To be honest, I have seen some pretty tacky lighted engagement ring boxes so the idea of using one for a marriage proposal wasn’t my first recommendation. However, I must admit after seeing Bling The Ring take a classy approach to transform lighted ring boxes I changed my mind (a least in regards to one of their boxes). The idea stemmed from Jay who wanted to propose with a lighted ring box and when the moment came…it didn’t go exactly as he planned. You can read his proposal story below!

“I started this business because when I decided to propose, I went on a quest to find the perfect lighted ring box. I looked. And looked. And LOOKED. WOW.. how hard is it to find a measly ring box that LIGHTS UP?? All I wanted was a NON-CHEAP looking box and for the ring to be visible when I popped the question. I was planning on proposing in a dim lighted restaurant and needed the help of some light to accentuate the ring. I finally located a decent one on Amazon. When it finally arrived, I was pleased enough and couldn’t contain my excitement. I placed the ring in the box and must have opened it at least three times a day for a month just to look at it, making sure the light was working, and trying to guess my girlfriend’s reaction.

Everything seemed ready. And I was about to demonstrate the perfect proposal.. or so I thought. During the key moment of presenting the ring, the stinking box didn’t light up. The batteries were stupidly attached to the velvet inset, and it had fallen when I placed the ring box inside a bowl of rose petals.”

Guys if you plan on popping the question in a dim, candlelit atmosphere this could be a perfect touch. Happy proposing!

Love,
