My husband Riley and I started dating our junior year of high school and went on to date for four years. The proposal could not have been any more perfect, he took me to a field on his family farm, surrounded by fire flies, he got down on one knee and asked me to marry him.
The ring exceeded my expectations, It was exactly what I wanted. It never stops sparkling and I get compliments on it constantly. We have now been married for almost a year and I have a set of earrings, a pendant and a ring from Moissanite co. I couldn't imagine having anything else on my finger that is more brilliant, durable and beautiful.

An Engagement/Wedding story by Katie S. featuring ENR139
Daniel surprised me by asking me to marry him at the top of the hiking trail overlooking Mazinaw Lake while on a camping trip together. I’ve made so many amazing childhood memories camping at Bon Echo, and now we’ve made an amazing memory together.
As we were planning our wedding I knew immediately that I wanted a MoissaniteCo wedding band to go with my engagement ring. I wanted the rings to sit flush with one another, so I got in contact with a representative and they helped me with choosing the perfect band.
I first heard of Moissanite about 8 years ago when I was scrolling through Pinterest. I did some research and instantly fell in love with everything about Moissanite and knew that I would someday wear it on my finger!
When I told Daniel that I didn’t want a diamond, he thought I was crazy (because what girl doesn’t love diamonds??) and he didn’t like the idea of getting something so out of the norm. But diamonds, pearls, and expensive jewelry have never impressed me... lucky for him because Moissanite is 1/5th of the cost!
I LOVE my ring and get compliments on it everyday. I’m proud to own a Moissanite! Thank you @moissaniteco for making my beautiful rings!
An Just for fun story by Ashley W. featuring ENR169-OV
My husband and I have been together for nine years and married for eight. When we originally got married my grandfather had just passed away and I was left without any desire to continue planning a wedding. We originally planned to marry on Oct 20th, 2012 and my grandfather would walk me down the isle, when my grandfather passed away on July 8th, 2012 we opted to have a smaller ceremony for close family and friends on August 4th, 2012. It was beautiful! I know my grandfather was there in spirit. My original wedding set is a three stone emerald cut diamond engagement ring with princess cut diamonds in the band, with my wedding band and anniversary band being princess cut diamonds set within the band. I’ve always loved it but decided to keep it as more of a keepsake. My husband and I decided a new engagement ring and bands would be a perfect gift for our new life and family. I was overjoyed to receive my new rings from MoissaniteCo! They are high quality, which I learned from a different online retailer is not always guaranteed, and shine even brighter than my original set. Thank you MoissaniteCo!
An Engagement/Wedding story by Josh & Leigh featuring ENR190-F1-CU
Josh and I started our whirl wind romance/ tornado of happiness relationship when he was helping me at the store and I managed through trickery to get his number (my friend asked) that night we talked and texted for 7 hours, the next day we had a date that lasted 14 hours, the next night we had our first sleep over and first kiss. We’ve spent 2 nights apart since then and they were awful.
Soon after I started looking at rings, he was supposed to be asleep. I saw what would become my ring, being a huge fan of pride and prejudice the thought that went through my head was that it was very Darcy. I looked at others and they just weren’t stacking up, so I went back to the Darcy ring and as I’m admiring it I hear from behind me “send me the link for that” we had talked about marriage but only in the "this is the kind of relationship we want way." So I was joyously dumbfounded when not only was he not freaking out but he taking notes.
A few weeks later he actually proposed, very spontaneously, very sweetly. I didn’t actually realize at first that he was proposing, I thought he was talking about someday. But it was very us. We talked about getting the ring, we tried a few stores (wasn’t sure what size stone I wanted/did I want something other than a cushion) and again nothing was stacking up to the Darcy ring.
We decided that my quick love of that ring matched the tone of our relationship which was basically sometimes you just know.
He ordered it and told me that he wanted to redo his proposal with a little more fanfare.
The ring showed up and obviously I tried it on to make sure it fit but then he couldn’t stand the idea of not seeing on my finger and that’s where it stayed until it was time to put my wedding ring on.
