Okay, ladies (and gents,) last one for now! I have officially run out of battery power on the camera, so I guess that''s my cue to take a break! I was so excited to get the pictures up on here that I guess I got a little carried away! Sorry if I put too many up and am boring you!

Thanks for all of your kind words! I was very hesitant to purchase this stone because I know the measurements are not ideal, but I fell in love with it the first time I saw it and knew it was "the one!" Your compliments really make me feel good about the choice I made!

Beautiful!!!!!!! That huge rock looks great with that wide band. And you have such long and slender fingers that the wide band looks perfect!!!!!

Congrats!!!!
Thank you, poshpepper! All the jewelers but the one I ended up going with said what an outdated look I was choosing, etc... I took that to mean "CLASSIC"!!!

Hi beau,

I looked everywhere for bands like these, including Shane Co., Jared, and some other very reputable jewelers in the Sacramento area. I was highly disappointed at most of the stores. I ended up going back to the first place I looked...their quality was so much better than any of the other stores that there was just no comparison.

I had the e-ring made and purchased both diamond bands at Guzzetta & Co. Fine Jewelers in Roseville, CA. They came in 1/4, 1/2, 3/4 & 1 carat bands-mine are a 1/2 C each. I have been dealing with Gary Guzzetta, who is on vacation until next week...he is one of the sons in the family owned business, and he was wonderful to work with. PM me if you would like their number...I can also get you the product # when I go to get my rings re-appraised tomorrow morning if you would like...just let me know!

The bands are very, very smooth and sooo comfortable to wear...I love them! When we get married, I am going to get one band soldered to my e-ring and then keep one separate to wear when I don''t want to chance my "rock" as my FI calls it...I prefer to call it my big "honker!"

Hope that helps!

Angeline,

I thought it looked bigger than 10mm!!! Wowzers, you have one loooonnng finger there girl! All the better to wear bling with I say!! Looks fantastic. Love your new photos too. Thanks for the eye-candy

Your diamond is huge and gorgeous and the rings all look terrific together. Congratulations!
 
diamondseeker, Mary Alaina & marcyc-thank you, thank you, thank you! I am still in awe of it myself!

Angeline-I am so glad you like it!

My mom stopped by tonight and made me put all 3 bands on together in person and she couldn't believe how wide it was, either...I think she was a little miffed that I ousted her by about 2 mm in width and about an extra carat and a quarter on the center stone! Now if she'd have given me the ring that was meant to come to me in the first place, this never would've been an issue!!! (But I'm SO glad I have mine now! YAY!!!)

Thanks again for the compliments, everyone!
 
Congrats and happy birthday! Your ring is gorgeous, and you have pretty hands too!
 
Thanks, diamondfan!

Oh my goodness, what a BEAUTY!!!!!!! Outdated my a*%. It''s a GORGEOUS set! I just love it!
 
Thank you, Jenn! I love it, too...now if I could only get used to carrying something this big around all the time!!!

Oh heck, what am I saying??? I'm sure I can figure it out somehow...just give me a little time!

Harleigh,

Your ring is just beautiful. I really love the the two bands with it. They look beautiful on your hand.

Linda
 
Thank you, Linda...secretly, I''ve always coveted your Padparadscha in your avatar! I think it''s just gorgeous! I can''t wait to see it set w/your new band!
 
Thank you Harleigh,

To be honest, I am debating with myself. Wondering if I should just wear it by itself.!!!!!!!!! The band may have too much bling and I don''t'' want anything to take away from my Pad.

Linda
 
That is beautiful
