Summer Proposal Stories: How Keyzar Made the Moment Perfect
Summer is a season of warmth, sunshine, and unforgettable memories. It’s also a time when love blossoms in the air, and for many couples, it’s the perfect moment to take the next step in their relationship. At Keyzar, we’ve had the privilege of being part of countless summer proposals, each one as unique and special as the couples themselves. Today, we’re excited to share five of these heartwarming stories with you—stories filled with surprise, joy, and of course, a beautiful Keyzar engagement ring.
Shea & Josh Schmidt
Shea and Josh's proposal was a sun-soaked dream at their favorite Laguna beach. As they strolled hand in hand toward a secluded spot, the warm sand beneath their feet and the ocean breeze playing with their hair, Shea caught sight of a beautifully arranged picnic. The spread looked delicious, but it was the sight of the Keyzar box that made her heart skip a beat. In that moment, as the golden sun dipped low on the horizon, she knew this was it.
When Josh knelt before her, the world seemed to stand still, bathed in the soft hues of the setting sun. With a smile that lit up the evening, Shea joyfully exclaimed, “Yes!” as he presented her with The Lia—a stunning 2.5 carat oval center stone, set in a three-stone design. The ring’s opulent diamond accents and rounded side stones added even more brilliance to the already magical moment.
For Shea, the ring was the perfect complement to their sun-drenched day. Reflecting on the proposal, she later said, “The whole day was filled with so much love, celebration, and excitement, and the ring was so worth the wait.” That summer evening had brought them a love that would last a lifetime, and the ring was a shimmering reminder of the day their forever began.
Becca & Dylan Bohinski
When Dylan was on leave from the military, he and Becca took a leisurely stroll on the beach. For awhile they walked along, reveling in brilliant sun and gentle roar of the surf. Then he stopped on a serene stretch of sand and faced her. It was a moment of pure romance—just the two of them, the ocean’s melody, and a ring that would forever symbolize their enduring love.
That ring, The Penelope with a 2 carat emerald-cut center stone, was exactly what Becca had always dreamed of. As she gazed at it and proclaimed, “Yes!” the slender design, with its six pave-set accents and delicate band, offered a touch of elegance and sophistication that made the moment even more special.
Reflecting on her experience, Becca said, “When looking on Keyzar’s website and social media, I found my DREAM ring. I never thought it was possible! In fact, not only did I find my dream ring, but I was able to customize it to make it more personal. While also finding my dream ring, I found it was AFFORDABLE!!! A true dream come true!!”
Julia & Brandon Nava
For Julia and Brandon, their summer proposal was a picture-perfect surprise. Initially, Brandon visited jewelry stores to find the right engagement ring. However, nothing seemed to catch his eye until he stumbled upon a Keyzar ad on Instagram. It was love at first sight—not just with the ring, but with the idea that this was the one he would use to propose to the love of his life.
Brandon chose The Twig, Keyzar's flagship engagement ring, with a one carat radiant-cut center stone. Inspired by the idea of adding new branches to your family tree, this iconic design features a dainty, twig-like band that gently caresses the wearer’s finger, symbolizing growth and connection. The delicate band beautifully emphasizes the size and brilliance of the center stone, making it a timeless choice for celebrating love and commitment.
One evening, as the summer sun dipped below the horizon, casting a golden glow across the sky, Brandon presented the ring to Julia. In that magical moment, with the warmth of the setting sun and the promise of forever, she joyfully exclaimed, “Yes!”
Reflecting on the journey, Brandon shared, “Keyzar has some of the most beautiful and well-made jewelry I’ve ever seen. I’m thrilled with the choice I made, and from my fiancée’s reaction, I know she is too.” The summer evening had sealed their love story with a perfect, sparkling ring—a symbol of their bright future together.
Cristina & Kyle Rankin
When he decided to propose to Cristina, Kyle knew he wanted to make it unforgettable. After exploring custom rings with several online retailers, he decided to go with Keyzar due to the brand’s responsiveness and accommodating customer service.
His ring of choice was The Penelope set with a 2.5 carat oval center stone, which turned out to be more stunning than they could ever have imagined. The delicate band, adorned with six diamonds, offered just the right amount of shimmer while the slender design gracefully drew attention to the dazzling center stone.
Kyle chose to propose on a secluded beach in the Bahamas. As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a golden glow across the beach, he asked Cristina to be his forever. She said yes, and the two shared a moment of pure happiness, basking in the joy of their engagement. For Cristina and Kyle, their Keyzar ring isn’t just a piece of jewelry—it’s a symbol of the perfect day and the beautiful future they are building together.
Baylee & Colin Trach
When Baylee began to notice Keyzar ads on Colin’s social media feed, her curiosity was piqued. Though she tried to brush it off, a small part of her wondered if this meant something more.
She got her answer when she and Colin were walking along the beach one gorgeous August evening. When the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a soft, romantic glow, he stopped, turning to her with a smile that made her heart race. Slowly, he reached into his pocket and pulled out the ring of her dreams—The Natalie, a breathtaking cathedral solitaire engagement ring, with a hidden halo and twin rows of twinkling pave-set diamonds that complemented the band.
As Baylee later reflected on the moment, she couldn't help but be amazed at the impeccable quality of the yellow gold ring, which featured a shimmering 1 carat oval center stone. It was even more stunning in person, sparkling with a brilliance that left her in awe. “I didn’t win mini putt that night (not even close),” she recalled later, “but I do get to marry my best friend!”
