Tell me about your ring 💍!

Hey Ladies!
Tell me the story of your ring!
Was it a surprise? Or, did you help him pick it out with hints, or did you flat out choose it?

Mine is, a 1/2 carat princess cut. (Naturally, because I'm a princess...his words lol)
I ❤ it!
I just got finished with farm chores , when I snapped these pictures today. I'm sure it could be cleaner, but it is what it is lol.

I'm old school, my fiancee and I both feel an engagement ring is a gift.
We had talked about marriage, but I was totally surprised on Valentine's day, when he got down on one knee and popped that magical question!

The only thing I would change , is its size. After having it sized, I've lost weight due to stress, so it spins. Even with a ring guard.
Im hoping my wedding ring, will help it stay in place.

Tell me your ring and engagement story , I'm all ears.
Are you happy with your ring? Did you change it?
Did the ring influence how you felt about the proposal?

I honestly , like the fact that he picked it all by himself, just for me. I've had friends that were unhappy with their ring, so it put a damper on the engagement. I love surprises and this one was the best one yetSmiley smile

Have a wonderful day!

    I flat out chose mine ahaha. I've just always loved the Halo and cushion cut style so I wanted that. And I really wanted a Ruby so overall my ring felt kind of hard to find all the components

    I flat out chose mine! We picked a day and went to San Francisco to go ring shopping. Picked the ring and bought it together since we already shared a bank account. They had it sized and he picked it up that day. He proposed about a month later in Hawaii.

    My FW asked for suggestions. I sent her about 5 pictures of different rings that I loved! She ended up buying me the most gorgeous ring I could have ever dreamed of! It’s one of the rings I showed her a photo of, but we basically both chose it and I was totally surprised!! & it was even better than I expected!

    I understand! Just like my dress, I never had any preconceived notions.

    I pretty much find beauty in everythingSmiley smile
    I've been engaged three times total, and I never gave any input🤷

    Nothing wrong with knowing what you want! ❤

    Show me your wedding set please, I love rubies! ❤I honestly think if my Mama had been alive to help him pick, I would have gotten a colored stone. She was a huge fan of color, just like me. She had several rubies that she loved❤

    I have a halo emerald cut. And I picked mine out, slowly by dropping hints of what I liked then just taking him to the jewelry store. Good thing I did because he admitted he would have picked something way different. It’s something you have forever so I think it should be something you like.

    I pretty much picked mine out. Mine is a .50 Ashoka cut with a seamless halo. I love my ring. We went together,FH was self conscious about the size because there was a larger stone choice at the time we were shopping but I didn’t want him to stretch his budget too much. I love the setting and how unique mine is and couldn’t love it more. It was fun to be able to be there together with my FH and design the ring together. Plus it’s something I will wear daily so I wanted a little in out haha.

    Lol mine is kind of funny. At first I was set on having a pear cut with halo ting and that's what I had shown him. (Mind FH is stationed in Montana and I'm in Texas) I knew we would would go look at rings when he came home in January so my friend convinced me to go to store first amd try on what I like so that when I went with him I would know exactly what I wanted. Got there with my friend, saw a few rings (within the budget he had give me) and eventually we agreed that when I come back with boyfriend that lady would not mentioned that I had been there. A few days go by and I show up with my boyfriend and the first thing out of the lady's mouth was "HI THERE! NICE TO SEE YOU BACK!! Smiley smile" I wanted to die LOL I ended up just telling that I had been there with my friend and he just laughed about it. It turns out that I liked how a pear shape with halo looked but I didn't love it. He suggested I tried a solitaire (much bigger and double the size we were initially looking at) and I fell inlove with it Smiley smile so that's how I ended up with a 1.6 ct solitaire ring Smiley smile
