Engagement Rings: Expectation vs. Reality!

Did your vision for your engagement ring match up with what you actually got? FH and I got engaged without a ring, so I showed him a photo of what I wanted. He ended up getting a totally different style I wasn't expecting, but I absolutely love it! What I envisioned What FH got me!

    Yes because we looked at rings together and he had an idea of what I liked, plus I’m not super picky lol I don’t have the ring I dreamed of. He did perfectly on choosing a ring for me though.

    That ring is beautiful by the way. Not a fan of that shape typically but I like yours.

    I wanted a pear shaped halo ring in rose gold. I dropped all of the hints in the world. To the point I had him “accidentally” see it on my phone lol. When he finally proposed it was nothing like how I wanted. I was a little upset because it didn’t look like an engagement ring. However once he told me the meaning behind the ring he chose I began to love it. Now I think it’s the most beautiful unique ring and I hope to pass it down like a family heirloom.

    I wasn't picky with my ring, I just knew I wanted a band to match the size of the diamond. My fiance did perfect with it! He got the double infinity band and its exactly the size/type I pictured Smiley smile

    I gave him the idea, he brought it to life! I told him I adored pear shaped rings, as well as rose gold! He went above and beyond and surprised me with this gorgeous ring❤️ We have two simple bands for each side once we tie the knot!

    My ring had to be custom made with the sizing beads since my finger is a 3.5! Small hand gang! Beautiful rings, ladies ❤️❤️

    We picked mine out together (at the pawn shop, no shame). It’s not what I would have ever envisioned but once it was on I loved it!!

    also... these nails are stick-ons from Target, crazy right?!

    I always hinted what I wanted so I sent him countless pics (we’ve been together since high school) he found the absolute perfect ring! He couldn’t have picked anything better

    TBH I told him to keep it under $100 (major self-esteem/worth issues... heh...) and showed him LOTS of BEAUTIFUL rings under $100 on Etsy that I really loved, but he was like yyeeeaaaah no. And surprised me with this BEAUTIFUL Moissanite and white gold!
    I was so shocked at how beautiful it isss!
