Well, I got engaged in December. My fiance proposed with a Blue and White RING POP. (He is a Sigma/Me-Zeta). We were away on vacation and the mood was right---he knew he wanted to propose soon, but hadn't bought the ring yet. On Valentines Day he presented me with my REAL engagement ring. It is a 1 carat brilliant cut diamond with a diamond and sapphire on the left side and then on the right. A total of five stones. Five for my founders. 3 diamonds----3 for his founders. We met at Blue and White Weekend in Gainesville, FL. I love my ring! It looks gigantic on my finger because I have very small hands with thin fingers.

AWH... He put a lot of though into that ring, good for him!

My fiance and I have been engaged since 2-14-03. It was a surprise, well rather an ambush proposal. I was shocked as hell. Anyway, my initial engagement ring was "cute". My mom laughed! But I have since upgraded. He did much better the second time around. But ultimately if it was only about the size of the ring we wouldn't be were we are today... about take that long walk on June 30th!!! :D

This is my favorite! I visit it sometimes.

I like the schaumberg (sp?) ring.... I visit it online from time to time....

But this is nice too! I think it may be a nice look on me b/c I have a small hand and thin fingers...

my ring that I have now from my previous engagement was a simple 3 stone yellow gold ring. small stones, but they look kinda normal on my small hand.

I tried this on in a store in San Fran. It looks a lot different on the hand, unfortunately. The center stone doesn't have much...fire? brilliance? It was my number one until then. But it really is beautiful in print.

ETA: Congrats Gina1201!

I never try it own. I'm superstitious. Next time I'm in there, I might. I like cushion and bezel set stones. I like rings with an antique look.

Best wishes to the newly engaged/soon to be hitched GC'rs!

Here is my engagement ring and my band is white gold,pave diamonds all the way around, antique style.

I am not familiar with this superstition, what does it mean when you try rings on the actual finger? Are you doomed?:eek:

I used to wear a ring on my left ring finger and someone told me that if you did that you would never get married.

This is a beautiful ring!

The beauty of this ring is that my hubby did it by himself..."custom"