An Engagement/Wedding story by Hayden H. featuring #ENG287
Andrea and I met in Bogotá, Colombia while I was serving a religious mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Her mother took care of me when I first arrived in the country by feeding me lunch every day for four months while I got used to the new culture, which allowed her mother and I develop a very close friendship.
I eventually left Bogotá and traveled to other parts of the country. In the two years of my travels, I only saw Andrea's family a few times when I returned to the capital city for large church meetings.
When I returned to Bogotá to end my religious mission and return to the United States, I decided to say goodbye to the family that had cared for me when I first arrived. Andrea's mother made me a special lunch and she gave me a letter from the whole family thanking me for my church service. We took a picture together and then I left to catch my flight home.
A few weeks after returning to the United States, I realized that a virus had corrupted all of the pictures on my camera, including the ones I had taken with Andrea's family. However, I remembered that Andrea had also taken the same photos with her cell phone. I found her on Facebook and asked her to share the photos we had taken that day. We started to talk every day, and kept in constant communication for a long time until we became very good friends over long distance.
Then, our love story began. I traveled to Colombia to visit her and we started dating. It was difficult for both of us to maintain our relationship over long distance, but over time our relationship grew stronger and stronger.
She managed to get a tourist visa to the United States and came to Utah to visit me six months later. There, she met my family and we spent enough time together to decide that we wanted to spend the rest of our lives together.
I wanted to buy a special engagement ring for Andrea, one that was unique like our relationship and I was able to find the perfect ring at MoissaniteCo. I bought it without consulting my fiance and couldn't wait to propose to her.
Three months later, she returned to the United States and we caught a bus to Salt Lake City, dressed in formal clothes. I told Andrea that we were going to Disney on Ice, but afterwards, she had no idea what was going to happen. We bumped into some friends "on accident" at the Salt Lake temple, and they handed over my guitar that they had brought with them. I sat down on a bench with Andrea, sang her a song that I had written for her, and asked her to spend the rest of her life with me. She was speechless, and couldn't stop looking at me and at the ring. She LOVED it!
We were later married on February 29, 2020. Today, Andrea's Moissanite engagement ring allows us to remember the great love we have for each other and that our love will last for time and eternity.
Thank you MoissaniteCo. for being part of our love story!
An Engagement/Wedding story by Joshua J. featuring ENR180-CU
My fiancé and I met when we were about 16 years old. I remember seeing her and thinking she was the most beautiful person I’ve ever met. It wasn’t until we were 18 that we started talking constantly. We were both going through hard times almost losing very close family members. We found comfort in each other’s friendship. I fell in love with her.
We had a bumpy start — as we were just kids. Since then, we’ve had our downs, but mostly ups. We’ve enjoyed life together, made millions of memories, and now we are looking forward to making more in our future to come. The day after our fifth year anniversary, I proposed. I had the ring for nearly four months before I asked. I wanted to make this engagement very special for her, but COVID continuously got in the way.
With the help of my family and her 5 sisters, we were finally able to pull it off!
She has been in love with MoissaniteCo for as long as I can remember, so there wasn’t even a thought of getting her ring from anywhere else. With the simplicity and ease of navigating the website, to the helpful customer service; I was able to find the most beautiful ring she absolutely deserves. We are looking forward to finding a matching band for her ring soon and possibly finding a band for myself. To anyone questioning whether or not to purchase from this company, stop questioning and just do it! You will not regret it!
Thank you MoissaniteCo for everything!
An Engagement/Wedding story by Aspen Rae featuring ENR171-F1-OV
My husband and I have been together since we were 18 and 19 years old, when we finally admitted to each other we had crushed over one another all throughout high school. We were dating for 7 years before my husband finally popped the question! I was on a trip for my birthday and was coming back the night of my birthday January 10th and called my (then boyfriend) to tell him I wanted to book a later flight that would have me land in the middle of the night January 11th. He said it was no problem and to stay longer! When I got home at 2am our entire house was decorated for my birthday, flowers, balloons, twinkle lights, chocolates. Then at our kitchen island was a letter, a 7 page letter, where at the end if it was the words “Will you marry me?” I turned around to the ring box that actually had a note inside that said “placeholder” LOL he knew I had been looking at MoissaniteCo and wanted me to pick my dream ring with me. We have now been married for 2 1/2 years and have a beautiful daughter (and a baby on the way ?) that was still the most incredible day and the most surprised I’ve ever been!
