Once in a long while, you stumble across a business that is so unexpected that you end up making that place your own to keep in your back pocket forever. Bridal Diamond Palace, and my long-time friend NICOLAS, is one of those places. Located in the heart of LA's Jewelery district on Hill Street, his service and loyalty to his group of followers is what sets him apart from all of the other shops in the area. I send only my closest friends and family to NICOLAS and they always all come back with the exact same sentiment "GREAT PRICES AND WHAT A NICE GUY". By the way, he's a jokester as well so he will also keep you on your toes as you shop through his high-quality selection of top tier diamond rings and jewelry. It's unfortunate that I can only give him 5 stars because BDP is more like a 7.5 star kind of shop. Here is my latest purchase for my wife. An upgrade to her wedding ring... Bling all the way home!!! THANK YOU TO MY FRIEND NICOLAS!!! read more

Nicolas is a true professional! I went on a journey of about a year for finding the perfect engagement ring and knew exactly what I wanted. I searched high and low for the right diamond, setting, price and experience. When I walked in to the Bridal Diamond Palace and started chatting with Nicolas, he actually listened and showed me what he had available. Never was pushy and never tried to steer me off what I wanted. Again, I went to many stores searching for what I wanted and the experience I had here was by far the best. To me that was as important as the ring itself because it was a first time experience for myself and wanted to find someone I could put trust in too as well as return for future service and future jewelry. This place has gained a lifetime customer and will always refer family and friends there. If you are just starting your journey in searching for that perfect piece or are on the fence because it is a little bit of a "drive".... Just do it and go. you wont regret it. - Nick B. read more

Bridal Diamond Palace - Our ring - Jewelry Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This place is awesome. We were recommended to meet with Nicolas by a family friend. My gf and I went for a consultation and Nicolas and Matet were awesome. Nicolas knew all the right questions to ask and was able to help my gf design the ring she wanted. He was also very fair with the price. I was able to purchase the ring 2-3 weeks after our initial talk and proposed soon after. My gf loved the final product. Nicolas also offered to help resize the ring afterwards if the fit wasn't perfect, but we didn't end up needing to do that. Nicolas and Matet are awesome. I highly recommend them. read more

**update on my review** Now that my fiancé is now my husband, I would like to reiterate that Nicolas is the best! After getting my diamond ring from him, we went back to get my husband's ring. Nicolas designed his ring and it was perfect! My fantastic, sweet husband, David, also gifted me diamond earrings as my wedding gift and Nicolas also assisted him on that as well. We will go to Nicolas for our diamonds (hehe) if David decides to get more (hint hint). Thank you again, Nicolas! read more

Nicholas was beyond helpful when I came in not knowing what I wanted or what to look for. He was patient while showing me lots of options and eventually ending on the perfect one! He puts no stress on you abs makes it a very relaxing experience. I will be back her for years to come, Nicholas treated me as if I was family from the beginning and I couldn't have chosen a better spot to buy from! The picture attached is from our engagement shoot featuring the ring! If you are in the market or just curious, Nicholas and his team are the people to talk to! read more

Bridal Diamond Palace - Grandfather's ring - Jewelry Near Me - Los Angeles, California

When my fiancé and I were looking for bands for our courthouse wedding, we went to jewelers all over downtown and the OC area and while they all had a lot of options, we constantly felt rushed and pressured to purchase. One of my best friends recommended Nicolas and the first time we went, Nicolas was so warm and welcoming and spent a lot of time just talking and getting to know us. We loved getting to know Nicolas and he was patient in helping us figure out what we wanted. We were also able to get our rings quickly since our courthouse wedding was fairly last minute. We'll definitely be purchasing more jewelry from Nicolas in the future and HIGHLY recommend him to anyone looking for engagement rings, wedding bands, or just something sparkly. :) read more

I had the best experience buying a custom engagement ring from Nicholas! And my fiance LOVES it!! The Diamond: I am an engineer and wanted to make sure I fully understood all the technical details around buying a diamond for my future fiance. I wanted the perfect balance of cut, clarity, color, and carat to make her finger sparkle and match my budget. Nicholas walked me through the process of building a ring, starting with the stone. He took time to patiently explain the subtle details and offer advice. He was never pushy, abstruse, or insincere. I visited his shop several times to see a selection of stones he'd found that matched my criteria, and after careful scrutiny, we found the perfect centerpiece for the engagement ring. The Ring: Nicholas was hugely helpful in choosing a ring setting, pave style, and precious metal that complimented and accentuated the diamond. The final product was beautiful! Service: Nicholas is incredibly patient, capable, and offers highly-personalized service. He really went above and beyond in his efforts to help me find exactly what I was looking for. I highly recommend visiting Nicholas if you're in the market for a ring or diamond. I couldn't have hoped for better service or for a more trust-worthy partner in this purchase. read more

