"Dear Rhonda, I wanted to send you this long overdue note to say thanks
for everything you did for my wedding. Ariel and Ingrid loved their
jewelry and it made their outfits complete!! I loved, loved, loved all
my stuff too - my favorite is the
pink
and clear anklet, it makes me feel so
happy and girly when I wear it! I just want you to know how much I
appreciate all you did and more than anything, it has been so nice
getting to know you. It makes me smile just to hear your voice!! Thanks
for everything, Rhonda, you are truly wonderful."

she is talking about in her letter. I also made crystal anklets and

 |
| My first email from
Karina after she received her bridal jewelry set:
"OH MY GOSH!!! It
is SOOOO beautiful!!! I mean - I was expecting pretty but this is...
WONDERFUL! I am SO excited! I definitely found someone I can trust to
make jewelry for me for future things. Awesome, Rhonda! I will
refer everyone I know to you now. I can just imagine the compliments and
"Where'd you get that?" at the wedding! Again, thanks." |
| A later email from
Karina after she received her bridesmaid's jewelry order:
"Hi Rhonda, I
LOVE THEM ALL!!!! They are so awesome! And so I tried them all on at
once... and they are going to be SOOO beautiful with my dress! The
earrings are the PERFECT length! Am I generating too many exclamation
points?!!! :) Seriously - got them today and I am SO happy with your
products. Thank you thank you thank you. And I didn't even know they'd
come in those cool oriental purses - and the cute little bags for the
flowergirls are awesome! The packaging was an added touch that's VERY
pretty! My girls (and women, I should say) are going to absolutely love
them! Just wanted to let you know that I received them and that I LOVE
them. I will be sending pictures... MAHALO! It was definitely a PLEASURE
doing business with you and I hope that I can steer more business your
way when people see your wonderful jewelry! Aloha,Rina" |
| A later email from
Karina after she returned home from her honeymoon:
"We had a great
time!! And my bridesmaids LOVED their jewelry! THANKS!" |
Karina and Steven were married at the Hale Koa Hotel in Honolulu, HI |
| We made a custom
5-strand woven pearl set for Karina,
Siam
crystal sets for her bridesmaids, and
Siam crystal/pearl
sets for her flowergirls. |
| Here is another
email Karina sent to me after she returned from her honeymoon. She
wants everyone to know how she feels about me. She is one of my
all-time favorite brides I have worked with and I hope we stay in touch
with each other for many years to come!: |
"Being
the semi-perfectionist that I am, I wanted to get accessories for
me, my bridesmaids, and my flowergirls that was "new and different". I
started looking early enough (I thought), at retail stores, craft fairs,
and even trade shows, but nothing struck me as "THE" right pieces. To
top it off, I did find a style of choker that I wanted for myself... but
since I am "big boned", none of them fit my neck without looking like it
wasn't made for me. So LATE in the game, I decided to look online. Lo
and behold I found Rhonda's CUSTOM MADE JEWELRY site and was wondering
how this process would work. So I emailed her and, to make a long story
short, I ended up buying ALL my accessories from Rhonda and I (and the
rest of my bridal party) was ABSOLUTELY HAPPY about what I received in
return! As you can see from the pictures, the jewelry Rhonda made is
BEAUTIFUL! Not only were the pieces wonderfully made, but by dealings
with her were easy, professional, creative, and inspiring! Working with
her didn't stress me out like one would think as I tried to get pieces
made for 5 bridesmaids, 2 flowergirls, and myself - necklaces,
bracelets, AND earrings! - in about a month! And the kicker is that
she's in North Carolina and I'm in Hawai`i, 6 time zones away! Another
plus was that I didn't even know what I wanted for my bridesmaids so she
made suggestions, I trusted her judgment and was SO GLAD I did!
Bottom line here is that I had one of the best "online shopping
experiences" with Rhonda. She was helpful, attentive, and it seemed
like I was the only customer she had because of the attention I
received. Her jewelry is WELL MADE, BEAUTIFUL, and best of all,
INEXPENSIVE (compared to anywhere else)! I plan to send anyone who
wants custom made jewelry to Rhonda for best results. Thanks and MAHALO
NUI LOA from the bottom of my heart, Rhonda - YOU DA BEST!
Aloha pumehana,
Karina Noelani Tam Orot
Honolulu, Hawai`i" |