An Engagement/Wedding story by Elizabeth P. featuring ENR171
I loved how eco friendly Moissanites were and how absolutely beautiful they are so I knew I wanted a Moissanite instead of a diamond for my engagement and wedding rings. We went online and picked my engagement ring out together and later did the same for my wedding ring. They are absolutely beautiful and I wouldn’t want anything different!
My now husband and I met in 7th grade and are now in our first year of masters school. We have been friends for a very long time and we started dating right after high school. I knew very early on he was the one I wanted to marry. He is my best friend and is everything I wanted in a partner. I love having a Moissanite as the stone to represent our marriage!

I am absolutely satisfied with my purchase, I bought this for my girlfriend on her birthday in December and since then this pendant necklace has been the perfect accessory for every special occasion, as well as for everyday use. I love that it is simple and elegant at the same time, just what I was looking for. After many uses, the stone still looks fantastic just like the day I bought it. I would not hesitate to use this company for future purchases (engagement rings) and I would also very much recommend this company to any of my friends.
My only negative with my experience was that dealing with the website can be a bit tedious because of the variety of options, other websites are easier to navigate and help give a better visual of how the products looks with all the customized features, but having the patience to scroll through the options, will surely be rewarding by finding the perfect item for your loved one, I'm glad I did.
An Engagement/Wedding story by Bobby M. featuring WED507A
I purchased both the engagement ring and the wedding ring on January 12th 2012. I had hopes of giving the ring to Kathy my beloved, whom I had been dating for over two years. I was a lonely single father raising two children, after their mother had passed three and a half years earlier. I was hoping to wait till Valentines Day to purpose to Kathy at our favorite restaurant in downtown Morehead City,NC. I got a little overwhelmed and decided to purpose earlier, so my kids and myself, went to the restaurant on a cold January night, and purposed to her, and she accepted.
An Engagement/Wedding story by Aalia featuring SOL451
When my partner and I decided to get engaged, we knew we wanted to do some things a little differently and we're leaning towards a diamond alternative. After some research, we decided we wanted a Moissanite gem, and after some further research, decided to go with MoissaniteCo. The ring we chose is simple yet classic and the Moissanite gem is incredibly sparkly, especially in the sunlight.
After receiving the engagement ring, we were convinced that we also wanted a Moissanite band, which again we purchased from MoissaniteCo. Both rings together are absolutely stunning and we're so happy with our decision.
My partner proposed to me while we were setting up our Christmas tree in November of last year. We had several special ornaments we need to put up that he hid from me, and then handed them to me at the very end so I was already fairly emotional as I thought about the memories associated with them all. The very last ornament was one he bought, which said "Mr. and Mrs.". He got down on one knee and proposed. It's one of our most special moments. It was absolutely perfect.

An Engagement/Wedding story by Chloe featuring SOL279-CU
Nathan & I met outside of a café in rainy England. I saw him and literally could not help myself I had to talk to him. I asked him to coffee (I was shocked he said yes because I figured a guy that cute probably had a girlfriend). But since that day over a year ago, we have been inseparable. COVID made things really hard because I moved home to America and 5,000 miles is far away. But sure enough, I came back to England to visit him this past summer & he took me back to the hill that over looks the city, where he took me on our first date. That’s where he proposed and hell ya I said yes LOL. This guy has my heart. (Photographer @anabellabinksphotography)
An Just for fun story by Hannah C. featuring ENR600
After several years of trying for a second child, we were devastated when the pregnancy ended in a miscarriage. My wonderful husband suggested replacing my wedding ring that I had lost some time ago as a way to help me feel better. He has the best ideas!
The healing process has definitely been much more involved and taken more than just a beautiful piece of jewelry, but in more ways than one MoissaniteCo has helped us heal and rekindle some of the spark in our marriage of 12 years.
While the healing process is ongoing, I can look at my beautiful new ring and be reminded that I am loved, and of the love my husband has for me.
