They''re done - the wedding set of AmberGretchen

[AmberGretchen]

I can''t believe I have to wait until next July to wear both rings

I snuck these pics while FI was at work, I hope you enjoy them. For those who don''t remember the specs, the center stone is a 1.12ct G SI1, GIA-cert ideal cut with nice hearts and arrows patterning (although you can''t see them in any of these pics unfortunately

), bought from a local jeweler in SF, CA. The e-ring setting and wedding band are made by Signed Pieces - small diamonds are 0.025 ct each, shared-prong, set in platinum, F-G color, VS clarity, ring size 6.5. Isaac at SP even engraved the e-ring and wedding ring for us free of charge. I think it was worth parting with my e-ring for 3 weeks so he could make them match - what do you think?? (Sorry for all the pics - I''m a little excited, can you tell?)

Oh it''s just gorgeous.
Sorry you have to wait so long to wear them. But it gives you something lovely to look forward to.

TRUST ME, it will go quicker than you think!

What a FAB wedding set! I LOVE shared prong rings. I may have to ditch my pave one of these days **sigh**

You go girl! Beautiful!

Beautiful! July 2006 will come soon enough. In the meantime you can sneak peeks & wears when your fi isn''t around.

Congratulations!!

 

[AmberGretchen]

Thanks you guys - you are so sweet! And somehow I doubt I will resist the temptation to sneak peeks

~~AmberGretchen, I love your wedding set!! Signed Pieces has some beautiful settings, and yours is a prime example!! Congrats!!

 

[Sundial]

Your wedding set is absolutely breathtaking - wow!!!

 

[MissAva]

Perfection!

 

[HOUMedGal]

I think that center stone is totally bigger than 1.12....are you SURE you didn''t read that cert wrong???

GORGEOUS!!!!!

 

[AmberGretchen]

Thanks everyone - such nice comments, you could almost make a girl blush

HouMed - its definitely just a 1.12, and sadly shrinkage has set in big-time since I got it. Don''t get me wrong, I ADORE my ring and even when I do get an upgrade I will keep this stone because its gorgeous, but I keep wondering if it might look better with a bigger stone...maybe 1.5...or 1.75...or maybe just straight to 2 ct because you''re so close why stop

Unfortunately, FI and I are saving for a place of our own, and he will need a new car soon, so I don''t think an upgrade is in my immediate future, but definitely at some point!

 

[flutterby]

That is a beautiful set, must have been difficult to part with the ering, but well worth it. It looks perfect!

 

[Jelly]

Oh why stop at 2? Go to 3c!!

 

[DonaBella]

Your ring set is absolutely STUNNING!!!

I hope someday to have something close to as nice and blinding as yours!!! July 2006 will be here b4 you know it...in the meantime, when he''s away, you will play!

 

[fancyrock]

I love your wedding set!!! They are beautiful.

I''m not a fan of round diamonds, but I''m begining to like it more and more. I might just go get a fakey for the heck of it....For $50, just to satisfy my urge of having a "fun bling-bling" to play with.

 

[allycat0303]

Amber!

It''s beautiful! I love the eternity wedding sets... I''m jealous. It looks incredible on your finger. Congrats!

 

[MissGotRocks]

Very pretty. . . at least you get to wear one half of the setting now! It is beautiful!
