You cant tell by these photos, but my ring is so sparkly! Everybody keeps joking that they need sunglasses to look at it. I cant stop staring at my hand. LOL. I am thinking about taking to back to the jeweler b/c the prongs are very noticable to me and they look yellow. What do you think?

If the prongs are something that bother YOU every time you look at your ring then definitely look into getting them fixed, but seriously -
YOUR RING IS GORGEOUS!!

I dunno if I could stand being without that beauty for any amount of time it may take to get it adjusted!! hehe...
Congrats!!

Thank you so much for all of your kind words! A dainty ring is exactly the look I wanted. I saw a very similar ring on a billboard in Athens Greece and knew that was the ring I wanted. It took a lot of searching when we got home and thank goodness we found it without it having to be custom made! Thanks again everybody!!!

Hoofbeats95, we found it at Heritage Jewelers in Rochester, NY. We looked all over and were told we would have to get it custom made. Heritage had it in their store and it was exactly what I was looking for - we didnt have to make any changes.
