SAY I DO WITH EVSTENROOS
The COVID-19 pandemic may have changed wedding plans for many but it hasn't cancelled love. Brides and grooms are still finding creative ways to celebrate their commitments to one another, and we are honoured to be part of these stories. EVStenroos provided custom rings for a Boho Glamping Elopement (editorial shoot) in Olds, Alberta; including a two-toned set showcasing current trends — contour bands and delicate vintage-inspired stackable rings. Inspired by the beautiful Lotus Bell tent by Lavish Canvas, the ceremony space was brought to life with unique vintage glassware, beautiful macramé chandeliers, lush florals, pouf seating, fur, and vintage trunks and décor.
Looking for high-end, ready made jewellery for a special occasion? EVStenroos offers customizable, high-quality bling made in sterling silver, starting at $75.00. For a full catalogue, email

EVStenroos was also part of of a rustic opulent wedding for Mr. and Mr. in the rolling foothills of Southern Alberta. Rustic, vintage decor was paired with modern details and pastel florals for an elegant, dreamy setting (complete with pies and a "Mad Men" inspired bar, which featured EVStenroos sterling silver straws). Our inclusive and diverse team is proud to support the LGBTQ2+ community, and to be part of such a special day for these two love-birds.

WORK WE LOVE: SPICING THINGS UP WITH CONTOUR BANDS
When Linda Lewington met Ellinor years ago during a night out with mutual friends at the Calgary Stampede, she was smitten with the designer's jewellery.
"I really liked the jewellery she was wearing and when she told me she designed it all, I had to get her card."
The two then began working on re-vamping Linda's mother's engagement ring—a platinum band with an emerald cut diamond in the center and baguettes on either side.
"My mom had been asked why I wasn't wearing the ring. Even though it was nice and dainty, it wasn't my size or style; but Ellinor gave me a ton of ideas on how to tweak it."
Instead of taking the ring apart and redesigning it from scratch, Ellinor sent Linda an assortment of contour bands to look at. These bands would go on either side of the ring, transforming it into a right-hand ring.
"It's a very popular trend right now," says Ellinor, "but also a very clever way to make a ring-set more impactful."
Linda chose two gold bands with baguette diamonds to encase her mother's engagement ring.
"I'm so happy and thrilled with the finished piece. I wear it most days. Having it means even more to me now that my mom has passed away. It isn't easy finding someone you trust to take care of your heirloom pieces, but I found that in Ellinor."
Linda also recruited Ellinor's services to help redesign her wedding and tenth-anniversary ring following her divorce.
"I wasn't sure if I wanted a pendant or another ring, but I finally decided on one of Ellinor's award-winning Bird Nest rings. It was a perfect idea. Now I have two unique pieces to alternate between, and pass on to each of my children."
