Omg -- I Love My Dh2b!!!!

[PryncessChrysty]

So I've shown everyone here the engagement ring I picked out last week, which I thought was beautiful.
Last night, my DH2B said he didn't want me to "settle", and bought me my DREAM ring (a princess cut on the trellis setting)!! I am so excited, I'm just bursting!!
Here it is ---

I know it's silly to be so excited over something so materialistic....but, I just can't help it!

Chrysty--that's the exact ring that I have wanted You are very lucky We haven't gotten to rings yet--I hate to spend the money!

So now you aren't getting that other ring? I really liked that one. This one just looks like a standard engagement ring to me.

Yeah, now I'm not getting the other ring. I hear ya, it's just a standard solitaire. But if you looked at all of the different types of solitaires, then you would see that this one actually isn't so run of the mill. I've had my eye on the Tiffany Lucida engagement ring (very similar to the pics above) ever since we started talking about marriage, which has been at least a couple of years now. When it came time to shop for a ring, I just couldn't justify the cost just to have the Tiffany name. So I looked and looked, and saw the aquamarine ring and really liked how unique and delicate it was. But my DH2B knew it wasn't what I really wanted, and he was able to find a ring VERY similar to the Lucida and got it for me! Which just makes the ring all the more special to me.

PryncessChrysty,
I'm so glad you got the ring of your dreams and I can totally understand how excited you are.
I think both the rings you picked are just beautiful.
Congratulations!

That's amazing PrincessChrysty! That is exactly what happened with me! I told my fiance not too spend too much money, but he went ahead and bought a near flawless princess cut diamond solitaire ring! I posted a picture of one very similar to mine on the engagement/wedding/promise ring page.

I saw your ring on the other thread, it's beautiful!! I'm getting a similar wedding band to yours also! The only difference is that mine has princess cut diamonds in the channel setting. Great minds think alike

Thanks everyone for you kinds words & compliments!! I should have it in a few days, I can't wait!!!

But IMO I loved the original one chosen. I'm a sucker for that vintage tacori style!! But all in all CONGRATS!!

Actually, I want mine to have princess cut diamonds in the channel setting too, I just couldn't find a picture of one on the site I got the engagement ring picture from. But your right, we both have good taste!

I LOVE your ring!! But then again I am partial to it because it's mine! I told my dh that I would really like something Not Yellow gold, no less than 1/2 carat, and Princess cut. He went above and beyond with this gorgeous ring, getting it in white gold with a 2 carat diamond! I agree with you about it not being a "typical" solitare. It's very unique looking to me. CONGRATS!!!
