Prepare to cringe.

If you sell lot of engagement rings, you might be accustomed to handing out a few tips on how to propose.

Well, here’s something you can advise hopeful grooms NOT to do.

Inside edition reports that Isaiah Adams decided to propose to his girlfriend, Grace, at a Maryland waterfall. She happily said yes, but when he went to give her the ring he’d selected, things didn’t go so well.

The jewelry tumbled into the waterfall and hasn’t been seen since.

His girlfriend told the TV program: “I was crying with happiness but then I was crying with fear all at the same time.”

It’s not all bad, though. They still plan to get married.

This Third-Generation Jeweler Was Ready for Retirement. He Called Wilkerson

Retirement is never easy, especially when it means the end to a business that was founded in 1884. But for Laura and Sam Sipe, it was time to put their own needs first. They decided to close J.C. Sipe Jewelers, one of Indianapolis’ most trusted names in fine jewelry, and call Wilkerson. “Laura and I decided the conditions were right,” says Sam. Wilkerson handled every detail in their going-out-of-business sale, from marketing to manning the sales floor. “The main goal was to sell our existing inventory that’s all paid for and turn that into cash for our retirement,” says Sam. “It’s been very, very productive.” Would they recommend Wilkerson to other jewelers who want to enjoy their golden years? Absolutely! “Call Wilkerson,” says Laura. “They can help you achieve your goals so you’ll be able to move into retirement comfortably.”
