Hello all!
I got a some info on the celestial wedding band.. here is the link
https://www.etsy.com/listing/960277657/star-engraved-ring-celestial-gold-ring?click_key=bfe72e56cae960a3d28e9b364dfadd1e32e633db:960277657&click_sum=18083c85&ref=shop_home_active_20&sca=1&sts=1
Also looked up the specs of the Tiffany ring..
I actually had the Tiffany gem report at my home.
It was bought from a brick and mortar ebay seller not too far from us so she got to see it in person before she bought it.
Round Brilliant
1.83 carats
7.77 - 7.82 x 4.88mm
Triple X
G color, VS2
No fluorescence
The Tiffany embrace smallest size band also came from a reseller on Ebay.
Congrats and a lovely sentiment.
What beautiful pictures! Congratulations to your daughter and her new husband! I love her dress, rings, and wedding jewelry! The pearl bracelet is beautiful!
It struck me reading your posts that we had several things in common. Our older daughter was my mother's first granddaughter, and she was born on my mother's birthday! My mother had a major stroke one month before her wedding. My sister made arrangements to rent a wheelchair van so my mother could come, but the day before the wedding, my mother realized it would just be too much for her to try to come. It was so sad, so I know exactly how you and your daughter must have felt. It was very sweet that you wore your mother's ring that day!
My younger daughter got the same Tiffany wedding diamond band because I found a pre-loved one in her size from a PSer! And....she also had a second engraved rose gold wedding band! I have very rarely ever seen that, so I think our girls have great taste!
Gorgeous!! Does she wear them all stacked together? I just love that she chose a YG band, she has impeccable style!
Wonderful, wonderful photos @Rubies-R-Me ! Both you and your daughter look like princesses!The jewelry is amazing and the most impressive piece of them all is your EC! What a ring So huge congratulations on your daughter's wedding and on all the impresive bling in the family!
I also wanted to ask you how does your daughter wear her rings. Does she wear her diamond wedding set on her left hand and her yellow gold band on her right? Does she stack them all together? Do tell!
Natylad!! Thank you so much for your incredibly sweet compliments about our dresses and our jewelry. I have such a big smile on my face from your post.
Most of the time she wears the ER with the diamond band. If work takes her to a "sketchy" area she will just wear her plain yellow gold band.
She has borrowed my heart diamond ring and matching band too as she like to see different things on her fingers. I'm happy to oblige as jewelry shared is the best jewelry there is for me.
We have 3 daughters so there is lots to go around and lots of fingers, necks, wrists and ears to bedazzle.
You're a sweetheart for your post.Your girls are so lucky to have a beautiful and generous mom with lots of bling!!!
Hello diamondseeker2006.
Thank you so much for the congratulations and compliments.. I will pass them along to the bride and groom!
Love that you found a pre-loved Tiffany Embrace band for your daughter too.
And that she bought a rose gold one as an alternate as well. It's always great to have choices. Part of the reason that my daughter got a second band (besides that fact that she is a jewelry hound like me ) is that in the Jewish religion you are supposed to get married in a plain band without any stones.
I googled a better description..
"An authentic Jewish wedding ring is a simple, solid band made of gold or silver. While embellishments, like etchings and inscriptions, are acceptable, the ring itself should have no other breaks or interruptions. Our ancestors believed that smooth rings portended an untroubled and everlasting marriage."
And YES Diamondseeker2006.. we do have so much in common!
I was so sad to read what was happening with your mom just a month before the wedding. What a terrible shock that must have been for all of you. It brought tears to my eyes that you and your sister made every effort to have your mom at the wedding but in the end it just was too much for her. A true selfless act on her part to realize that. You and your sister will always be comforted that you showed your sweet mom that you were willing to move mountains to try and have her be there with the family that day.
I'm sure your daughter's wedding day was bittersweet.. mostly sweet though.
We (I have a sister too!) had a long time to mourn that my mom wasn't going to be able to attend my daughters wedding. She had dementia for the previous 2 years before the wedding that became exponentially worse a few months before the wedding and we knew that she was going pass away either right before or right after the wedding. She did pass away 2 days after and even though I was so very sad it was sort of a relief as she was truly suffering and now she was at peace. In the genuine circle of life our Rabbi that performed the wedding for our daughter performed the graveside ceremony for my mom just a few days later.
Well don't mean to bring this thread down.. I will feel forever blessed to have had a mother as wonderful, wise, kind, generous, selfless and fun as she was so my story is a happy one!
I do recall hearing that before about the wedding band in a Jewish wedding, and that was an excellent decision on her part to get the additional diamond band!
I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your mother. My dad had Alzheimer's so we went down a similar path with him. I do agree with you about the relief of them passing in regard to both of my parents. I am thankful for your family that your mother's passing was after the wedding, at least. I agree that we have to focus on the blessing of happier times with wonderful, loving mothers!
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. I love that you wore your Mom's ring, that brought tears to my eyes.
