Shameless Bragging...but I love this ring!

[LaurenThePartier]

Lovely new pics - I can''t wait until you give it to her!

 

[honey22]

Gorgeous!!! I love the yellow gold and the profile is fantastic! You did such a great job - she will be thrilled

 

[Shay37]

You should be proud. You did very well. Do I sense your need for some bling of your own in the future?

I''m trying to hurry up the proposal, but I kind of have to wait for our trip in Septemeber. I promise I''ll come back with hand shots though! Thanks for all the replies everybody! I am really excited about this and this forum is the only place I can vent all of this excitement so that I don''t accidentally let it slip. Thanks for listening, (or reading), and I promise no more pictures unless its on a hand.

[Tuckins1]

Don''t wait! Give that lovely ring to your lady. Who knows--she might secretly be a Lady in Waiting (see forum of the same name) and be dying for you to give her that ring

. Find somewhere special in your hometown to propose, then celebrate the engagement with your trip in September.

No, she''s not secretly a lady in waiting, though I wish she was! She doesn''t want me to propose until May, but I don''t think I can wait that long. But I do love your idea of using the trip as a celebration. I''ll have to think about that. Thanks for the suggestion!

Very pretty ring! She''s going to love it.

Shay-

I don't know if I need any bling, but as long as I can admire all the bling I give my sweetie, I'll be just fine. Although, I have looked at men's bands with some diamonds in them, and I just might go with one of those. Here's one I'm thinking about, also from Scott Kay...

You can''t wait until May!!! That ring is too gorgeous not to be worn!

Miranda-

I know, I know! I''m trying to hurry things up, but sometimes you can''t rush these things. I spent this long getting the ring that I need to make sure the proposal is just as great, which is going to take some time. I can take pictures with it on my little finger, if you''d like, but that just seems weird .

 

[firstrock]

no no, could you tell her PS''ers are dying and she needs to "get proposed" right now

.

Thats a beautiful ring though

Haha! Well I guess that would constitute being ''worn'' now wouldn''t it! Do you think she knows you have it? The effort you have put into this ring and the proposal are just the sweetest things. She is lucky to have you.

Thanks for the compliment! No, she doesn''t know I have it. I keep alluding to "saving up for a ring that I''ll get you someday" and "I can''t decide what kind of ring I should get you" and things like that. She is going to be surprised, which is exactly what I intended.

Your avatar pic (also posted) is amazing! Love the open feel the ring has. And that men''s band is NICE! Congrats on finding a great ring!

 

[AmberGretchen]

Its absolutely lovely - she will just love it

 

[Skippy123]

Snooper - that is exactly the reason I picked this setting. I loved the openness of it!

Dockman,

You replied to one of my posts a few days (a week or so) ago regarding stone size and whehte I had gond large enough!

I just wanted to say thanks for your comments, after doing sone searching and thining, and looking at pictures I am now confident that I have come up with the perfect size.

I just wanted to commment that the ring you purchased looks fantastic - it is really gorgeous!

I don''t think you need worry about hte size of the stone/s - its amazing!

[dockman3]

Joe- Thanks for the wonderful comments! I was just trying to pass along all of the help I received. I''m glad you found what you were looking for!

 

[dockman3]

I didn''t want to start a new post for a video, so I just added it to the pictures. Here''s the link to a YouTube video of my ring in the sun:

Dockman3''s ring

The video quality isn''t the best, but you get the idea.
