I had a very unique concept for an engagement ring for the love of my life. I wasn't sure that it would translate into something that could actually be achieved. After spending an hour with Bill, talking about my idea and my girlfriend, he had realised my idea in sketch form and it looked even better than I had imagined. Whilst he said that it was going to be a challenge, the end result surpassed even my wildest expectations, and captured the personality of my better two thirds perfectly.
Bill's artistic talent, attention to detail, the attentiveness of his staff, and the end result were above and beyond anything that I had expected. Ash was absolutely delighted with the piece of art that Bill crafted for her - for it is a work of art, not just a piece of jewellery.
I couldn't have chosen a better craftsman than Bill Hicks to create for my love and I, an endearing symbol of our love for each other.

We had such a wonderful experience coming to see you to have Sharon's engagement and wedding rings made, and the results of your work are an endless pleasure to us (but especially to Sharon). We both really enjoyed having the rings made, choosing the diamonds and meeting you. We hope to see you again for an anniversary or other special occasion so you can create another piece of magic in our lives.

Dear Bill & Emma, Thank you so much for all your hard work on my engagement ring. I am so in love with it!!! It is exactly what I wanted, just absolutely perfect and I can't stop looking at it! You guys are magicians - I went in to see you for the first time having absolutely no clue about what I wanted and the end result is this incredibly beautiful ring which I think is exactly right for me. So thank you, I couldn't be happier. We will be in touch soon to arrange our wedding rings.

I am sitting here looking at my wedding ring - it is absolutely beautiful and just perfect. It is everything that I wanted - something bold and chunky yet somehow delicate and feminine at the same time. I did not see the ring until Bruce put it on my finger during our wedding ceremony - it took my breath away. I guess you can say that I am in love with my wedding ring - thank you so much for creating it for me.

Hi Bill, I really appreciate the beautiful work you have undertaken on both of my rings - they look fantastic and have been much admired. I will be happy to recommend you to friends and family alike should the need arise. It was a pleasure dealing with you.
Thanks for your attention to detail and assistance

Bill, I am thrilled with our choice of ring. I have spent a long time looking to
find what I thought was the perfect piece and I knew it would end up being
something other than what I had in mind...There are a lot of jewellers and
stores happy to make something, but it was difficult to know what and your
spending time with us, in the end made our decision much easier. I love the
personal service and that fact it is your business that you are passionate
about.

Afternoon Bill, Just a quick note to let you know that the gorgeous ring you crafted for me was well received-Jane absolutely loved it- and I received a "Yes" to the big question. I'm still trying to determine whether that was a good or bad thing now that all the wedding planning has started!!
Thankyou again for making a difficult process very easy. I'll be sure to mention your name when any of my friends are looking to have some jewellery made.

Hi Bill, How are you mate?
Sorry I've not sent this email earlier!! I have been meaning to. I just wanted to let you know that I proposed to Lauren, and she said yes!
She absolutely LOVES the ring! So she wants to say a huge thank you to you!
I also wanted to thank you again mate! Really appreciate all you did for me.
We've decided to get married on January the 30th 2010.
And we would love to come in some time and talk to you about wedding bands.
Thanks again Bill!

Good morning,
I just wanted to extend my thanks to everyone there for Taryn's exquisite engagement ring - the proposal went well, and she absolutely loves it.
Thanks to Kia, Emma and Colin for all your help, and of course Bill - your kind, patient manner made the whole process so much easier, and your vision and talent gave us a ring we'll be able to admire for the rest of our lives.
All the best, and I'll be in touch for the wedding band - hopefully I won't be in such a rush this time!
Regards,
Daniel

Hi Bill,
Not sure if you'd remember me, I came in to your office around mid-
january looking for a pendant for my girlfriend's 21st present
(amethyst with three small diamonds). I just wanted to send you a message of thanks - I was absolutely thrilled with the end product, and she was incredibly flattered by it also.
Thankyou so much for not only a lovely piece, but for your flexibility in taking time to accommodate what I am sure was one of your smaller projects.
All the best Bill,
Ben |

Hi Bill,
Again, a simply stunning effort with the ring. The diamond is hypnotic in its clarity. Your work is brilliant and Kylie is engrossed with it! Please pass my thanks on to Colin as well. You both did a great job!

Dear Bill, We have been meaning to write to you for months-we are writing to let you know how much joy the ring we had made by you has brought us! It is truly beautiful-and compliments are many! Recently I was at an art gallery and a complete stranger walked up to me and said. "My goodness your diamond is sparkling on the other side of the room!"
Thank you Bill-your craft is OUTSTANDING!!

Just a letter to send our kind regards, and to let you know how very, very happy we are with this incredible ring you made for us!
Sam and I loved the time you spent with us, and the compliments haven’t stopped! It is such a sparkling stone!
We are getting married in April, and were wondering if you would like to make the wedding rings for us?
We love your work - and we promise we won’t need it made in such a rush this time!
Kind regards,
