Aesha Scott is Married: Inside the Bespoke Engagement Ring and Wedding Band by Layla Kaisi Collection
When Aesha Scott married her long-time partner Scott Dobson, the moment marked the next chapter in a love story already intertwined with Layla Kaisi Collection.
The couple celebrated their wedding in Tauranga, New Zealand surrounded by close friends and family. In the days leading up to the wedding, Aesha shared moments from her hens celebration on Waiheke Island, gathering with friends at Cable Bay Vineyards, known for its sweeping vineyard views overlooking the Hauraki Gulf.
Following the celebrations, the couple escaped for a short honeymoon in Queenstown, choosing the dramatic alpine landscape of the South Island for a quiet retreat together.
While the wedding itself marked a new beginning, the engagement ring and wedding band Aesha wore on the day had already been part of the couple’s story for years.

Aesha’s Engagement Ring + Wedding Band
Layla Kaisi Collection designed both Aesha’s engagement ring and wedding band, marking a relationship between the house and the television personality that spans several years.
As Aesha shared in an interview with Bravo’s The Daily Dish, Scott intentionally approached Layla Kaisi Collection to create the engagement ring because he knew how much she admired the designer’s work and aesthetic.
The bespoke engagement ring was co-designed in secret through a private consultation between Scott and LKC. Every element of the design was developed with personal meaning in mind, resulting in a piece that reflects Aesha’s personality and the people closest to her.
The full story behind the engagement ring and its symbolism is explored in greater depth in our featured journals:

Scott began working with Layla months before the proposal, carefully crafting a ring that would honour her family and experiences that shaped Aesha’s life. When the time came to design the wedding band, Aesha returning to LKC was a natural continuation of that story.

The Bespoke Wedding Band
Designing a bespoke wedding band to accompany an existing bespoke engagement ring requires a careful balance between aesthetic harmony and precise engineering.
In early 2026, Aesha joined Layla for a private bespoke consultation at the LKC Studio in Auckland, where the two discussed the vision and direction for creating her bespoke wedding band.
During the consultation, Aesha shared her affinity for both white and champagne-toned stones, expressing a desire for a mix of diamond cuts, including princess, round and baguette, to achieve a more varied and dynamic layout. The intention was to create a band that would complement her bespoke engagement ring while introducing its own subtle character.
The final piece was carefully designed to follow the proportions and profile of the bespoke engagement ring, allowing the two pieces to sit seamlessly together when worn. The interplay of diamond cuts and tones creates a gentle movement across the band, complementing the bespoke engagement ring while maintaining a refined sense of balance between the two designs.
Aesha reflected on the finished bespoke creation with Layla saying "I can never say thank you enough times, but thank you for my ring, it is just sooo perfect and stunning, and so my taste, i can't stop looking at it!".
After the wedding, she later remarked "but how good do these [bespoke rings] look together, im SO happy!".

The Bespoke Engagement Ring
In October 2023, Scott Dobson began working secretly with Layla Kaisi Collection to design a bespoke engagement ring for Aesha Scott. The co-authored ring would honour the journey they had already shared while symbolising the many meaningful years they are to build together.
As Aesha later shared in an interview with Bravo’s The Daily Dish, Scott intentionally approached Layla to create the ring because he knew how much she had long admired the designer’s work. The result was a bespoke design created in secret: a piece that would not only mark their engagement, but also capture the sentiment, symbolism and personal story behind their relationship.
At the centre of Aesha’s bespoke engagement ring sits a round brilliant-cut diamond secured by six distinctive claws, allowing light to move freely through the stone.
Surrounding the centre diamond is a medley of seven accent stones. Each was placed intentionally to represent the people closest to Aesha, forming a symbolic constellation of family and support around the central stone.
Among these diamonds sits a champagne-toned stone chosen to honour Aesha’s late brother, adding a deeply personal layer of meaning to the ring’s design.
The ring itself is set in an 18-carat yellow gold band, representing Scott’s role as a constant presence in Aesha’s life. Even the hidden details carry symbolism: a small diamond set inside the band represents Scott’s birthstone; a private element designed only for Aesha to feel.
Rather than following traditional engagement ring conventions, the piece was conceived as a personal narrative: a ring designed to hold meaning within every element of its structure.
Together with the bespoke wedding band, the rings form a cohesive bridal set designed to sit naturally side by side, allowing the diamonds across both pieces to create a continuous movement of light.

A Long-Standing Relationship with the Brand
Aesha’s relationship with Layla Kaisi Collection began several years before her engagement.
In 2022 she received her first piece from LKC: the Revival Signet Ring, crafted in 18-carat yellow gold and set with a custom-cut white diamond letter “A”.
The ring marked the beginning of her connection with the atelier and quickly became a signature piece within her personal jewellery collection. Aesha has worn the signet ring at several appearances, including events surrounding the Below Deck franchise.
Over time she developed a deep appreciation for the craftsmanship and design language of Layla Kaisi Collection, establishing a lasting relationship with the brand long before her engagement ring was conceived.

Aesha Wears OUTRÉ on the Red Carpet
Beyond her bespoke engagement and wedding rings, Aesha has also worn several statement designs by Layla Kaisi Collection for public appearances.
Among these are pieces from the OUTRÉ Collection, which she wore to a red-carpet movie premiere. Known for their sculptural silhouettes and striking diamond compositions, the designs reflect a more expressive side of the atelier’s work.
The pieces highlight the versatility of the brand; from bespoke engagement ring designs to bold statement jewellery worn on the red carpet.

Icons on the World Stage
Layla Kaisi Collection’s creations have been embraced by some of the most iconic women in the world, appearing on the red carpet and at high-profile events globally. From Selena Gomez and Jennifer Lopez, Cardi B to Christina Aguilera and many more, the atelier’s jewellery has been worn by women whose presence defines culture and style. These appearances underscore the house’s reputation for designing pieces that are both intimately personal and unmistakably iconic; fine jewellery that commands attention while remaining true to its wearer’s individuality.
