Hi all! I've been waiting for this day for 14 1/2 years (since I liked my original engagement ring for approximately 6 months before I hated it). I had my original engagement ring stone reset to look a little more modern and a little more 'me'. We got engaged and married so stinkin young that I didn't have a clue about diamonds nor did I really care. But I've never liked my rings at all and you should LOVE your wedding rings, am I right? As time has marched on, a marquise cut in yellow gold with baguettes just screamed "Look at me! I got married in the 90's, ya dig??"

I went through a local jeweler here in West Palm Beach and am so beside myself happy with the results! I feel like I am engaged all over again. :D I found pricescope during this process and lets just say that I'm now beyond obsessed. You people have given me jewelry fever!

Here are the deets and then I'll post some phone pics:

Wow, what a change!! It looks AMAZING on you! :appl:
 
That's amazing! It looks like a totally different stone!
 
Oh my goodness! I LOVE your new rings! I am starting to want an E-W marquise. :love:
 
Flipping heck, they couldn't look more different if you tried! I absolutely LOVE what you have turned your set into! :love:

How unusual to have the pink sapphire band with the new marquise setting - it looks simply stunning. I have never seen another set like that :sun:

Congratulations - well worth the wait. Enjoy them! :))
 
What an amazing transformation! As gorgeous as your ring is, I see a tidal wave of marquise owners rushing to reset just like that!

Beautiful reset!! Congrats!
 
It is absolutely amazing! Love your new ring and the idea of it all!

Enjoy all the sparkles and welcome to PS where the dreams never end - ha!!

We would enjoy 150 more pictures of your new pretty!
 
I don't usually say this word... But I gotta say it! Amazeballs!!!! What a transformation!!!!! I love what you have done with your new ring! Perfection in every way! From the halo to the horizontal setting! Marvelous!
 
I really like your old setting, even if it does date me right along side you :)
But honestly, the new rings are stunning!!!
 
Wowza! That is such a great change!!!! The halo is amazing!! Loooove the pink wedding band! Just divine!!! Congratulations! I am so happy for you! :appl: :appl: :love: :love:
 
It is beautiful I love it! :love:

P.S. details on the pretty pink band please! :D

^ woops! Nevermind! Just saw the details at the bottom of your post!

Its gorgeous with your marquise! 8-)
 
I ADORE EW settings!!! So very perfect and beautiful :love:
 
Oh are y'all just the BEST or what??!! You know how to make a new girl feel good. Thanks so much for all the sweet words, I'm so grateful to find a crew that will feel my joy a bit.

Not sure why all the pics turned up sideways? Hmmmph....I will take some real camera pics tomorrow!

I am so so thrilled with the rings. I went for the pink band after seeing Blake Lively's loverly little number...well, there's a reason her set was $2 million ha! My jeweler said it would be next to impossible to do pink diamonds, hard enough to get the sapphires. Love the mix match look, love the daintiness...just so excited.

I'm planning to turn the baguettes into some sort of band to mix in there too...not sure exactly how or when. My hubs is super sentimental and wants every piece of the original used. He was so frustrated that they didn't melt the actual gold from the original to mold into the new ones. 8)
 
Gorgeous! I love it. What a difference. Glad you can wear your ring with a smile!

The marquise set horizontally is really unique.

Enjoy and wear it in good health.
