    Got the most beautiful necklace from golden string! The customer service is so amazing, no other company compares. The team answered every single question I had. I originally got the necklace stolen from my mail room and the team at golden string was able to help me through all the craziness! I would 100% come back for more jewelry needs!

    From start to finish, my experience with Golden String Jewelry was exceptional! I discovered them on Instagram and was immediately drawn to their custom work - their designs are elegant, thoughtful and tastefully unique. After sharing a few styles I loved, I received a quote and began the design process. Natalie was an absolute peach - I had so many questions and she was incredibly patient and thorough with her answers. Once we finalized the design, my perfect ring was crafted and delivered ahead of schedule, just in time for Christmas. It's more beautiful than I could have imagined... truly perfect in every way! Thank you Natalie and Golden String, for making this holiday season so special!

    Natalie and Ilene at Golden String have exceeded my fiancé's and my expectations when it came to creating my engagement ring. We came across their business via IG on Oct 2024. I fell in love with one of their settings that was in between a pavé band and solitaire band. Making an appointment was seamless and easy. We were able to look at various stones during the appointment. Initially I fell in love with an oval diamond and my fiancé was able to purchase on the spot at a decent price. A few months later, right before my fiancé was going to propose to me, I ended up realizing that the oval cut wasn't for me. My fiancé quickly reached out to Natalie and set a quick appointment to look at cushion cuts. I ended up with their very last antique cushion cut in stock, and it was an upgrade in color, clarity and carat. Of course there was a small exchange fee for the diamond as they had to reset the entire basket for the new cushion cut, but they were so accommodating and always put my happiness first. We are just recently engaged as of last week and I can't stop staring at my ring. It is truly everything I wanted.

    If I could give Golden String 10 stars, I would!!! We had looked around at a few other places before finding Golden String through a friend, and I'm SO happy we did. From the first phone call, I knew this would be the perfect team to take care of something as important as an engagement ring. I first spoke with Eileen on the phone and she was immediately helpful and clearly answered all the initial questions I had before helping me schedule an in-person consultation. At our first in-person consultation, we met with Eileen and met Natalie and Victor towards the end too. They were all extremely warm, kind, welcoming, attentive and really helped us through the process. She had everything prepared that we had spoken about on the phone for me to try, and just made the process so seamless and FUN. After that consultation, they stayed in close contact with my fiancé to finish designing and creating my DREAAAMMMMM engagement ring (and wedding band). I couldn't be happier or more grateful for how it all turned out!!! The cherry on top... it was all at a great, very reasonable price. Every step of the process, you can really tell this family loves what they do and care about their craft and their clients. Could not recommend them enough. 10/10! Thank you, Golden String, for being such a big part of one of the most meaningful moments of our lives.

    Natalie did an outstanding job with our ring. The moment we met her for the first time, we already knew she would be the one for the job. We could not have imagined a more beautiful ring if we had tried. Natalie understood the vision we had for this ring. We are delighted with how the ring turned out. Additionally, the diamonds she selected are always incredibly sparkly and shiny! Her pricing is also competitive. I would gladly pay the prices she charges for her high quality work. Natalie communicated with me every step of the process and would provide her expertise as well which was appreciated. We highly recommend her and her team and will certainly be going back for future projects. -Andreas and Britni

    The best jeweler to exist! Golden String is a sweet family owned business with multi-generational knowledge & expertise. We worked with Natalie to design our dream rings and not only did she truly listen & took note of everything we wanted in a ring, she was extremely patient with us, provided insightful guidance, & absolutely nailed our rings. Vic also gave us honest feedback to assist our decision making. Our rings are beautifully crafted with exceptional quality at a price that we found affordable. Getting our rings cleaned, checked, and resized by Golden String has also been a breeze. The service is prompt and Natalie is always extremely responsive whenever we have any questions. Their service is truly invaluable; they make you feel like family!!! I love love love working with Natalie and would recommend her & her family's fabulous business to anyone & everyone looking for a dependable & reputable jeweler. I cannot recommend them enough (no literally, we get so many compliments EVERYDAY and alwaysss make sure everyone knows who created our stunning pieces - btw we live 4 hours away and would still choose Golden String in a heartbeat). Go create your dream ring with your forever jeweler!!! :)

    I HIGHLY recommend Golden String for any jewelry related needs! My soulmate and I got an engagement ring from Golden String, and they literally made the ring of our dreams !! Natalie was amazing and put so much time and love to make sure we got everything we wanted! They are amazingly sweet, knowledgeable, and friendly! I couldn't recommend them any more !!