Nicholas was the honest and straightforward. We save a lot of money. He was patient and gave us good insight which diamond to pick. Her smile was priceless when she saw the diamond. If I have bought this diamond outside it will cost me thousands more. Nicholas gave us an excellent deal that I cannot refuse. I was able to upgrade because of huge discounts. I highly recommend this place. 10 thumps up! read more

Nicolas is the absolute best in the biz! My husband was introduced to Nicolas through his older brother who also bought an engagement ring from him over 20 years ago. After my husband proposed with my beautiful ring (designed by Nicolas), I finally got to meet him to get our wedding bands. Nicolas is patient, no pressure and makes you feel really comfortable with your purchase. He's reliable and his prices are so competitive! At this point we've referred all our family and friends to him. From my collection of earrings, necklaces and bracelets he has it all! He is exactly what you'd want in the perfect jeweler -trustworthy, honest, reliable and knowledgeable. Look no more, you've found your jeweler for life! read more

Bridal Diamond Palace - Engagement ring and his/her wedding bands - Jewelry Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I really like Bridal Diamond Palace, so I wanted to write another review of our experience there. We've visited Nicolas and Apple a few times now. Whenever we visit, he always offers a free cleaning of our engagement ring, which is really nice since it brings the diamond back to its original sparkle. It's amazing how these cleanings make such a huge difference. This last time we came, we were looking for wedding bands. We both found one that we liked, and like before, he gave us a great deal. He even offered to do a deep cleaning (5-6 hours) this time (for free) before our wedding date! I'm not sure if he'll do a free deep cleaning for everyone, but I mention it because if you develop a good relationship with him, I think he'll really try and make your experience with him fun and special. If you're looking for jewelry, especially an engagement diamond, you won't go wrong checking out Bridal Diamond Palace. Also, after having looked at other friends engagement rings, I can honestly say that the workmanship here far exceeds others that I've seen and for a far better price. read more

My tennis bracelet and my ring were designed specifically by the owner. They are the most beautiful pieces of jewelry I have ever seen and owned! The owner, Nicolas, is the sweetest and most patient man. He wants you to choose what you prefer and does not push you to make a decision. He helped my now husband choose my engagement ring and wedding ring. I love them! I went to him for my husbands wedding band as well and he loves his band! read more

I want to thank Nicolas for helping me pick out the PERFECT engagement ring and diamond. His knowledge of diamonds and jewelry really helped me make good decisions when deciding the perfect ring. Nicolas spent the time with me to teach me about diamonds and design choices but mostly I appreciate his sincerity and very chill attitude. Ultimately, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. My wife and I come back to visit Nicolas throughout the year just to catch up! If you are looking for a terrific jeweler, I highly recommend giving Nicolas a call. read more

My fiancé (then boyfriend) and I met with Nicolas a few weeks ago and together, we created the perfect engagement ring. Nicolas is kind and funny. He didn't rush us into deciding but simply helped guide us and figured out our wants. I am absolutely in LOVE with my engagement ring and will definitely go to him for any future custom jewelry we want done. We were recommended to him by my best friend from high school and her husband. They've been going to him for over 5 years. Nicolas is the best! Trust him and the process and guarantee, you'll be beyond happy you did! read more

My fiancé will most definitely be returning to purchase me other little treasures read more

Bridal Diamond Palace - Nick is getting my wedding band and my fiancé wedding band ready now for our upcoming wedding in October - Jewelry Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Last 1st October 2018, my bf Paul surprised me with a charming engagement ring he got from Bridal Diamond Palace. Nicholas did a fantastic job to make the ring so special. It was an old ring but was made customized personally for me. It was not a big rock that can blind anyone who will see it. What makes it stand out is the deep meaning behind it. Nicholas listened and assured that all the fine details were noted. He captured the harmony, balance and the heart-shaped center of my ring. He understands the need of the customer for perfection but at the same time will not hold his honest common sense opinion to make this precious gem doable. This carefully​ designed ring is a beautiful craftsmanship​ and reminds me of timeless architecture like London Bridge and Eiffel Tower. Nicholas and his quiet secretary will make you feel welcome inside his clean and organize store. We will definitely come back for more. Thank you, Nicholas and ​the Bridal Diamond Palace for making our Engagement Day more memorable. read more

Look no further for your jewelry needs! When my husband initially introduced me to Nicolas to "look" for a possible engagement ring, I was floored by the excellent service, quality of stones and beautiful pieces. Nicolas patiently listened to what I thought I wanted but also offered suggestions, leading to an exquisitely designed custom ring. It also helped that my man surprised me by generously doubling the carat size of stones we were looking at while in the showroom! I couldn't be happier with my engagement and wedding rings and receive so many compliments on them! We've referred friends and family to Bridal Diamond Palace. Nicolas can make anything you want; just show him pictures. He's easy to work with and his prices are very competitive. read more

