I thought to myself; self, where can you find a bunch of girls on Yahoo Answers?? But not just any bunch of girls, mature girls that will give me honest opinion about this. and VIOLA! I ended up here.

Ok ladies here is the deal… I'm about to propose. I would ask her friends for opinions but I for some reason feel like they will spoil my surprise.

Anyway, I need your opinion, I just bought her this ring:

http://www.kodakgallery.com/ViewSlideshow.action?&collidparam=17020330914.79986740914.1231512892821

It is a 14K bridal set with round cut center diamond set in prong and pave set on double shank. (The jeweler told me that). It is a 1Ct weight however, with the rest of the Diamonds it totals 2.65. The gold band will be replaced by the 14k white gold, that is the only difference.

My girlfriend is not into diamonds as much because she is against the whole "Blood Diamond" deal, but I'm purchasing a no conflict Diamond. I have however covered all my bases… if she insists in getting a lab created diamond I'm able to return the stone to the jeweler at no cost no questions asks! Don't ask me how I got them to do that… I guess I'm smooth! LOL!

SOOOO What do you all think? HELPPPPPPP!!!

Let me know if you can't see this Kodak thing and if you can suggest anyother website so you guys can see them.
kristinaleann2005,

Thank you for your answer!
I was concerned about this myself, but my sister thinks she wont mind the small little ones… and if she does, the jeweler said we can order moissanite or still get the lab created ones.

I'm nervous to give it to her… I'm not nervous about my plan just wondering if she's going to like it.
? ,

I purchased this ring from a not so famous jeweler here in Dallas, Texas… they work with Canadian Diamonds who are supposed to be conflict free diamonds. I don’t have his card on me (I have to hide all that stuff, my girlfriend is pretty sneaky) but I will try and post his information later on.

THANK YOU MY LADIES FOR ALL YOUR ANSWERS, it really does help me a lot. I was feeling a bit scared about this whole thing! HAHA!
PGILNIKT,
I'm sorry but, my heart is taken! HAHA! I have a brother….

Take a look at these websites, I'm trying to achieve the same effect. I shot some rings over the weekend but I could not figure out how to stand them up at this angle without revealing what I was propping it up with.

Please let me know what you think.
Thank you!

my boyfriend and I just got my engagement ring and today we went to a couple jewelers to ask about cleaning, they told us we should have it rhodium plated which I know makes it look brand new and amazing but my band is a pave setting like this: http://www.pricescope.com/idealbb/files/519%20Dvatche%20half%20pave%20solitaire%20band.gif
or

and we're a little worried about it ruining the setting or diamonds in it so I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with this?

Thank you

Whats so complicated about love anyways?

She wants a Pony
She wants a diamond Ring
She wants a seat on the city council
She wants more money
She wants more things
She wants checks that wont bounce till

Nothing matters anymore

He wants a boat
He wants a promotion
He wants peers to Supervise
He wants expensive coats
He wants wheels in motion
He wants fire in her eyes

Does anything matter anymore?

Would it hurt to smile at a tired crack head?
Would it harm anyone to choose love instead?
Why must man always judge and delight
in rationalization, blame vampires bite…

Can anyone change the world anymore?
Or is she just a consumer capitalist whore?

Is there anything left to save?
The road to destruction each man doth pave
And yet where there is one, there may be two
Perhaps just me
Perhaps just you

Mercy is born of compassion and favor
The human condition we all must savor
This moment….short and sweet
Eventually our savior we all must meet

If it were a marathon in which we all hold hands
Beside us each seed planted firmly stands
Would you count a few, or none at all
Would you slump forward, or stand tall?

Lets say you don’t think God is there…
Would you to Buddha have something to share?

Love is a bridge where we all can meet
A fruit by which we all could eat

What is so complicated about Love anyways?

We could use a little more now-a-days…

if soo can you please help me find two small diamond wedding bands i would like them to go on both sides of my this ring or just one pave band\

I just recently got engaged, but I want to get a head start on planning. I'm trying to find any kind of wedding band that would go beautifully with my engagement ring.

My engagement ring is a 1 ctw. round diamond center, two trillian-cut pink sapphires, and two rows of four pave-set diamonds on each side (16 total). Here's a link to a picture.

Any suggestions, comments, pictures, links, anything would be very much appreciated!!!

Do they even exist? lol

I've been looking for "accented ring settings" (eg. pave accented)

….and I found a lot …. of diamond accented ring settings (which I can't afford)

But if there are so many diamond accented ring settings, it would make sense that they would also sell cz accented ring settings… but they don't seem to exist? heh

I've seen millions of cz pave rings, but I dont want the finished product, because I have citrine that I want to use as the main stone…. I just want a "setting, with cz pave on it".

hi, I know this is a long shot, but my boyfriend and I went to look at rings, and I found one I like at JB Robinson. it is a very tiny band with pave diamonds halfway down the band. but the cool thing about it is when you tip the ring and look at the sides of the band, there is a really cool see through curly-q type of design. The ring is not exactly what I want, but I love that design, and they wouldn't let me take a picture of it in the store b/c my boyfriend wants to get the ring made… does anybody have this ring or can find it online? I've looked everywhere and can't find it

Im shopping for an engagement ring and I want to know the difference between a cubic zirconia and a genuine diamond. And I would appreciate any tips from people about buying an engagement ring. I was also wondering what is the difference between buying ur diamond from a walmart compare to sea? And also, what is a micro paved diamond? (I know these are a lot of questions, but i really need the help) Since we’re kinda young and need the money for furniture our budget is only a couple hundred $$. So do you think it would be best to go with 10K ring where the diamond is fake and get a splurge on the ring later when we have the money, because my friends are talking abt me making an investment, but i mean we NEED the money and you cant eat a diamond so.. im going to compromise. But i do want my ring to look nice.. give me suggestions and tips.

Please be serious …Im getting married in march.
