Unhappy with my ring after soldering...(pic)

Emotional explosion today, but there are only TWO days until the wedding.

FH and I were running some last minute errands, one of which was to FINALLY get my ring soldered. I have had the first part of the ring since 2008. I got used to it, but I really preferred the ring with how I imagined it would look with its other half. I had this idea of how it looked...I wonder if I just put it up on a pedestal of beauty - because when they gave me back the ring...I was EXTREMELY disappointed. I wanted my old ring back.

I actually sobbed in the car. I just HATE the gaps between the two parts of the ring. I thought they would be filled in - looking up the ring online (picture) I realized, nope, that's how it's supposed to be. Every time I think of having to wear it I start crying again.

Is it that ugly? Did this happen to anyone else??

    I agree with others, you just need time to get used to it. I'm sure you're feeling this way because your expectations weren't met, but honestly, it's really beautiful!

    It is an absolutely stunning bridal set. I especially love the way the wedding ring catches the base of the diamond.

    Also I love my ring for how it looks, but I am in love with my ring for what it represents, my wonderful husband's promise to spend the rest of his life with me. The ring's meaning absolutely means the world to me, because of what it symbolizes, not because of what it cost, or how big the diamond is, or where he bought it, or whether it had one type of setting or another.

    I just seen your post and I absolutely hate mine being soldered together. There is a huge gap on just one side and it was supposed to fit perfect or so I was told. What did you do?
