It’s finally here, my new BGD ering!


And I am so excited to share pictures with the PS community -- thanks to y’all, I was not only able to reconnect with Brian and Lesley at BGD but I also fell in love with the beautiful Grace setting (many thanks Lynn B & B.E.G for the inspiration!).


More on my story later, but now to the good part – here are glamour shots of my ring (1.13 carat cushion)…

You see, this is actually my second ering...we purchased my first ring from Brian and Lesley at Whiteflash a little over 5 years ago. Sadly, I lost my ring just a few months before we got married. It’s long story (and it still pains me to think about it), but as you can imagine, I was just devastated. Since then, I’ve only worn my wedding band and have never asked my DH for another ring. Now, 5 years and 2 kids later, I figured it was time. My DH agreed, and alas we started our diamond search!


Without missing a beat, we went back to Whiteflash and were disappointed to find out that Brian and Lesley were no longer there. We looked around locally, but nothing was catching my eye. So we turned to the internet and quickly found Pricescope, then learned that Brian and Lesley were at BGD!


Working with the pair has been just as easy and wonderful as I remembered from their days at WF. We couldn’t afford to buy the same kind of ring I had originally, but Brian presented us with many options in our budget and every single one of them was spectacular. He is always willing to offer his expert opinion, but never once pushed us into buying any particular diamond. We took our time, and in the end, felt very good about our purchase.
I feel like a giddy newlywed all over again!

As soon as the ring comes in, I’ll post some hand shots.

Thanks for looking, everyone! I received the ring yesterday and it was everything I hoped for -- and SO much more!!

I was so distracted by it while driving, I almost got into an accident. I can''t believe I''m saying this, but I think I like it even more than my original ring that I lost (which by the way, was a 1.01c F VS1 Princess in a platinum cathedral setting).

Sorry to keep you waiting, but after putting the kiddos to bed, I finally got a chance to upload the pictures I took yesterday afternoon. Hope you love it as much as I do!

How elegant!!! Beautiful!
 
I love it with your band, looks like they were made as a set! I gasped at the picture on the white flower and then I OH''d at the last sun picture. I love the facets of the cushion. Perfection!
