hi mike nice to hear from you again.

i just wanted to say that i''ve seen this particular ring setting, and i''m really fond of it. it''s very elegant, well made, and classic. if you want something that will still look stunning in 50 years, i think you''re onto something with this style.

please - DO come back and let us know how your proposal goes, and also with a few hand shots; we love sharing the happiness of others

The centre diamond and sides look great - good job! The setting link isn''t working for me.

Hey Whitby, Thanks for all your help, Ill definitely let you know how the proposal goes. First I get to talk with her dad, which is a little scary since she is the youngest of four girls in the family haha. He is a good guy though and we get along really well so Im not too worried.
Im going to visit my girlfriend this weekend and she wants me to propose ASAP like tomorrow lol. That wont happen though I have to wait for the ring to come plus I''m planning on waiting till June 1st because will be on vacation in St. John USVI. Ill let you know how it goes and upload some pictures.

Lorelei maybe this link will work if you want to see the setting...

Go to personal section above right, scroll down and check the box to Use Custom Avatar, then click on Upload a Custom Avatar To Our System. Choose your image and make sure the image is sized to fit at 96x96 pixels, rename the image you want otherwise this can sometimes stop them loading ( name something unique). Upload the image and then it should show in place of the blue thing!

Hi Mike,
My Mother just got a 3 stone with approximately these same proportions in a trellis setting. Its quite
substantial (she has pretty small fingers though). Its a lovely setting (I got to help my Dad pick it out).
Should be a beauty!

Also, my DH and I went to St. John about 2 years ago! Loved it! Its so pretty and the snorkeling is
great! Dont miss Island Blue restaurant (Coral Bay)...they have a black and blue burger to die for!
Tyty

St John USVI? YUM! atmospheric indeed and a great memory to have.

and she''s going to love the ring - really! that''s a very substantial ring and will make quite a statement on her hand. she''s one lucky girl!

feel free to come back and upload some photos of the ring in the box - or from whatever angles you can think if when it arrives; i dont know that we can all wait till june for ''fiancee hand shots''!!
