We''re doing it. I just sent WF an email for an official quote. We got one back in June initially, but we weren''t ready back then. So I''m hoping it won''t have gone up since then.

Trying not to get too excited but.............

and

!!!!

 

[FrekeChild]

Yay!!! What is it going to look like?

 

[Dreamgirl]

Yay!!!!!!!!

 

[Lauren8211]

Awesome, sunnyd! Does that mean we have to try and get a new listkeeper soon???

Oh, and feel free to get as excited as you want. Don''t hold back!

 

[sunnyd]

I guess I could....I think I might just hold out for James to come back. He''s good too. Plus BF is in a sort of ''holy crap'' kinda mode right now, so 2 days would let us calm the hell down. Hee!!

Okay here''s the stone:
.48 OMC
F VS1
64% D 53% T
1.20 L/W

 

[BabyBrown]

Very, very cute!!!

 

[Sparkalicious]

SunnyD!!! That is SOOOOO exciting. I''m happy for you ... Your diamond AND that setting are GORGEOUS! I can''t wait to see pics of the finished product.

If you are still in Seattle, you may wish to give Gemological Trading Corp or Seattle Diamonds.com a call for a quote as they do amazing work and have phenomenal pricing & service ... especially for a B&M. That is where our jeweler, Mary (fantabulous, by the way), is and is where we got my ering and that is where we will be having our bands made/purchased.
They are located right downtown off of Denny beside The Pan Pacific Hotel.
Here is a link to their website ... don''t judge their abilities by the crappy website design. http://www.seattlediamonds.com/contactus.php
Just providing the info as an option for you, if you are interested, as having dealt with WF myself, I know that they are terrific too ...

I can only imagine how you feel b/c I was SO excited seeing this thread ... Whatever happened with Green Lake Jewelry Works? I thought that you were considering having your ring made there. I popped in for a visit there the other day, for the first time, to check out what they had and was a little disappointed, it probably would have been more exciting if we were just starting out and designing a ring.

Good luck - Keep us updated!!!

 

[CNYHopeful]

So exciting, SunnyD!

Keep us posted!

I love the party smiley icons!

 

[FrekeChild]

So what are the dimensions of the stone (don''t mind me, I speak "colored stones" language)?

I''m so excited for you!!!!!

And what kind of wedding band do you think you''d want?

 

[sunnyd]

Thanks SDL! I found it right here on PS! It was in the Diamond Listings, which I had been stalking for months.

Hey Spark! GLJW was awesome to work with, but unfortunately their quote was double what WF was.

So since that's been such a huge factor for us, we're going with them!

Freke, it's going to match their Petite Open Cathedral band if it's possible. Blingin blangin! And it's 5.20x4.34.

 

[Keepingthefaith21]

Oh yeayyyy!!!!!

I am so happy for you!!!

 

[Rhea]

Nice stone! Congratulations on the big step forward!

 

[katamari]

Hooray! Hooray! What great news, sunnyd!

 

[SailorsSweet<3]

[ckrickett]

oOoOooooOo congrats!
