Hi all,

I got engaged last weekend! I don't have the specs for my ring (and suddenly it doesn't even matter!). But here is the story (it's very San Diego specific) and some pictures. Thank you all for your support

___________________

It was a wonderful evening. We started off at Mr. A's for sunset drinks and appetizers on the rooftop deck, then headed to Laurel for dinner. This is where we had our very first date, oh, so many years ago

After dinner we went for a stroll through Balboa park. The moon was full and low. A wedding reception was happening at the Prado. We walked until we reached the fountain, near the rose garden, and that's where Jeff got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. "I'd love to," I said and got down on my knees in my new silk dress and hugged him and cried and hugged him some more.


That's the story! I am really excited and feel very lucky. Jeff and I definitely have something wonderful.

[Snooper]

Wow, congrats on that gorgeous ring!! What kind of band will you get for it?

 

[lizz]

I am so glad to finally see it!!!! It is lovely, Tracy. You must be so thrilled and on top of the world. Love how you threw in the Tiffany box.

here''s another...

 

[tracys126]

Snooper, I am planning on getting the Lucida band that is made to go with it. They look great together. Jeff said he wants to get me a band soon for the one side, and one for the other side for our wedding day. Sounds good to me! (but I don''t wanna get my hopes up).

Liz, thanks you are so sweet!

 

[tracys126]

I''m not excited or anything

 

[Snooper]

Excited would be an understatement no?

It''s just breathtaking! And kudos if you get TWO bands from Tiffanys! Maybe one plain and one with diamonds

 

[tawn]

Congratulations...I live in SD and the Prado is so lovely and I know just where you got engaged since I was a chaperone for my son''s fieldtrip there this year!

Your ring is lovely and remember to post when you get the matching bands!

Gorgeous ring! Looks like perfection!!! Have you seen the Lucida eternity bands? I have a channel set Lucida half eternity band...and I love it.

Something to think about for a wedding band...

~~Your ring is beautiful!!!! I love the Lucida... it''s so gorgeous and classic!!

~P.S. What is your finger size (cause that baby looks huge!!!)??

 

[tracys126]

Tawn: Yes, I grew up here and used to have MY fieldtrips there too I love the park so much.

Kaleigh: Thank you! You''ve been so helpful. I appreciate it

Canuk-gal: Thank you!
Sharon: Thank you!

FireGoddess: You are the best. I remember you telling me that before. Yep, the Lucida band just takes it to the next level. I love love love that band. Did you show me pics of yours? And by the way, the ring in your icon is great!
Bling Diva: You know, this ring is perfect for me. It''s really modern and really simple (which is my favorite style - understated). But it also has the fire of a round. Everyday I love it more and more.

I am a size 5.

Beautiful ring, congratulations!!! It looks massive on your hand, what size finger are you?? Please more pictures! We don''t see too many Lucidas on here.

 

[KristyDarling]

Sorry if you''ve already answered this, but did you choose the ring together? Please share the story of how your gorgeous ring came to be!

 

[Sundial]

Congratulations on getting engaged! I love that ring. It is just gorgeous and such a classic.

 

[FireGoddess]

I may have showed you a pic of the band...I can''t remember. I''m going senile and I''m only in my early thirties.

Anyway, I LOVE how it looks with a Lucida solitaire. Here''s a pic of it back when I had my crappy rb cut solitaire.
