I just received pictures from Whiteflash, of the ring that I had made to propose to my future wife!! It's been a long process of learning and researching about diamonds, designs, ideas, etc. Thanks to all you kind folks, I was able to learn about the different diamond qualities and the difference between ordering online vs buying in-store in terms of value.

I have nothing but amazing things to say about Brittany @ Whiteflash. She answered a barrage of emails from me between August and January (when I finally decided on a stone and a design). She made me feel at ease about buying from Whiteflash and made the process of picking out styles and stones, very easy!

Here it is!!

1.26ct H/VS1 RB stone
Verragio Insignia-7060 ring made in 18k yellow gold

That is beautiful!!! :love: You really did a great job! :appl: :appl: :appl:

(We tell everyone to get insurance immediately, but it is especially important when a stone is set high like that. It will be more vulnerable to getting hit on things. But that is why we have insurance so we don't have to worry!)

Thank you for the advice and don't worry, I plan to get it insured! I live in Canada (BC) so I'm not sure what insurance for something like this costs up here. Hopefully the premiums aren't too insane lol

I got to say, although personally I don't like gold settings much, that really is nice, VERY NICE!

I love how the diamond just floats in mid air a bit like a cross between a prong setting and a tension setting.

Thanks Everyone!!!!

It's been a long process, picking out a setting. She told me that she wanted something dainty and feminine but also wanted it to be unique and she like's a higher set diamond.. I think it's perfect too!! WhiteFlash definitely came through for me :D

Edit: Oh and she was very clear about the fact that she prefers YG lol