An Engagement/Wedding story by Rachel B. featuring ENR139-F1-OV
Rachel and Tony met in college and had a non-traditional relationship from the beginning. After becoming a family of three, Rachel and Tony knew it was time to take the next step in their relationship. As a social worker, Rachel knew that she wanted a conflict free ring and found the perfect ring at MoissaniteCo. After what felt like forever of hinting at Tony that it was time to put a ring on it, Tony went right to MoissaniteCo and ordered Rachel's dream ring.
Christmas Day, Tony and our son, Bennett, got down on one knee and asked Rachel for forever. Bennett was so excited to help propose to his Momma and is even more excited to help plan the wedding! We are beyond excited our family will finally be official, and we are so grateful MoissaniteCo got to be a part of our journey!

An Engagement/Wedding story by Helena featuring SOL447-OV
My fiancé and I have been together for almost 7 years and we are high school sweethearts! He took me to the place we would go on little hikes at when we first started dating. It was just us and he was just being so sweet. He asked for my phone so he could take a picture of me and then told me to turn around because it was right by the water. As I was turned around he put the phone down, got down on his knee, pulled out the ring and asked me to marry him. I bawled like a baby. But the ring was even more beautiful than I could have imagined! We get married September 2021! Thank you, MoissaniteCo. for the perfect ring!
My husband and I got engaged 5 years ago, married 4 years ago. He bought my dream ring at the time. Sadly, 4 years later I found out that rose gold sometimes contains nickel, which I’m highly allergic.
We began looking for other options and found that platinum was the best option, but I was scared I wouldn’t love another ring as much, but I was so wrong! I found MoissaniteCo from a google search and was crazy about the sparkle! Once I ordered, they shipped so quickly! I unfortunately gave the wrong ring size, completely my fault, they were so helpful and quick to assure me that they could resize it! I now have my beautiful sparkler back and I cannot stop looking at it! Great service and beautiful products!
(Wedding photos were done by a friend, not a professional!)
I recently purchased a 6-prong Round Moissanite Solitaire Pendant necklace for my fiance Wendy. Our wedding is coming up this year in May after postponing it twice because of COVID :(
It is finally approaching and this was the perfect gift to surprise her for Christmas matching her engagement ring perfectly. She was stunned at the quality, clarity, and brightness of the Moissanite gemstone! There is no doubt in my mind I will definitely be purchasing from MoissaniteCo.com in the future for her. Next up...pair of studded earrings!
I also want to commend their customer service. I have emailed back and forth with MoissanteCo.com several times. They are responsive and very helpful, especially with custom orders. They even made an exchange for a longer necklace a breeze! Highly recommend, A+++
An Engagement/Wedding story by Avonlea K. featuring ENR702-OV
Bradley and I met in September of 2019 during a gathering at a local whiskey bar and restaurant. I was one of the last people to arrive and there were only a few seats available at the table so I chose one of the last seats available and immediately noticed that the man sitting to my left had a shirt with the same school name that my Mom and Aunt attended in my hometown.
As it turned out both Bradley and I had grown up just a few miles from each other, and yet we're just meeting now in a new state and city for the first time as adults. We had probably passed each other a dozen times during our childhood. It was what I call “family at first sight”. We have been inseparable ever since.
Bradley is my best friend, and the most loving and supportive partner I could ever imagine. In February of 2020 Bradley and I traveled to our hometown to meet his parents, and it was during this trip that we first started thinking about an engagement and within a couple of months were looking at rings. Bradley proposed May 9th, 2020, which was one of the most incredible days of our lives.
An Engagement/Wedding story by Remi W. featuring SOL313
My husband and I have been married for 7 years and we purchased my engagement ring from MoissaniteCo in 2011! I love this ring but wanted an upgrade and of course, came back here! I would never get rid of my engagement ring as it holds sentimental value. My engagement ring still receives so many compliments after all this time. My new ring is in production right now and I can’t wait to have it! I’m getting the original unicorn ring I wanted all those years ago. Thank you for providing an alternative to mined diamonds. All of the fire and brilliance but without that super hefty price tag. ?
