I just ordered my own engagement ring!

Haha, that sounds kind of weird! But my boyfriend wanted me to pick out exactly what I wanted, so I ended up doing all the talking with the vendors, and he just gave me with his credit card info!

I'm feeling all jittery and can't sit still or concentrate on work!
AHK!

I decided to go with Whiteflash''s 3-stone W-prong setting, except with a Richard Homer sapphire for the center stone

I can''t wait to see how it turns out!
(And I can''t wait to have two ACAs of my very own!)

Thanks poshpepper! I love how your ring turned out!
 
Heehee, my boyfriend is sitting nearby at work and he just came over to ask when I''m actually going to do some work!

But I''m too busy being excited!!
 
That''s going to be gorgeous! Congratulations!
 
Thanks, IrishAngel!
 
Beautiful! Can''t wait to see it when it''s done!
 
What a gorgeous color! When will it be done? Rings are much more exciting than work....which is why I am here now, lol!
 
Oh wow, that is going to be gorgeous, can''t wait to see it once it''s done!!!

Hi Miscka! Hehe, I''m sneaking back in here during work too!
The paperwork says expected ship date is 8/31, but I think that might just be a place-holder date - Richard Homer hasn''t shipped the sapphire to Whiteflash yet!
So I don''t want to get my hopes up too much!
 
ooh it''s gorgeous!! I cannot wait to see it when you get it. Congratulations!!

Kaleigh, I just wanted to tell you that your pear sidestone ring is stunning!
Your ring was actually the inspiration that eventually led me to this setting!

Thanks whenharrymetsally! I hope it does turn out well!
Richard just shipped the stone to Whiteflash today - yay!!!

But I think my boyfriend is starting to feel the pressure of figuring out how to pop the question!
 
Wow, what a stunning sapphire! and i love the setting! so exciting!
 
Congratulations! That is so exciting, and your ring is going to be gorgeous! Richard Homer''s stones are amazing!

I can''t wait to see your "I''m ENGAGED!!!!" post!
 
That will be amazing! Lucky girl!

Thanks happilyeverafter!
I''m actually a bit nervous to see how well it fits on my finger!
(Last minute panic led me to get a 1/4 size larger "just in case.")
 
Yay, I love coloured e-rings. Can''t wait to see pics.

I did exactly the same, designed the ring, picked the stone, did all the leg work - and sent FI the address to send the $$ to! He knew better than to try and surprise me

, and to be honest it was still very romantic and exciting!
 
Thanks Pandora!

There''s been a bit of a hiccup in the process (posted over in Colored Stones).
Whiteflash will be sending the sapphire and setting to Richard Homer, and he''ll be having one of his jewelers set it.
Keeping fingers crossed that this is the "worst" of it!
 
I''m another that did all the research, went to see the vendor (ERD) and finalized the whole deal. Really, all BF did was send the check!

BUT...it''s okay. I didn''t mind at all...did you?

He really wanted me to have exactly what I wanted and frankly, it was the most fun and happy and exciting thing I''ve ever done. BF was there with me in spirit (we live in different states right now) and couldn''t be happier that I was happy with my choice.

It''s 3 months later, the ring is done and in my BF''s possession. Engagement is next week. YAY!!!

Your sapphire/diamond ring is going to be spectacular! Beautiful! I think we are lucky girls that we were given free range to get our perfect, dream rings!

Yay!!
