from beginning to end. He kept me informed and up to date with everything that was going on. Ji knew exactly what I wanted and created a beautiful ring for my fiancee. The tears of joy on her face were priceless! Thank you for everything Ji! You guys did a great job!

Malcolm M. from Toronto, ON

Understanding the importance of buying the "perfect" engagment ring, I knew that it was an important decision and that the ring for my wife-to-be needed to be PERFECT. So I did a lot of searching going from store to store in malls, speciality stores, and even private jewelers. Going from place to place I was given all these terms I was unfamiliar with VS1,...VVS1?!?! I had no idea what the jewelers were speaking of. So I decided to do some online research. I read some great reviews about Engage Diamond Studio and decided to give them a try. I got there and felt at ease - a very laid back atmosphere where I didn't feel pressured. And I was walked through the process of finding a good diamond and the terms like VS1 became clear. Ji, my diamond consultant, was more than willing to take out the time to help me find the "perfect" ring. He customized my ring just the way i wanted and really took out the time to make sure it was "perfect". I ended up with the "perfect" ring at a "perfect" price - and moreover now have the "perfect" wife.

Gary C. from Toronto, ON

I had a general idea of the type of diamond and the setting design that I wanted. With this in mind, I commenced a long and arduous journey to well over a dozen retailers. When I visited these other stores, I either did not find the diamond that I wanted, they could not design the setting that I liked, and/or I simply had a very poor connection with the salesperson that I was dealing with. I then discovered Engage Diamonds really by serendipity after deciding to look at Toronto.com one day. I called Engage Diamonds and spoke to Ed, who was by far the friendliest and most laid-back of all the retailers that I contacted - and that was the impression that I got just by telephone! After visiting the showroom, Ed and I had a very frank and productive dialogue. While in the showroom, I found the exact setting design that I was looking for!

The combination of finding my design and my discussion with Ed made me confident that Engage Diamonds would be able to design the ring that I wanted. After I received the finished ring, I was extremely pleased with the work of Engage Diamonds!! The ring looked exactly how I envisioned it would.

Ed's demeanor was extremely pleasant and his price was VERY competitive. An engagement ring is one of the most important purchases that a man will make in his life and I'm very happy that I chose Engage Diamonds to make the engagement ring for my fiancé. Needless to say, my fiancé loves the ring!!!

Dale M. from Toronto, ON

Before finally deciding on Engage Diamonds, I had shopped around at many different jewelers that specialized on diamonds. At each of these jewelers I never felt content, their price was inflated, their quality was poor, their explanations were confusing, or I felt I couldn’t trust their character. I simply could not find any peace of mind. And when you’re spending money trying to find the perfect diamond for the perfect woman, peace of mind is of significant importance.

That was until I found Engage Diamonds. At Engage Diamonds they took the time to genuinely listen to what I wanted and they properly and thoroughly educated me. They didn’t place any pressure on me to purchase anything either, they’re goal was to satisfy my needs, and not their own. They gained my trust and confidence with their courtesy, attentiveness, outstanding customer service, selflessness, product expertise, and backed it all up with the quality of their diamonds. That is the definition of peace of mind.

From choosing the perfect diamond engagement ring for my wife to selecting our perfect custom wedding bands, Engage Diamonds made this a memorable experience.

When it comes to diamonds, we simply trust no other. You can ask my wife, but you’ll have to stop her from gazing at her engagement ring and wedding band first.

Linden K. from Toronto, ON

I can honestly say that I could not have been happier going with any other company than Engage Diamond Studio for my wife's (fiancée at the time) engagement ring. They helped me find a ring that I was impressed with in more than one way. With some companies, I saw rings that I liked, but the prices were very unreasonable. With other companies, they didn't have much of a selection. With Engage Diamond Studio, I was able to get the best of both worlds!

As well, the way in which people treat you can make a world of difference in your jewellry investment. You will not find a more courtious, friendly, professional, and efficient staff in any other. That alone made my experience with them worth it.

Throughout the whole process of purchasing my wife's ring, and eventually both our wedding bands as a result, everything was made easy, simple, and far exceeded my expectations of what I was able to purchase. As far as I'm concerned, there is no other jewelry company that can offer what Engage Diamond Studio did!

Impressed Customer.

Anthony C. from Toronto, ON

Even before my boyfriend (now my husband) asked me to marry him, I had been looking at engagement rings - hey a girl has to be prepared! I had done quite a bit of research on websites or walk-ins at jewellery stores and narrowed the search to something "antique looking". When we got serious enough to discuss marriage I continued to do my own research as I was of the view that although my boyfriend had great taste, I was the one who would be wearing it for the rest of my life.

Enter Ed..... Ed was a referral from not only a girlfriend but my sister as well. I made the initial contact with Ed and felt really good after our conversation. He suggested that my boyfriend and I come in for a consultation. Between our conversation and consultation, I bombarded Ed with emails of rings from several sites that I was researching. He was very patient and knowledgeable. At our meeting Ed was very straight forward and to the point. He knew our financial situation, made suggestions to get the best bang for our buck, cleared up any questions we had about the 4 C's and just how important each factor was.

Out of the blue, my boyfriend and I spotted a ring at a jewellery website. I was sold, it was the ring that I had been looking for, dreaming and salivating about. However, the price was out of our budget and we were a bit suspicious about the pricing and the grading of the stone. I called Ed and told him where we had seen it. Ed took time out of his busy schedule to make inquiries about the ring. Now that's dedication! And as we had suspected, the price was inflated.

Ed did his own research and assured us that he could build the ring within our budget. After that call, the business of the ring was between my boyfriend and Ed. I didn't see the finished product until he proposed.

Ladies, if you see someone walking down the street with a satisfied smile and their hand held extremely high, it's probably me. Words cannot describe my ring or how it makes me feel. From the grocery store, the shopping mall, the gym even a job interview, I get comments. Everyone is wowed by how spectacular it looks. My girlfriends continually tease me about how my husband went Hollywood on me....... Hollywood here I come!

Well done Ed!
