Photo Owner: Ben Kaplan
When Ben Kaplan, an American author and PR firm CEO, decided to propose to Virginie Eskenazi of France, he had to think outside the box: Virginie didn’t want a diamond ring and isn’t big on cliché.
But Ben had an idea: Because Virginie had once put a French twist on English idiom by telling him “I love you to the moon and back and forth,” Ben located the place in Hawaii that was closest to the moon — and then recruited a photographer to capture the moment.
Ben’s custom-made ring for Virginie, designed and forged in under two weeks, was made for the lunar setting: The ring shows the Earth and moon in an infinity loop…. going back and forth, back and forth, and back and forth again.
