GTKY: Finger Bling

awildrose

It was a topic of conversation earlier... so let's ooh and ahh over each other's jewelry!

I'll start. I love my set. I picked out the engagement band and DH picked out the wedding band. I wasn't sure if they went together at first, but now I can't imagine having anything different! 

Edit to add: my favorite part is the diamond heart on the side of the main diamond. 

Also, I want a mother's ring to stack with my set... something similar to what's pictured.

Here's mine (: DH told me one time that he got me this set because it's "petite" like me. Lol.

Ooh I'll play! My rings didn't come in a set, but I was limited to getting a band that would fit around my curved engagement ring. When my DH and I started talking about marriage, I looked through a ring magazine and circled about 10 that I loved, and told him what I loved about each one. Apparently I talked a lot about the one he got.
He went to the store and the salesman told him that the ring was actually clearanced and there were only 7 left in the nation. But the store happened to have one in the back room. So he got it for about 50% off! 
I love it because it has three diamonds, one for me, one for him, and one for our life together, and it has an infinity twist on each side.

My rings and DH's - the scalloped edges are my favorite!

awildrose

@mrsmarygs I love the infinity twist! My budgetless ring pick was a solitaire with diamond embedded infinity twists. 

@wyomama0427 I love it! Princess cuts have always been my favorite, too. 

awildrose

@Sugargirl1019 ohhhh! I don't think I've seen a scalloped edge like that before! Beautiful!

mrsmarygs

@awildrose Love that set! And the mom ring would go with it well. 
@wyomama0427 I love how little yours Is! And that's a compliment. When DH asked me what size I wanted, I gave him a maximum but no minimum. I would hate a huge heavy rock on my hand. The tiny dainty rings are my favorite!
@Sugargirl1019  What a unique look! Love the scalloped edges!

@csl522 Beautiful! I love how unique the setting is!
@Becky012016 Your wedding band looks so sweet against your engagement ring! So lovely!

DH went simple with my engagement ring and I love it. However, I hardly ever wear it now because it's high profile and gets in the way. Also, it's too big and when I wear it I worry its going to fall off. Also, it's only 4 pronged so I'm scared I'll lose the diamond. And I'd hate to have that conversation. I love my band, though. It's simple and I wear it every single day! 

Side note.. DH band is pretty awesome. We got it in Italy about 5 months before we got married. I love it. 

Sugargirl1019

@cmar1006 So so beautiful!  Mine is 4 prong also and DH tried to get it made as a 6 prong because it's more secure, but they couldnt. I understand the concern! 

cmar1006

@awildrose I love the moms ring! I really want something like that as well. Especially since I don't wear my engagement ring ever. 

@wyomama0427 that's beautiful! I love the details.

@mrsmarygs I love the antique looking rings. I always thought that's what I wanted until DH picked mine out. But yours is gorgeous!

@Sugargirl1019 that is stunning!!!

I just accidentally hit Report in this thread. I didn't mean to and I have no idea what will happen, but I'm so sorry!! I was trying to hit quote instead. Nothing really happened when I hit it, so maybe it didn't do anything?

@cmar1006 so so beautiful! Love it!

When you hit report, a popup comes up to ask you why you're reporting before it's confirmed. I think you're good plus, the BG's can read and tell the post was mistakenly reported

DH got my diamond in Dubai on deployment. It is gorgeous, and the only flaw can be seen from the bottom. The set is from Jareds and they always freak out bc theres no serial etch in the diamond when they inspect it.

kelseyrayay

This is mine but it's princess cut not cushion cut. I told dh I wanted something vintage and this is what he picked . 

iheartichi

@cmar1006 I love that!! Seriously, I love how delicate and feminine they both look. I can't find a good picture of mine and I'm in bed already (!) but I get the just wearing the band. My engagement ring is also a tad big in size and it has fallen off before, scary!! We were at a concert and it was freeeeezing, it fell 2 rows down and I freaked out. Luckily someone honest found it.

When looking for a ring, DH requested the palest sales associate to try it on so that it would look more like my hand.

kelseyrayay

This the set

jena333-2

This needs a good cleaning! But I love it. 

ETA: now my name had the -2... Huh

Doggiedoc2016

Pretty pretty rings! I also dig seeing your (what I assume are) wedding photos!

DH picked it out himself. My only request was a low setting, and its pretty low. I generally wear just my band or nothing most days though since I take them off so frequently and I'm terrified of losing them. 

*this is my first spoiler box attempt*

cmar1006

@iheartichi my heart would have stopped. Glad you were able to find it!!!

and everyone else has gorgeous rings! I love them all!!!

awildrose

Omg! The sapphires!!!

HollyGolightly09

DH picked out the engagement ring.. all I had ever told him was that I didn't want a ring that stood up off my hand a lot. Then I picked out the band. Excuse my nails, I'm about to paint them (as evidenced by the polish in the background, lol).

I can't edit my post for some reason but I dig the sapphires. And that it is the September birthstone.  That is all  

satuttle1014

Told DH what style ring I wanted and he went into the jeweler I saw the ring from and said "I want the ring, 2nd page top left corner" boom that's how he picked the style. Literally got the ring I showed him. I picked out my band (more expensive) since he was late to get the jeweler so I added a couple hundred more dollars more with the emerald and diamond band. Emerald s my birthstone (not wedding month) and fave color is green too.

These are all such beautiful rings!! Each one is gorgeous! This is mine.. I've always loved simple in terms of jewelry and DH actually paid attention  I love it so much because he picked it out himself and put a lot of thought into what I would like!

coastalmomma2

Beautiful rings, everyone! Mine is pretty simple although it is custom made. DH and I were college sweethearts. He proposed during his first year of grad school and right after I graduated from the teaching credential program. We were poor as churchmice which made this ring all the more special to me.  

angeladowns1

My custom designed beauty. ❤ After working in jewelry for five years, this is what all my ideas of a dream ring amounted to. I love it!

So many beautiful rings on here!!

jillibean0871

DH chose my eing himself, he wanted something less "traditional" then a diamond.  He was a toss up between a sapphire and a blue diamond and this beautiful sapphire and diamond ring won!  It's just perfect!

Please ignore all the junk on the floor we are in the process of turning spare room into nursery. Also my fat fingers are too swollen to get this back on so it's sitting in the jeweler box.

DH picked out my engagement ring with some help from me. I've actually only been wearing my engagement ring for a while now because I had an allergic reaction to both my wedding and anniversary bands.

Ladies, this thread is amazing! Beautiful rings, all of them. 

I love my wedding rings. DH did a good job finding them. 

EmilyE13

Everyone's rings are so pretty!

We got ours custom made at a little tiny jeweler in Chicago (where we used to live). 

sugarrush

I haven't figured out how to do the spoiler thing.  But @EmilyE13 mine was custom made too down on Jewelers Row here in Chicago

Megane15

DH picked my engagement ring out all by himself.  We had actually never had a real conversation about it, but he got it right with simple and classic.  I picked the wedding band out and it ended up being the one the store recommended go with the engagement ring.  I am happy it is 6 pronged and DH said that was intentional because he KNOWS I would have lost the stone in a 4 prong with how clumsy I am.  They're perfect and I love them!

Also IDK why I can't get the spoiler box to work, I've done it before....

ETA: the spoiler boxes....
ETA: again, the boxes, I give up.

DH and my sister picked out my ring. I think they did a great job!