"Dear
Rhonda- I’m so sorry I’ve taken so long to write to you, but as you can
imagine, things are a little hectic here for me right now. I received
the box with all my bridesmaids necklaces, earrings, the flower girls
necklaces and MY necklace last week. Thank you, thank you, thank you,
thank you!!!! Everything looks SO beautiful and just how I imagined it!
My necklace fits PERFECTLY! No rigging necessary, it stays right in
place. I can’t wait for Saturday and also to send you pictures so you
can see how wonderful and perfect your work is for my wedding. I truly
cannot thank you enough, it’s been such a pleasure to work with you and
I’ll certainly recommend you to all my friends and family for future
jewelry needs! I will be in touch after we return from our honeymoon in
May!!! Thanks again, Sincerely, Kelly Ryan" |
| K. Ryan, New
Milford, CT |
| A later email from
Kelly:
"Hi Rhonda! I
just wanted to send you a quick note to tell you how great our wedding
was and how perfect all the jewelry was! First, the bridesmaids and
flower girls LOVED their necklaces and earrings, and they were
absolutely perfect. They were so unique and delicate, they went
perfectly with the dresses, and everyone really appreciated that they
were hand and custom made for us!!! MY jewelry was exquisite! It was
perfect with my dress, fit my neck and stayed perfectly (covering my
scar which I’m so self-conscious about), and again was unique and
elegant. The bracelet was perfect too; so many people commented and
asked me about my jewelry, of course I gave you all the kudos I could
muster! I have attached an early photo that was sent to me so that you
could see how beautiful the necklace was with my entire ensemble. Once I
get my formal photos, I’ll send you something that shows everything
better, including the girls things. This photo really shows you how much
fun we were having, Clint LOVED everything, so his face in the photo is
not a reflection of his feelings about my jewelry, I assure you!!! Well,
again thank you so much for everything, I had the best experience
working with you, especially considering I found you online and so many
miles away from me, I was leery at first if this long distance
transaction would work, but it was easy and seamless. I will treasure my
wedding jewelry forever and I really appreciate the work you did to make
my vision for myself come true!!! Very truly and sincerely yours, Kelly
Murphy" |
I love the looks on Kelly and Clint's faces - they look like they are
having so much fun! We made a custom
5-strand woven pearl necklace, bracelet and earrings set for Kelly's
wedding day. |
|
"Rhonda, WOW!!
They look incredible. I'm soooo pleased...Thank you very much...The
girls are going to be so ecstatic to have such pretty pearl jewelry of
their own. I can envision them walking around so proud! Thanks for the
silk pouches too--what a lovely touch. Thanks again. I couldn't be
more pleased with how they turned out." |
| S. Westcott, San
Jose, CA |
| We made
child-sized
pearl necklaces for her 6 flowergirls. |
| Here is a later
email Stephanie sent me (with pictures!): |
|
"I know I'm very
late at getting you some pictures, but I did finally figure out my
scanner and figured better late than never! Hopefully the quality is ok.
Unfortunately, there isn't one picture of all 6 girls, but I am sending
several of the different girls and you can certainly see how adorable
they all were. They all just LOVED their necklaces and thought they were
so special. My nieces want to wear them all the time, but my sister has
to tell them only for special occasions and church!... Thank you again
for the beautiful work. The girls will treasure them for years to
come... Thanks again! Stephanie" |

"Hello Rhonda, I
just got back from our wedding and honeymoon and everything was perfect.
My maid of honor loved her earrings! I want to thank you again for your

| J. Cooke, Columbia,
MD |

"Rhonda, I just
wanted to write and thank you so much for all of your help with the
jewelry for the wedding. All of my bridesmaids were so excited to get
their necklaces and earrings, and my mother-in-law loved her bracelet
and earrings so much she e-mailed me as soon as she got home to find out
how to find a matching necklace (which is perfect because now we know
what to get her for Christmas, and she notoriously hard to shop
for!!)... ...With all of the festivities, I kept noticing how beautiful
my closest friends, plus my sister and my sister-in-law looked, and a
huge piece of that was their jewelry. They looked classy and elegant,
and they were happy to have pieces that they can keep and wear when
other big events in their lives occur. I also loved my jewelry, and took
it with me on our honeymoon, and wore it several times during the
cruise... ...Always, Alison" |
| A. McKeeman,
Sacramento, CA |
Alison ordered Illusion Pearl Necklaces
and Pearl Stud Earrings for herself and her bridesmaids. She
and Greg placed several more orders with me for mother's gifts (classic
black pearl bracelets and Leverback earrings sets) and sister's
gifts. What a great couple to work with! |
|
"Rhonda, The
flowergirl sets are BEAUTIFUL. My 3 year old pranced around with hers on
feeling like such a princess when we got them. You do great work. Thanks
again for everything. Sheryl" |
| S. Koziarski, Ponte
Vedra Beach, FL |
| A later email from
Sheryl:
"Dear Rhonda: I
wanted to send you some pictures of the flower girls in my sister's
wedding wearing your beautiful jewelry. The felt so glamorous with the
'jewels'...Thanks again for the beautiful jewelry." |
 We made
pearl and crystal
necklace & bracelet sets for Sheryl's little girls to match the
dresses they were going to wear in a wedding. I love the little
Ring Bearer looking at her bracelet in the picture! |
|
"Rhonda, I received the earrings in the mail on Friday and I think they
look great. I held them up against the dresses and I think everything
will tie in together nicely. The violet beads matched perfectly, I
couldn't have been more pleased. Thank you so much for working with me
on this. Your turn around time was FAST!! I'll be sure to recommend your
site to my friends should they need any custom jewelry made for their
special occasion. Thanks again, Mallory" |
| M. Benz, Charlotte,
NC |
| We made
custom
crystal earrings for Mallory's bridesmaids to match the two colors
of their gowns. |

