and we would match it with a simple diamond pave band and then another either saphire and white diamond band or a black and white diamond band so that it would match his black titanium and white diamond wedding band..

thanks everyone

we matched up this look at the jeweler and they look amazing! others may not like it but i do and we may not go saphire like i said we may go black diamonds.....opinions?

 

[diamondseeker2006]

Wow, your ring is going to be beyond wonderful!

I love the Tacori rings, and I think sapphires and diamonds are just gorgeous. But I have to tell you that I don't think that the Faye Cullen rings are equal to the quality of Tacori. I'd check and see if Tacori makes any with sapphires and if not, check out Beverely K (and I am sure there are others that are high quality). Black diamonds are neat for some pieces of jewelry, but I can't imagine putting them with a Tacori e-ring. I think of them for men or in fashion jewelry for a woman. I think you'll be much more pleased with sapphires.

ETA: found an example of a Beverley K ring. You may find other styles at other vendors as well. You can call and get a price for platinum, if you go with platinum for the e-ring

i know we wont go with the fay cullens but those were the style of wedding rings i was loking at...i have yet to see black diamonds but if anything i will stick with saphires that are gorgeous!

thanks!

 

[Tacori E-ring]

I know Tacori will make the ring you want with sapphires instead of diamonds. I am not sure if they use black diamonds (I know they use yellow). It wouldn''t hurt to ask. I love the setting you posted. It is so elegant.

 

[DMBsGirl]

omg, 2.5-3 carat asscher?!?!?!?! You lucky lucky girl!!! Can''t wait to see it!

 

[emilina22]

thansk every one i know.....i cant wait either but ill have to its just reasurring that we have an amazing stone with an amazing history....

 

[kohdy]

Emilina!

Congratulations on the stone! Wow.. you really are a lucky girl to be marrying into such a wonderful family! But I am sure he along with his family feel lucky to have you as part of their family too! The Tacori setting you''re looking at is absolutely beautiful. Like others have suggested, you should get a wedding band from Tacori to match your ring. It will be so fantastic!!! Please keep us updated on this fairy tale!

 

[FireGoddess]

Congrats on the stone - can''t wait to see what you end up setting it in!

I''d go with black sapphires rather than black diamonds.

Black sapphires are sparkly and glassy looking, whereas black diamonds are opaque and look like bits of pencil lead.

I have seen some nice ones - but we are talking perfect 2-3ct size with am amazing setting using lots of tiny pave to give sparkle.
