Lovely!!! Post hand shots when you propose! Good luck!
Thanks for all the kind comments, I think she''ll like it. We were able to pick out the stone together and the bare setting but she hasn''t seen it all put together yet.
We''re going on the cruise with a couple that are good friends and I think my plan is to have them sneak a tray of chocolate covered strawberries (with the ring hidden in the middle) and champagne up to the deck and hide. I will bring her up on a *hopefully* clear night and propose on the deck.
I''m always open to backup plans though in case it''s rainy etc. We''ll definitely post some shots of the ring on her finger when we get back.

It''s gorgeous! She''s going to adore it!!!! Best wishes to you both!
That was actually my original plan but Royal Caribbean wouldn''t make me a cake that said "Will you Marry me" in lieu of whatever dessert she would have ordered.
The only thing I''m disappointed with is that after doing some research here after I bought it, I may have overpaid a little bit for the rock (good deal on the setting). Also they are mailing me the GIA cert but can anyone identify if this is a cushion modified (crushed ice?) or the more traditional style?

Very pretty!
Lovely, lovely, lovely. Great work... congratulations. I''m not sure I understand your question regarding the GIA report, however, with the fancy shaped stones it has been my experience that you really have to see the stone in person to understand it''s "look," regardless of what GIA calls it on paper (for example, a "modified brilliant" can be many things). To me, based upon your photos here, this diamond does not look like "crushed ice," nor is it an "old fashioned" chunky facet type cushion. It seems like something more down the middle.

Likes it? Are you kidding? She''s gonna be over the moon when you present her with that stunner!
Careful about proposing over the sea though...

I think it looks like a nice cushion, not the crushed look! That ring will be huge on her 5.5 finger!!! How romantic to have a proposal on a cruise!
