I''m so elated! We are engaged!!!!!!!!!!!!

[blueroses]

MarLO, you are a rockstar!!! I was just surfing through the old threads to find that very info!!

I LOVE how *I think* you can see a hint of that faint blue flor tinge in that last picture--it is just AMAZING!!!! Glacial!!

OMG!!! Dazed,

That ring is breath taking! It looks so much bigger than a 1.45! I thought it was at least a 2ct before reading Marlo''s specs. Congrats on the engagement!

That story was so sweet. I almost cried when reading it. He was so thoughtful to plan out the evening that way. I liked the part where he tricked you....I would''ve fallen for the lie too...hee

But your ring! WOW!!!

It is really really beautiful. I''m so happy for you and your fiance. I wish you a healthy, happy, and properous life together.

MarLoRey --> Thanks for adding the info. the tcw is actually the 3.01 number. The appraiser gave me a different number for the setting than WF, but I figure WF set it so they must know, and with the pave it''s hard to tell the weight I guess.

Another fun fact, the pave on the ring is made up of 4 different sizes of WF "cut above" diamonds.

So it''s not 3.02 (melee) + 1.45 (center) = 4.47 ?

3.02 includes the center stone?
3.02 = 1.45 (center) + 1.57 (Melee)
Still Stunning!

Thanks so much eveyone!!! I am so thrilled with the ring and even my fiance (love saying that) can''t wait to get home from work so he can see it. He actually asked if he could bring it to work with him today, and I really think he was only half kidding. I told him he would have to bring me in too if he wanted to show it off.

I had my first trip out with it today and I turned it around because I was so nervous, I can''t wait to get the insurance settled.

Mara --> You have very detailed dreams, you even knew the carat weight in your dream? That''s crazy!

My ring finger is a 5.5 apparently, I got a 5.75 and it''s kind of big, but I think I like it that way. The setting just makes it look so huge, I even think it looks enormous in it''s actual size, not just in the blown up pictures I posted.

I am going to my cousin''s wedding this weekend (she is three years younger than me) and my whole family will be there, I can''t wait to show it off. (Not too much, because it is her day!)

It is actually sunny out now so I am going to try to take a picture on the roof to see if I can capture the sparklies.

congratulations! your ring is beautiful!!!

""He actually asked if he could bring it to work with him today, and I really think he was only half kidding. I told him he would have to bring me in too if he wanted to show it off. ""

i had to laugh at this...the day my husband received our ring he took it to his office to show off! i was appalled when he proposed two days later and told me the story!