    I can't say enough about golden string and Natalie! She helped my fiancé design the perfect ring. It is so stunning I can't stop looking at it. They even put our birthstones on the inside of the ring. The quality is unmatched it is the most sparkly ring I have ever seen! I highly recommend

    100,000,000/10 -- Natalie did an INCREDIBLE job with my ring! I am IN LOVE with it, and we are so, so, so grateful we put our trust in her. To start, she is incredibly responsive and efficient. We got an appointment right away and had the chance to experiment with different ideas and styles. She wasn't pushy at all, and I felt completely at ease--it just felt right! By the second appointment, we had finalized our decision. The entire process was seamless, and she was so patient with me, an insufferable perfectionist. She works with the highest quality diamonds, each with the ultimate sparkle. Natalie can execute an style of ring you want. My ring is quite different from her usual designs, and it really shows her incredible range. I chose an emerald-cut ring with two vertical baguettes on each side. I brought her a picture from a very high-end designer, and Natalie recreated it to look even better than what I showed her--and for a fraction of the cost. She somehow made the design we envisioned even more elegant and dainty than the original, nailing all the proportions perfectly. Her attention to detail is why I recommend her to anyone as particular as me. The ring is timeless, elegant, and truly a perfectionist's dream. My fiancé keeps saying that he never guessed he would love staring at it almost as much as I do She absolutely knocked it out of the park! After all, I'm pretty sure she mentioned she was a Virgo! ;) Trust me--you're in great hands!!!

    Natalie's work is STUNNING. She is an artist. She has a wonderful eye, is a great listener, and has spot-on intuition. These skills really elevate the experience at Golden String. If you happen to be shopping for an engagement ring, she brings a very calming presence to what could be a potentially stressful situation. Purchasing a big ticket item like this can be feel a little pressurized, especially if you don't know much about jewelry and you're planning on wearing this daily for a looooong time. Natalie is patient and supportive. There's no pressure, no intense sales tactics, no rush. With purchases like this, I generally like to get opinions from the professional (this is what they do for a living after all). Natalie will absolutely share her expertise, which I deeply appreciate. I trust her implicitly. She is authentic, honest, and clearly very skilled at what she does. When we designed my ring, she gave feedback about my initial inspo images and, based on her suggestions, we made adjustments so that the ring had every single feature I wanted (and even those I didn't realize I wanted but am so glad to have). I have never been a huge jewelry person, but as soon as I saw my engagement ring, I was like, "Oooooh, I get it now." I'm obsessed. I look down at it every single day and can't believe it's mine. Thank you, thank you, Natalie! Also, I ordered my band with her (OF COURSE), and while I loved it alone, I didn't 1000% feel like it paired with my engagement ring. Natalie was responsive and kind. She worked with me on finding a solution and never made me feel bad for making a change. I'm beyond grateful to have gotten to work with Golden String to design my dream ring. It was a romantic and bonding experience for my partner and I. I've recommended her to all my friends (everyone...I mean everyone...comments on my ring and want to know where it came from). I now have a jeweler (weird to say, but here we are) for life. I find myself looking forward to building my Golden String collection over the decades to come. I'm filled with gratitude that this process has been so pleasant and peaceful. Natalie, you sparkle!

    My husband bought my engagement ring here, and the experience was absolutely wonderful. The staff was incredibly sweet and helpful throughout the entire process. We later returned to purchase our wedding bands and were just as impressed. The quality and pricing are outstanding, and their customer service is truly 10/10. Every time we visit, they treat us with such warmth and care!

From the moment we walked in we were greeted right away , offered water , and they even went over my inspiration photos. Everything felt very prepared for my appointment, I didn't feel rushed or limited. What surprised me the most & really impressed me and my fiancé was the way they were both attentive, kind, professionals and knew their styles. They picked a dress out for me on top of the dresses I had in mind and at the end of the appointment I left picking their recommendation because that's how amazing of an eye and taste for bridal fashion they have. How talented is it to know a brides taste and look without the bride even knowing herself. I was truly blown away by their selection. The gowns I tried on were all Maggie Sottero and all gorgeous. Their pick for me ended up being mine and my fiancés favorite, nothing else topped it. Checkout was easy, prices are affordable for the high quality , free alterations with a dress purchase and options for some customizations. The store itself was very clean , uplifting , it felt upscale with all the beautiful lighting , changing rooms & seating areas. Parking is easy to find with street /meter parking or a few parking lots nearby. We said yes to the dress thanks to Esmeralda and America, we can't thank a better dream team ! They will go far in the bridal world especially how they made our dress shopping a dreamy experience.

