Long Distance Love - Tanya and Mike's Story

Sometimes true love is closer than you think!  Tanya and Mike found their spark after an unexpected encounter at a pool party.  They have commemorated some of their most precious moments through the years with stunning personalized jewellery pieces.  We are honored to have played a small part in their Happily Ever After.  Here is their love story:

I attended my girlfriends pool party and met Mike (who happened to be her stepbrother). She had never really spoken about him because he lived in Toronto and did not visit much. We had a great time–talked about everything and anything and danced the night away. The next day, we planned for me to pick him up at his parents to go out to dinner. We ended up staying at his parents and had drinks a nice dinner with them. It was a perfect first date. 

We continued to talk for the next few weeks, and he flew me to Toronto to spend a weekend with him. Looking back, I'm so glad I accepted that invite. We laughed and talked and enjoyed some good wine and by the end of three days I knew I was going to fall for this man.  

In the fall, Mike joined me by moving into my townhouse in Orleans, Ontario. In that townhome our love grew more than I could have ever imagined. Fast forward to today, we have a beautiful home in the Country, and I am immeasurably grateful to find someone who loves me unconditionally, difficulties and all. A man who's puzzle piece fits with mine so perfectly. A man who not only accepts my love but makes sure I always feel that love in return.  

Mike From the very beginning of our relationship, showered me with jewelry. He would not go anywhere else but La Maison d’Or. The service, courtesy and professionalism received at La Maison D’Or is equal to none. Brent Harden and his daughter Jessica are extremely knowledgeable and operate their business with integrity and a sincere desire to see their clients happy with their purchase. Brent helped Mike design a unique engagement ring and I could not be happier. I love my custom-made Tacori ring, and I always get compliments on it. 

Mike and I were married at Beantown Receptions in 2023. It was a magical day in the most beautiful setting.
