Hi everyone - I just wanted to thank everyone for their great advice. My fiance had gotten alllllllllll his great ideas from this board and without asking me once he chose a beautiful ring that i love and couldn''t be more impressed by. Now the hunt for the wedding band begins and I am learning all I can. Here are some (terrible) pics!!

Well, I''d say he was a good student! That is a beautiful stone - - in one of my favorite settings!

 

[beechezz]

gorgeous ICU!!!! he did a phenomenal job!

 

[ICUdiamond]

Thank you everyone!! It''s a 1.53, color I, excellent cut, polish and symmetry, VS1 - i adore it and the simple design. I was wondering, would a 5 stone wedding band detract from this since it''s set pretty low? i always thought i would want a higher setting, but this is the perfect medium height. It doesn''t snag on anything and helps me at work where i change gloves very often. I love its versatility!

 

[atroop711]

no a five stone wouldn''t detract...just get the 5 stone in a low setting...like a u-prong setting. I have a u-prong eternity band and I can''t tell you how I love the way it sits really low and comfy! congrats...the ring is beautiful!

 

[ckrickett]

what a classic stunning solitaire.
I love it, really shows off that GORG stone!

 

[ICUdiamond]

A-troop - do you have any pics of your uprong??

Vespergirl - i love your eternity - do you have a low or high setting?

 

[tyty333]

That is beautiful! Congratulations on your engagement! I have a 5 stone (see avatar) but it sets high...my
ering is a cathedral setting. Facets makes a very low setting but I''m thinking the facets setting wouldnt go with
your beautiful setting. I think the facets setting would be too wide. Plus, facets only comes in plat...not sure
what your ring is but here is the link so you can take a look.