The end product was satisfactory, but not without several mistakes and unnecessary stress. Be prepared to be on TOP of the associates as the communication is nonexistent otherwise. While Angel was lovely, her sales associates need training. I wish I could have corresponded with Angel directly, as her associates seemed to not know what was going on/did not communicate. On 8/31/24, I said yes to the dress after having exhausted 6-7 bridal shops in Phoenix. I finally felt a sense of relief. I paid in FULL that day. I signed the paperwork for my dress to be ready in March 2025, two months before my wedding. The next steps were for Yesenia to send a sketch of my dress based on the designs I wanted, within a few weeks. I waited several weeks and when I didn't get anything, I reached out to Enoch (who is no longer with them). He assured me he would get on Yesenia to send the sketch. I didn't get A sketch until 11/20/24, nearly 3 months after I had already paid for my dress, and it wasn't even a sketch of my dress! I didn't get a sketch of MY dress until 11/25/24 and it looked like something she drew in 5 minutes. Very anticlimactic. After A LOT of back and forth on the finer details, I asked if the dress was ready to START production on 12/5/24. I received no response. I sent another email on 12/9/24, no response. I finally booked a flight to LA and SHOWED UP IN PERSON on 12/14 and Yesenia looked surprised to see me. She stated that she had responded production had already started on my dress, and she had sent an email but it must not have gone through. OKAY. I started emailing her again in February asking about the status of my dress: 2/3, 2/15, 2/22, 3/1. 3/1 Yesenia stated she would send me photos of my dress and book my first fitting. She never did send me photos of my dress. I had my first fitting on 3/16/25. I was expecting for all my fittings and the dress to be finalized by this point, but I was just happy there was a dress at all. The leg slit I had asked to be on the right side, was on the left side instead. Because of the way the dress was designed, it could not easily be fixed. They did not apologize for the error at any point. They did offer to REMAKE the dress, however, with my wedding less than 2 months away (5/8/25) and the TERRIBLE communication, I did not want to take that stress or risk. I had also asked for pearl buttons on the overskirt but received satin buttons. Yesenia replied that production had responded on 2/24 (to her) that pearls cost extra; at no point had she communicated this to me. She stated she would have them swapped out for the pearl buttons. On 3/27/25, I sent all the photos of the details I wanted for my veil to Yesenia. Admittedly, there were a lot of details- I wanted a cathedral veil, scallop trim with beaded edge, and for our names and the date to be embroidered. Knowing my wedding date, and that I had to leave the COUNTRY at the beginning of May, Yesenia could have prefaced that all these details would take a month+ to make- but she never stated any sort of time frame. In April, I asked if the original alterations were completed on my dress. Lots of unanswered texts. I had my 2nd fitting on 4/26, the WEEKEND before I was leaving the COUNTRY for my wedding. Luckily the dress came together, even though the leg slit was wrong. The veil was not ready for me to take home that day. Yesenia stated she could have it shipped for $8 or next day shipping for $33. I stated that I would not be paying for shipping over text, and I reiterated this again during the 2nd fitting. She agreed to wave the cost. The veil shipped on 4/28 and I received it on 4/30, a mere 3 days before leaving the country. Luckily the veil was beautiful, albeit the embroidery was smaller than I expected- but everything was spelled correctly (a point I reiterated multiple times via text). At the end of the day, everything turned out OKAY but it certainly was unnecessarily stressful and unenjoyable. I didn't have the dress of my dreams (because of the leg slit on the wrong side- and I didn't utilize the leg slit on the left side) which is crushing when you're promised it and PAYING for it. I don't recommend Lucky Brides for your peace of mind.

She's already stunning, but in that dress, it felt like watching all four seasons unfold at once -- absolutely breathtaking. We couldn't have imagined a better experience. If you're looking for a boutique that treats you like family and makes the entire process seamless and unforgettable, Anita's is the place.