For someone who doesn't really know too much about jewelry, Nicolas and his associate were amazingly friendly and knowledgable of their craft. I didn't get a diamond ring, which tend to be more expensive, but even still I was shocked at how affordable my engagement ring was. Great prices, great service, and he even offered free resizing of the ring if it was the wrong size. Would definitely recommend a visit if you're unsure about what jewelry you need and need a guide. read more

I walked into Bridal Diamond Palace not knowing a thing about what to look for in a diamond. Nicolas was super helpful in teaching me about diamond and what to look for in one. Learning this helped me find a diamond that fit into my budget. I showed him a picture of a ring my girlfriend fancied and he was able to design and customize one much better than I could have ever imagined. And my now Fiancé loved it as soon as she saw it! We will definitely be back! I would highly recommend visiting Nicolas for any of your diamond jewelry needs! He genuinely wanted the best for me and my fiancé. And I could not have asked for a better experience! read more

Bridal Diamond palace was incredible. Nicholas was a wealth of knowledge and taught me everything I needed to know about my diamond.

Bridal Diamond Palace - Brilliant cut 1.5 carat - Jewelry Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This jewelry store is so awesome and the owner Nicolas is kind and caring. I bought my wedding band and engagement ring here 28 years ago. My rings still sparkle and shine. This week I bought a gorgeous anniversary ring and Nicolas had my size and the design I loved and I purchased the ring the same day. He also helped me with my great grand mothers wedding band which was too big. He sized the ring down to a smaller size and shined and glossed my ring. The staff is wonderful and attentive. I would highly recommend Bridal Diamond Palace for top notch service. read more

My fiancé spent many days and weeks customizing my engagement ring with Nicholas. The engagement ring was thoughtfully put together using high quality diamonds. From what my fiancé says, Nicholas was a great help in terms of advice and direction when he was finalizing the ring. We went to Nicholas to get a matching wedding band. He immediately showed me various options that would go perfectly with my engagement ring. The options were great, but I decided to make it customized so that my rings truly matched. He was incredibly nice and thoughtful throughout the entire process. He estimated about three weeks for it to be made, but got it done in two! The ring is absolutely gorgeous and clearly shows his knowledge and skill on creating beautiful jewelry. I definitely plan on going back to Nicholas and will recommend this place to my friends and family. When it's time for a push present, I know where my fiancé and I will be going! :) read more

Nicholas and his staff were AMAZING throughout the entire process of my new fiancé's ring purchase. From start to finish he, Michelle and Apple made sure we were both happy and that we, eh-hem, she got what she wanted. Nicholas only works with quality diamonds ... but the price for what we got couldn't have been beat by anyone. Trust me I looked. They are second to none in my opinion and I will be going back for future jewelry needs. He even fixed my watch because I was complaining about it while we were there buying the ring! Make sure to at least walk through their doors and see what they are about before making your next purchase. read more

I wish I knew about this place when I got engaged, this place is great! I was looking for someone to help me design a very specific diamond ring and bracelet. Nicolas helped me through the process, got me the exact stones I wanted and gave me the best deal I could imagine.

We went to Bridal Diamond Palace not really sure what kind of engagement ring we wanted. Fortunately, Nicholas quickly educated us on all the different diamond types, shapes and quality. He helped and guided us in designing the most awesome engagement ring ever! Its so PRETTY!! Exceeding our expectations for sure! We were in a bit of a rush and Nicholas got it made quickly, so it would be done in time for our trip to visit our family. I can't say enough good things about this guy and this business. He is a very knowledgable, trustworthy, and super personable guy. Not pushy at all! We will definitely go back for more creative, unusual, sparkly jewelry in the future. What a nice transaction. Thank you Nicholas! read more

I'm way overdue writing this review. I bought my fiancee an engagement ring a little over a year ago. I'm really glad I decided to go with Nicholas and Bridal Diamond Palace. I shopped around at a few different shops in the LA jewelry district. In the end I know I ended up getting a great deal, both price and ring that my fiancee loves. Nicholas was very good to deal with on this type of big purchase. He's considerate about making sure both the man and the woman are happy in the transaction. read more

I did sooo much research into diamonds, rings, everything. Like, too much, and it made me super paranoid about jewelers. Nicholas and Michelle understood and were extremely transparent during the whole process. The two were an absolute pleasure to work with. My fiancée told Nicholas what she wanted and he made a custom ring that was exactly what she was looking for. The ring was made quickly and at a reasonable price. Engagement ring shopping is stressful and time consuming, but Nicholas and Michelle really made it a lot more enjoyable than I expected. The best! read more