I don’t know where to begin outside of I will definitely be doing business with this company again! I'll start first with getting my fiancé’s engagement ring with MoissaniteCo.com a couple years ago. She LOVES it!! She asked me where I wanted my ring from, I told her from these guys, of course. So we did! Next gift, she turned 50 last month, I gave her a tennis bracelet from them. She loved it so much she bought me a men’s matching version of the bracelet. Just wow, love it! We will be back for more, thank you guys so much!
Faye and I have been together for over 3 years now and I knew early on I wanted to propose in the most special way I could.
It took a year of planning and a lot of help from MoissaniteCo, but eventually I had a beautifully crafted, custom-made rose gold ring with our initials subtly added to the design. I was so excited to propose and couldn’t wait to get down on one knee.
Fast forward a few months and there we are, in Finland, minus 30 degrees in the freezing snow, but gazing upon a serenely calm frozen lake, with the sun setting. It was that moment I chose to propose and Faye was overcome with emotion and joy. It couldn’t have been more perfect and the ring will forever be a symbol of that moment.
Faye is over the moon with the custom design and her friends are often commenting on its beauty.
Thank you MoissaniteCo for bringing the idea to life!

Chrissy and I have been together for almost 3 years. We each have 3 children and are very lucky all our kids get along nicely. We will now be a family and can't wait to start our lives together. We realized that home is when we are together and our children see how happy we are since the day we met on a blind date.
Thank you MoissaniteCo. for expediting the order to make the perfect proposal on a rainy night inside a greenhouse at Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square, PA. Trying to find a vintage ring was very difficult and MoissaniteCo. had an amazing selection to choose from. Chrissy absolutely loves the ring and we can't wait to start our lives together. Thank you for contributing to an unforgettable proposal.
An Engagement/Wedding story by Molly O. featuring ENR756-PEAR
Nick and I have known each other since we were kids and started dating at the very end of high school. Now, 10 years later, we've endured being long distance, earned multiple degrees, gotten jobs, moved across the state, purchased two houses, and done extensive renovation projects on both houses. After facing so many challenges together, we decided it's time to reflect on all that we've accomplished and begin looking forward to our next chapter.
We always wanted our marriage to be a joyous celebration of our life together, and we're so excited to finally take this step. We chose the ring together, and it was such a special experience for us. We then spent a long weekend in the mountains celebrating and enjoying quality time together. The ring is lovely, simple, and elegant and it is the perfect representation of the beautiful life we've built with each other.
An Engagement/Wedding story by Boston F. + Lauren K. featuring ENR600
Boston and Lauren connected on a dating app called Hinge in early 2019. They exchanged witty messages over the course of a week and a half and decided to meet up in person for the first time on February 19th, 2019. For Lauren, she knew as soon as she met Boston that he was different and that they would end up together. Boston was everything she had been looking for and more. On April 5th, Boston asked Lauren to be his girlfriend after wine tasting at Dobra Zemlija in Plymouth, CA. On July 4th, 2019 Boston said "I love you" and Lauren of course replied that she loved him too.
2020 brought on some unsure times but through it all they supported each other, worked through the frustrating mandates, and tried to make the most of their situation. On April 5th, 2020 they celebrated their one year anniversary by making homemade scones in the morning and homemade macaroons for an after dinner treat.
Throughout 2020 some exciting things happened for both Boston and Lauren! Boston started his credential and master's program at National University and Lauren earned her CTE Teaching Credential in Arts, Media, and Entertainment. They also celebrated their birthdays together with fun experiences. Lauren's family took Boston and Lauren to Tahoe for an early birthday retreat and Boston later took Lauren wine tasting at her parent's favorite winery, V. Sattui, on her birthday in July. Lauren took Boston indoor skydiving and out to a fancy dinner for his October birthday.
On December 5th, 2020 Boston completely surprised Lauren with her dream engagement. Boston had been waiting for the perfect time to pop the question and really wanted to surprise Lauren (who is so very hard to surprise!). After Lauren photographed a family session, she was getting photographed with Boston. Half way through their photoshoot Boston got down on one knee and asked her to be his wife. Lauren had no idea he was going to ask her to marry him and she of course said yes! Denise Apagar Photography was there to photograph the whole thing! They cannot wait to get married in 2021 and are hopeful that this next year will bring a lot more amazing memories.
