After surprising Mary with a luxurious stay at Le Bristol in Paris, our engagement ring shopping adventure began. The next morning, we indulged in a room service breakfast before heading to Spa Le Bristol by La Mer for a relaxing manicure to prepare for the day ahead.
With appointments at five different jewelry shops, I had carefully curated a selection of places for Mary to try on vintage engagement rings. Our first stop was at Osprey on Rue Saint-Honoré, a quaint boutique known for its wide variety of gemstones. Despite the beautiful rings presented to us, Mary was wary of the raised stone settings that could potentially snag on her clothes.
Our journey continued to Douze in Saint Germain, a chic shop known for its tasteful and elegant pieces. Mary’s eyes lit up as she perused the collection, feeling a connection to the simple yet stylish designs that resonated with her personal taste.
As we left Douze with a sense of optimism, I couldn’t help but feel excited for what the rest of the day had in store for us. The search for the perfect engagement ring was well underway, and with each new shop we visited, I could sense that we were getting closer to finding “the one.”
Stay tuned for the next chapter in our Parisian engagement ring shopping adventure, where we delve deeper into the world of vintage and designer jewelry in the City of Love. Follow along as we explore more hidden gems and uncover the ring that will symbolize our love and commitment for years to come.
