Finally Out of Lurkdom

[annieg1959]

Firstly a Big hello to all and a Great big thank you for a wildly informative site. I joined your site about 3 months ago after losing my wedding set

and beginning the search for replacements. After reading literally thousands of posts and searching vendor websites like WF and GOG I felt informed enough to start really talking with vendors about what I wanted. I decided on GOG for the diamond and settings. Jon, Marie, Vickie, Charles, Sarah and Christen were absolutely fantastic! This was all done via e-mail and everyone of these people were very quick to respond (a HUGE thank you to Christen who took pics of the finished rings yesterday in a very short-handed office

) !!! Ya''ll really made this project easier than I''d ever imagined and my rings are just gorgeous. The settings are Irina''s Vatche Swan in platinum with the matching wedding band! Stats on the diamond...

Welcome Annieg, what a gorgeous gorgeous ring!!! Congrats, I am sorry you lost the other one. This one is sooo beautiful!!!

Thanks Skippy, It was my own fault! I lost quite a bit of weight and didn''t take them in for resizing in time. Just fell off somewhere never to be found again...
