After going to several local Jewelers that were far from accommodating or comfortable selling a ring for a same sex engagement; it was the end of the day and I went back to Spencer to go home and saw Barnhardt Jewelers. I decided to go in and I was glad I did! It was 1 minute past closing when I walked through the door, assuming that I would be asked to come back tomorrow I decided to ask any ways. The young lady behind the counter said we are getting ready to close but how may I help you! I was feeling good already about stopping. She asked me what I was looking for and I told her that I was planning on proposing to my life partner. She was so HAPPY for me! Not only was the young lady nice, she also had a sincere interest in how my partner and I had met and fallen in love! This to me was one of the best parts of selecting the ring. Going over the memories with her while I was looking for the PERFECT one! It reminded me why I was there in the first place and reaffirmed my decision! The staff at Barnhardt Jewelers are not only friendly but they make you feel welcome too. Never once was I made to feel uncomfortable or treated like my decision to marry the man of my dreams was wrong just because we were the same gender! These guys really do believe in what they are selling their wedding Jewelery for "People in love!" and I truly got the feeling that they were happy for me. So whether you are Straight or LGBTQ you should go here for your wedding Jewelry! Or any for that matter! The staff are nice, helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. You can trust them to help you make the right decision for your most memorable moments in life! read more
