Finally on its way!

[wedding_crasher]

Well, the ring is done and on the way now! It''s so exciting knowing that my little package will be here tomorrow! It''s been over a month since I placed my order but there were a few issues along the way. Now it''s done and I love it...Here are the pics from WF. I will post more once I have it (did I mention it''s coming tomorrow?!?!?

). I know it''s pretty simple but that''s my girl and that''s what she (and I) both liked. It''s a modified X-prong (a combination of a ring I saw at a B&M and this one - link). I didn''t really like the standard Vatche X-prong in person either so I wanted it changed a little. I''m very happy with how it came out (hopefully even happier tomorrow).

Good luck sleeping tonight, waiting for that beauty to get here!!! and let me add how nice it is to see a guy as excited for the arrival of a custom ring as his girl

You have great taste, x-prongs of all types just make my heart jump. Can''t wait to see hand photos (promise you''ll post ''em)

 

[Demelza]

I love x-prongs. I will hopefully get my cushion set in a DVatche x-prong before the end of the week. Your pictures make me even moreeager to see my new ring!

Hope she wears this ring with joy and love!

It''s just perfect, very classic..

 

[wedding_crasher]

Thanks for all the kinds words! "Simple, elegant, and smooth" and "Very fluid and classy" and "very classic" - this is exactly what I was trying to accomplish so I guess I did ok

.

And don''t worry - I will post some pics tomorrow night. I won''t be able to get pics on her hand for a while though. She has no clue I''m getting it and she won''t be seeing it for months (if I can hold out!).

I''m still working on the proposal...I have plenty of time though so hopefully I can come up with something romantic over the next couple months. I haven''t figured out if the ring was the hard part or the easy part yet! I guess I will soon find out.

 

[Jelly]

Weddingcrasher, I bet you''ll have a hard time holding out. Somehow it doesn''t seem fair that we get to see it before she does! heehee
