It's my fifth year, it has finally happened. I have a wedding section. What a blessing. At studio, I've been making rings since the beginning of studying jewelry at The Benlolo Jewelry Studio. Friends and family have given me the privilege of making their most sacred and precious piece of jewelry and it's been a blessing. These opportunities made me take my craft seriously from the very beginning. They validated a passion and built a career. I can't thank you all enough. From New York City, to Houston, to London, to Accra...you've all helped me build a fulfilled life.

This summer I got a call from New York Weddings about whether I wanted to do an advertisement in their Winter Wedding issue and I had to consider whether I was ready for more attention. I prayed and reflected on it and decided it was time. And what better way to start advertising, than in my own city, which has nurtured my passion. So with this ad, I'm officially in the Wedding Business!

With this next step, I am creating a whole section to cater to loved-up couples getting married. I look forward to all kinds of brides and grooms, to share in their stories and their loves. To be a part of their life stories and journeys.

I will explain jewelry, settings, gemstones & noble metals: all aspects of selecting and creating engagement rings and wedding bands. I will share client stories and pictures. Inspirations and Moods. I hope you will enjoy this section as much as I will enjoy working on it for you. There will also be a new hashtag: #charltonandlolaweddings.
