Blando's Marry Me Jewelry is a family-owned custom jeweler located in the Chicago suburbs of Countryside, Illinois, dedicated to couples, wherever they are throughout the country. When it comes to the marriage celebration, very few companies are so synonymous with the big day. Joe Blando first opened the doors back in 1912, and today, Gino Sr. and Gino Jr. are carrying on the tradition of sculpting stunning, one-of-a-kind rings and sourcing diamonds and gemstones from around the world.
Whether you want:
-A traditional, classic solitare band with a round brilliant cut natural diamond
-A romantic vintage inspired band, with a cathedral bridge and a princess cut diamond
-An eclectic hand engraved art deco band with a dutch marquise
-An elegant pave band with an emerald cut bezel
We can do it all. High settings, low settings, yellow gold, white gold, natural diamonds, lab diamonds, and colored gems. You name it.
Before the work gets started on your custom engagement ring or wedding band, the team at Blando's Marry Me Jewelry will meet with you to discuss your ideas. They want to know all about your partner, your love story, and the life you plan to build, ensuring they create a ring that truly showcases the uniqueness of your bond. Master jewelers then use CAD technology to design your ring for approval before they get to work on manufacturing, engraving, and personalizing a ring you will cherish forever.

Gino brought my custom vision to life!!
My fiancé’s family has worked with Gino and team for years. When it came time to design my ring, he knew there was no one better to turn to...
than Marry Me Jewelry. Gino bent over backwards to ensure the ring was perfect! We live in Minneapolis and with COVID, traveling was not an option. Gino FaceTimed with us to ensure our custom ring was everything I dreamt of. It was beyond what I imagined!
I threw so many ideas at Gino and he explained how everything would come together to ensure it all worked.
In addition, I brought a family heirloom (a ring from 1912) to be sized up at least 3 sizes. It turned out beautiful and fits perfectly. The delicate character was kept in tact and it will be my “something blue” on our wedding day.
I frequently receive compliments on my ring and it makes my smile every time I see it! I am so grateful for this team and couldn’t recommend them enough if you are looking for a truly special piece.

My fiance purchased my engagement ring at Marry Me Jewelry. Gino helped my fiance design the ring and it is absolutely beautiful. Gino is professional, well-informed and very ho...
nest. I had Gino size and provide appraisals for two antique diamond rings. He sat with me and explained the entire appraisal process. He answered my questions and was a pleasure to work with. We are getting married in July 2020 and look forward to having Gino design our wedding rings. Marry Me Jewelry is my now favorite jewelry store. I highly recommend Gino and his beautiful store. You will not be disappointed.

Gino at Marry Me Jewelry helped my husband design the most beautiful engagement ring. People are always complimenting it and telling me they have never seen one quite like it. He ...
was super helpful when I needed the sizing to be perfect and has adjusted it for me several times. Gino and his family also designed jewelry for my husband's parents and grandparents, so going to Gino has become a family tradition. We went back to Gino for our beautiful wedding bands and plan to keep going back for more.

Mr. Gino Blando truly made the experience of finding an engagement ring an easy and exciting experience ! He is very knowledgable in the subject of diamonds and their qualities, ...
and even taught us a lot about them when we came in. When we came across blue fluorescence diamonds, we decided that this was an amazing quality we didn't want to pass up the chance of getting for her engagement ring. These type of diamonds shine and glow blue when hit by a UV light, and even continue to glow in complete darkness for a short time afterwards, after a "charge" of UV light. The engagement ring is especially fun and wild when we go cosmic bowling or out to a bar where they utilize UV lights. We had the option of customizing the engagement ring and put in a sparkling array of blue fluorescence diamonds ! He didn't try to sell us something we didn't want and rather was a helpful innovator of utilizing those bright blues in the ring. We got the engagement ring she's always dreamed of, but even better !

Gino at Marry Me Jewelry is fantastic. Friendliest guy ever along with his wife and staff. The shop may not look like some fancy wedding ring shops on the outside but you will have...
a remarkable experience, I promise. My fiance took a picture of the engagement ring I wanted in, and Gino made it for less money, added more diamonds, and better quality ones at that. When it came time for bands he made one based on my description of what I wanted from scratch and it's gorgeous. I get a lot of compliments on my rings about how great they look. You can take your rings to get cleaned whenever you want and he even offered that my bridal party come in to get any jewelry cleaned for free the week of the wedding. When I go in i get little perks like free jewelry cleaner to take home and whatnot. Just a little reminder that they appreciate their customers. I completely recommend Marry Me, you wont be disappointed!
