"From its humble beginnings in 1978, dmg has evolved in the last three decades to become one of the most popular and unique jewelry and craft galleries in Massachusetts. Located in downtown Northampton, the gallery features an outstanding collection of museum-quality crafts and designer jewelry from over 300 artists. It has received many industry awards including American Craft Retailer of the Year, Coolest Small Store and Top 10 Designer Retailers {Jeweler's Circular Keystone}.  The gallery offers a large collection of bridal jewelry including engagement rings, wedding bands, and jewelry for the bridal party.  Other services include custom design, jewelry repairs, engraving, stringing, and gift registry."

How did you come to do what you do?

I started working at the gallery in 2000 while attending grad school at UMass Amherst.  I became the gallery manager soon after receiving my Master's in Art History and have been here ever since.  I assumed ownership of the gallery five years ago when the previous owner retired. MM

What is your favorite part about your job?

The favorite part about my job as owner is discovering new artists to represent at  dmg.  It's amazing what creative talents exist out there!  Equally, I love helping connect our customers with handmade merchandise, whether it's bridal, jewelry, glass or homegoods.  It's great to be able to tell the artists' stories and working with people who genuinely appreciate handcrafted works of art. MM

What makes you stand out as a wedding vendor?

Here at dmg, we carry a large collection of engagement rings and wedding bands.  We offer both traditional styles and unique designs in a wide range of prices.  We have your go-to platinum and gold rings, but also more artisan rings made of meteorite and damascus steel.  We also have a designer on staff for all your custom needs.   Whether you have a specific design in mind or want an unusual ring, we have it. MM

What is your favorite part of the wedding planning process? Or, more specifically, what is  your favorite part about the big day of the wedding?

Unlike other wedding vendors, I don't get to physically be at the wedding helping the couple prep for the big day.  But helping couples choose their wedding band (or engagement ring) is a really special moment and we cherish every one of our customers that have chosen their rings with us. MM

What’s your favorite advice to give to clients for their wedding day?

Let's see...relax, be happy, and don't forget to eat :). MM

What are you most excited about for this season? (other than Valley Wed, of course).

I'm always excited to help new couples find their rings.  I love the process of getting to know them and finding out about their big day!  I also love helping customers find the perfect wedding gift this time of year. MM