"Hi
Rhonda How are you? Well, the BIG DAY has come and gone....back on
September 6th :) We lucked out and one of the most beautiful days of the
year for our outdoor wedding. I promise to scan some better photos
showing your beautiful necklace and earrings; but for now, these photos
show off your work the best :) Everyone loved my jewelry, and kept
asking where I purchased it. I am now in the process of passing along
your information to friends and family and hopefully I will bring some
more business your way. Thank you so much for making my special day,
even more special! You are amazingly talented and a pleasure to work
with. Take care, and I will keep in touch. Kimberly" |
| K. Price, New York,
NY |
We made a
double-strand illusion necklace in pearls and pink crystals for
Kimberly to match her pink wedding bouquet. |
|
"Rec'd the "sample" set of the jewelry. It's
great! The earrings are just perfect and the shadow beads on the organza
offset the embroidery on the bodice of their gowns like you wouldn't
believe!" |
| A later email from
Jennifer (after her wedding):
"They loved the
necklaces and earrings. What a great gift!...Oh, and I have worn my
necklace a number of times since the wedding. It looks great with all of
my suits and dressy outfits." |
| J. Aquilina,

"Thank
you so much Rhonda!!! I absolutely love the jewelry, I received it
yesterday! I was surprised how fast I got it, I am so excited and can't
wait to give it to her. It was even more sparkly and beautiful than I
had imagined. Thank you for making this so special for her. Bless you
for this beautiful Talent!!!----Mandy from Georgia" |
| M. Gray, Snellville,

| We made a
3-piece
pearl and crystal child's jewelry set for Mandy's Junior Bridesmaid |

"Hi Rhonda, Well I can't tell you how many
compliments I received on your jewelry everyone thought it was
beautiful. The day wasn't without it's problems but we are now married
and the minor mishaps are trivial at this point. We were in Jamaica
the following week, again, not without problems but we had a wonderful
time with one another. I hope that us making it through the stress of
the last two months is indicative of the success we will have with our
marriage...You will no doubt get to see one of the problems that arose
which was what seemed like 200 mile an hour winds but again, we're
married and that's all that matters right? I want to thank you again and
wish you lots of luck with future business. I will be sure and recommend
you to everyone. Sincerely, Mandy" |
| M. Wetsel, Pequesta,
FL |
We made a
3-piece (Necklace, Bracelet and Stud Earrings) 5-Strand Pearl Illusion
Set for Mandy. She looks great - even in high winds! |

"Hi
Rhonda!! I'm married!! YAY! I can't thank you enough for the gorgeous
jewelry you did for my wedding. The girls loved their sets and they were
just lovely with the dresses. My jewelry looked amazing and we all got
many compliments. Your professionalism is bar none and your work is
something to be proud of...Thanks again Rhonda, have a great summer!
Pam" |
| P. Skane, Beverly,

