Well I have heard many different opinions on this so I thought I would post it on here.
First of all the question
Would you rather pick out your own setting, or have your boyfriend pick it out?
Now for the background info. My girlfriend wants to be somewhat surprised, but when I have made her go in a jewelry store she has had some pretty distinct likes and dislikes. In other words she has an look she is after, but she isn''t willing to tell me all the details. I want this to be very special and I don''t want to seem like I haven''t done the work, but I also don''t want to pick something out she won''t be 1000% happy with.
I am about 50/50 right now on going with designing the setting myself based on what info she has given me, or just putting it in a simple cheap band and showing her all my research and thoughts and letting her do the final design.
Here is the stone if you didn''t see my other thread.

What are your opinions? I really want to ask her sister but if I did she would tell her in about an hour, she is terrible at keeping secrets and they talk about three times a day.
Thanks for your thoughts
