Hey Guys,
I''m new to this forum, so sorry if I don''t adhere to all the forum etiquette. My boyfriend and I are both in our final year of medical school and we were planning to tie the knot next year, but being of Indian descent, the matter immediately was out of our hands once our parents got involved and we just got a call this morning that they plan to get us married in 5 weeks! (Mainly because my dad''s health isn''t doing too awesome). So, now in addition to all the whammies of planning out a wedding we have to have an engagement ring in record time!
We looked around and are most interested in a Tiffany legacy, but the pricing is just killing us...especially since we get most of our jewelry made in India and it is a LOT LOT cheaper there! There just isn''t enough time for that now and so we''ll settle for a replica now - I mean we''re still in school and it doesn''t make sense to waste our parents money - that''s my opinion.
So, after reading through a lot of the forums linked to this topic it seems that Mark at engagement rings direct is the top choice for this! Although Excel Diamonds seems within our budget too... I guess a .5 - .7 cushion center would suffice - is that the best choice for a center? I''m well aware that the Tiffany patented legacy cushion cannot be replicated...
Any thoughts/comments/help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks a lot!
