Hello everyone,

I started on this forum about 2 1/2 months ago just to get advice and more knowledge about engagement rings. I posted a few threads and everyone here was so helpful. I also found whiteflash.com on this forum. I saw the custom rings that they made and I was inspired.

To keep things short, I found so many great ideas and I called whiteflash.com and spoke to Tracy. For 2 1/2 months she helped me through picking a diamond (which was quite challenging) due to my strict budget and also giving me advice on my custom design.

All in all I picked up my ring on Saturday and proposed on Sunday. I will just say that I think that my new fiance did not even here what I was saying once I pulled the ring out of my pocket. She didn''t have a clue that I was going to propose that day and did not expect the gallery setting and the halo on the ring.

I would like to wish whiteflash.com the best of luck, and I really hope that to anyone that is looking for that custom piece please do not hesitate to give Tracy a shout.

I will post a pic that whiteflash sent me before they sent the ring out (hopefully I will update with actual pics on my fiance''s finger.) I will also post a pic of my proposal video that my fiance made. I was really sneaky in recording our moment.

I hope that everyone likes it...

First, congratulations on your engagement! The ring is positively lovely, so unique and gorgeous. What an unexpected setting for a marquise...I'm not usually a huge fan of the cut, but I'd love that ring nonetheless! What I can see of the gallery it's just amazing, and the halo is perfect. I bet your fiance is over the moon! Congrats again!

Oh and I almost forgot, I saw the post on youtube...so sweet! I loved it, it really moved me!

What a beautiful ring. I really like it's uniqueness.

BTW, I watched the video, it really brought back memories of how I felt when I was proposed to. Gosh, moments like this are what make life worth living.

Congratulations on your engagement and I wish both of you a very long and happy life together.

So unusual and elegant. How lovely that is was a surprise. Congratulations! Any thoughts on what type of band she would like to put with it?
