Be My Valentine

“My birthday and Valentine’s Day are 10 days apart so to celebrate both occasions he once took me to a fancy restaurant, got me 10 pairs of shoes, a relaxing spa day, got my nails and hair done and took me to a nice lounge,” says Daishae’. “I always joke with him that he outdid himself and how I look forward to the following years festivities.”

The Perfect Pick

“My ring is very special to me because it has a little bit of both of our personalities put together,” says the bride-to-be. “It has diamonds all around it, which is more of my personality and a triple band that has diamonds on the top and bottom bands, and in the middle it has a band without diamonds, which represents Warren’s personality; he’s laid back, quiet. My ring is the perfect ring for me and him. We picked the ring together.”
