How to Create a Jewelry Wish List at Doland Jewelers (And Why It’s Genius)
Ever dropped a subtle hint about the ring you love… and still ended up with something totally different?
Or maybe you’ve been the one nervously trying to guess her ring size two days before Christmas?
We’ve seen both sides — and we’ve created the perfect solution.
At Doland Jewelers, we help customers build personalized jewelry wish lists that make gift giving (and receiving) stress-free, sentimental, and just right.
💎 What Is a Doland Wish List?
It’s exactly what it sounds like — a private, curated list we keep on file in-store that includes:
- Her ring size
- Her favorite styles, pieces, and designers
- Notes on specific occasions (like birthday, anniversary, or holiday)
- Pricing preferences and upgrade ideas
Think of it as a cheat sheet — one that ensures she gets what she loves and makes your job easy.
💃 Step 1: She Stops In to Play Dress-Up
Many women love to stop in and “just browse” — and we love it too!
When someone tries on a few favorites or falls in love with a certain ring, bracelet, or pair of diamond studs, we quietly take notes and start a wish list.
We record:
- The exact piece or something similar
- Her size (so there's no guesswork later)
- Any occasion or time frame mentioned (“next anniversary” or “if he asks soon!”)
💡Pro tip: Encourage her to stop in with a friend, sister, or mom — they can help build the list and drop a few hints for you later.
🧑💼 Step 2: He Comes In — And We’re Ready
When it’s time for him to shop, we pull up the wish list and say:
“She already picked out a few things she loves. Want to take a look?”
Suddenly, he’s not guessing, not stressed, and not overwhelmed by a wall of options.
He’s confident. He knows she’ll love it.
And you get to open a box that feels 100% you.
We hear this all the time:
“That was so easy. I would’ve been lost without the list.”
🎁 Perfect for Engagements, Holidays, Anniversaries & More
Whether you’re planning a proposal, buying for Valentine’s Day, or just want to drop a hint before your birthday — a wish list makes the process smoother for everyone.
And unlike a public registry or online cart, this list stays private and personal, right here at Doland’s.
❤️ Why Customers Love It
- No awkward surprises — just meaningful, spot-on gifts
- He looks like a hero (and let’s be honest, he is)
- You get something you truly love and will wear for years
- It’s fun — and there’s zero pressure to buy during the try-on
We’ve seen women cry happy tears when they realize their fiancé actually remembered the exact ring they tried on six months ago. (Spoiler alert: he had help.)
