I am curious to know how much input you had on the design/style of your engagement ring? Did you buy it together? show your fiance your hidden pinterest board and leave him to it? Agree to use a family heirloom? Not get a ring at all?
After we started talking seriously about getting married, I showed my fiance my engagement ring pinterest board. It was a lot of delicate, thin rings with halos like these:
Well... after I showed him I went window shopping and discovered delicate halos like the ones I liked were very difficult to get in Australia and most of what you could get was clunky and ugly and didn't suit me at all! I was so afraid I'd get exactly what I wanted and I'd hate it!
thankfully, despite looking at the board, my sweet fiance only really saw the colour, haha! He bought me a beautiful three stone peach sapphire which is a lot more classic and timeless than what I'd been looking at, and is a beautiful mix of his style and mine, and now whenever I look at it, I'm thinking of us both!