received her package of jewelry:
"Rhonda, The
jewelry arrived today - it's all beautiful! Mine is absolutely perfect -
exactly like I pictured in my head! And it looks gorgeous on! I know the
girls will love theirs, too. Thanks again!" |
| Here is a later
email from Richele when she shared her wedding pictures with me:
"Hello
Rhonda! I tried to go through and find some photos that showed off your
jewelry. Every piece you created was just perfect for our wedding. My
jewelry was soft and perfect for my sparkly dress - just as I wanted.
The jewelry for the girls was more dramatic and really added pizzazz to
their simple dresses - again, just as I wanted. Thanks again for all of
your help and your beautiful work! Richele" |
| R. Yacopino,
Washington, DC |
| Richele wore a
strapless, full tulle wedding gown with tiny pearl beadwork - she wanted
double-strand
pearl illusion jewelry (necklace, bracelet and earrings) for
herself. Her bridesmaids wore silver gowns with pink accents - she
wanted organza
necklaces,
earrings
and 5-strand pearl illusion bracelets for them. Her junior
bridesmaids wore smaller versions of the bridesmaid's gowns - pink with
silver accents - she wanted
organza
necklaces and earrings for them. Her flowergirls wore white
gowns with pink rosebuds - she wanted
organza bracelets
for them, too. |
| Here are some of the
pictures she sent me: |
 |
|
"Rhonda, Thank you so much. I absolutely love the
calla lily
sets. They are beautiful. I know that they are
going to look wonderful on my bridesmaids. I will definitely send you
pictures. Thank you, Michelle" |
| M. Browell,
Carmichaels, PA |
|
"Rhonda,
The jewelry arrived yesterday and I was so thrilled!!! They look even
more gorgeous in person than they do on the screen. Also, the little
gift bags you put them in are such an adorable touch - and you saved me
from having to wrap them (God bless you!). Thanks again for all your
wonderful work. I know they will absolutely love them, and I'll have to
make one of my two sisters let me borrow the set after the wedding! Have
a wonderful week! ~Ashley Wilkinson" |
| A. Wilkinson,
Lexington KY |
| We made
illusion
pearl and crystal jewelry sets for Ashley and her bridesmaids. |
Here is a later email from Ashley:
"Hi Rhonda, My
name is Ashley Hays (last name used to be Wilkinson) and I got married
last November. You made me the most beautiful jewelry sets to give to my
bridesmaids...everyone just loved them! When I was choosing which style
of necklace would look best, I looked at pictures of past weddings and
they were an enormous help. So, I wanted to send you a picture from my
wedding so you can see how great the necklaces looked and to use on your
website if you wanted to! I would have sent this much sooner, but none
of my photographer's pictures showed off the jewelry very well. Someone
just sent me this picture today and I think you can really see the
necklaces in this one. Thanks again so much for helping to make my
wedding day perfect, and maybe this picture will help sell some more of
those floating-crystal beauties!! Have a great day! Ashley Hays" |
"It looks beautiful Rhonda! We will be watching
for it to arrive. Yes, we have received our other order and we love it.
Thank you, Rhonda! It has been a pleasure doing business with you! Kind

know! Thanks Melissa Hoeppner (formerly Parteka) from Traverse City

This is Liz's story, a beautiful bride in Windsor, CT. She
contacted me to first make
classic-style Swarovski™
Crystal Pearl necklace and earrings jewelry sets for her
bridesmaids. This was her response this: |
"Hi
Rhonda, I've had my pearls for several days now, I just wanted to let
you know that I'm so happy with them. I can't wait for my wedding day,
and to give them to the girls! I think I'm a little jealous that they
get these beautiful sets!
Within the next week or so I need to make a decision about my jewelry,
and I'll let you know when I finally do decide. Everything looks so
pretty, you make it hard for a bride! I'm really glad I found your site
because it has everything I could want on it.
Thank you so much for your beautiful work! Have a great day, Liz" |
| Here is the email
from Liz and some pictures she sent me after the wedding: |
|
"Hi Rhonda, It's been a long time, but
you made me all the jewelry for my wedding day, and my bridal party!
Everyone just LOVED them, so I finally got some pictures back, so I'm
sending a few on to you so you can see your work!" |
| We made a
custom necklace, bracelet,
earrings and anklet jewelry set for Liz on her wedding day: |
"There's me and my
new hubby! I didn't get a good picture of the anklet, but there's the
beautiful necklace (my favorite part) and the earrings!" |
| We made Swarovski™
crystal pearl necklace and stud earring jewelry sets for Liz's
bridesmaids: |
"These are my sisters, who just love their pearls!
Heidi (on the left) wears them all the time!" |
| "I
once again want to thank you for your patience and beautiful work!
Getting the jewelry was actually the least stressful part of the wedding
day, and I owe it to your excellent service. I'll be passing your name
along to any girlfriends who are getting married or just looking for
some pretty jewelry. You'll probably be hearing from me in the future
because I'm jealous of Heidi's necklace! Thanks again, Love, Liz
Mancino :)" |
