Four Ways Brent & Jess Make Shopping for Rings More Awesome

Because this part shouldn't be stressful, right?

If you’ve been around APW for any amount of time, you may know Brent & Jess as the company that makes those cool fingerprint wedding bands. If you’re new, let me give you the Cliff’s Notes version: Brent & Jess have developed patented technology that lets them take your partner’s unique fingerprint (or handwriting) and etch it into a wedding band, giving you a totally unique, super personal memento of your wedding, and a piece of jewelry that’s (literally) unlike like anyone else’s. But Brent & Jess are so much more than just a cool product. As anyone who has ever shopped with them will attest, getting a Brent & Jess ring is just as much about the experience as it is the end result. So today I thought I’d share four ways that Brent & Jess take the sometimes stressful act of choosing a wedding ring, and turn it into something fun:

1. They go the extra mile: Brent & Jess are one of those rare companies that’s as serious about customer service as they are about their art. Need something in a hurry? They can do that. Want to talk through the process with one of their team members so you can feel confident about your purchase? They’ll do that too. But most importantly, Brent & Jess will make sure you are up to date on your ring’s progress, from purchase to delivery, because nothing is worse than worrying that one of your wedding vendors has forgotten that you exist (except maybe for finding out that they have).

I’m often totally overwhelmed by how many glowing testimonials Brent & Jess receive each year, so I pulled one of my favorites that I think sums up the experience pretty well:

We received our rings yesterday (thank you for your help with FedEx). The rings were completed much sooner than we had anticipated. Thank you! It’s one more thing we can cross off the list! The rings are beautiful and original and exactly what we wanted, but beyond what we had imagined. They are perfect. The crafstmanship, fit, and quality of prints and handwriting is wonderful. Thank you so much for all of your help through the entire process, our never-ending questions, changes, and requests. Working with you guys has made the most stressful part of our wedding planning very easy and exciting. We look forward to wearing our rings for the rest of our lives, and we will let everyone know who custom made them just for us.

2. They care about your wallet. Brent & Jess want everyone to be able to afford their designs, which is why their rings start at just 5. Jess says:

Our rings are available in a wide range of price points, with platinum being the most expensive and sterling silver the most budget friendly. We offer the sterling silver and bronze because we want everyone to be able to afford having a super special ring. Your wedding ring is something you wear everyday and a constant reminder of your commitment.

3. You can feel good about shopping with them. While their reputation as customer service whiz kids might make it seem like Brent & Jess have a huge team of people working under them, the Brent & Jess team is actually very small and very local (just… very dedicated). And Brent & Jess themselves work really hard at being a business you’ll want to shop. Jess says:

We love working with people who are in a romantic and happy time of their lives. It is particularly nice when we can connect with them and make one part of the wedding process easier and fun. We are human. We are focused on being respectful, thoughtful, friendly, and human. We work with our customers to find out their needs. We hand make each ring here in the US. We take pride in supporting local companies and are not only about the bottom dollar but supporting our community. We love that our work is handmade with pride here in Maine. We are not out to sell it and forget about it. We are here for our customers after the sale. We only buy materials sourced in the US and support local companies. We use metals that can be sized and will last a lifetime if treated properly. Each piece is one hundred percent custom, crafted in the USA from recycled metal, and unique to you!

Speaking of humans, these are the friendly faces on the other side of the computer when you choose to work with Brent & Jess. You can read more about them and the cool process they use to make your rings right here.

4. They do pretty much Everything. If you’re wondering whether Brent & Jess have the kind of ring you’re looking for, chances are they do. Brent & Jess offer rings in just about every metal, from sterling silver to platinum, in a range of designs from simple to quirky (they also do engagement rings, as evidenced below). You can also choose between having your fingerprint on the inside or outside of your ring, and whether you want the whole thing fingerprinted, or just a little bit.

And if you have something specific in mind, Brent & Jess are more than happy to customize a piece for you, even if it’s not something featured on their website. (Check out some of their recent work here.)

So if you’re in the process of shopping for wedding bands, and want something personal and meaningful from a company who you know is going to take good care of you, then do yourself a favor and put Brent & Jess on your short list. Because you don’t get pages and pages of happy customers for nothing. And you won’t get rings like these from anyone else.
