    Actually, I want to know what size you went with and post photos if you want it. We chose 7.5mm

    I'll bite... I didn't go with Moissanite though.  I truly thought about it, but the double refractive index ultimately ended up bothering me.  It was too crazy shiney for me.  I did still go with a diamond simulant from Sitaragem. 3.25mm is the width of mine--it's a knife edge band.  Princess cut 1 ct center stone.  My FI was like totally dumbfounded about my non-diamond choice since he actually proposed with a diamond ring...but we bought Blood Diamond a few weeks ago & he watched it and he said "I don't understand why people would want an actual diamond after that, it's not worth it."  And that was just a movie!

    Sorry the pics are blurry!  It's my camera phone :)

    @Miss Tattoo: would love to see your ring. I plan on ordering from moissaniteco as soon as I decided which ring I want (toss up against 2) and I seen in a previous thread that the halo you were hoping for was one of the 2 I am trying to decide between and I am also wanting to order 7.5mm.

    I picked 7.5mm. Part of me still kind of wants to go to 8mm, but I think 7.5mm looks great on my finger :)

    Here are photos and videos!

    @deathbydesign: I'm so excited to see what your ring will look like when it comes.  You and Miss Tattoo sold me on Moissy.  Someday I'll have my own to share :-)

    Shannon1126~ Your e-ring is amazing!  That is the ring I am hoping to upgrade to next spring for our 10 year anniversary!!  Moissaniteco??  I am so excited!!  This is the first time I have seen an actual photo of it!  :)  I have a 6.5 moissy now but was thinking of upgrading to a 7.5 mm centerstone.  Do you mind me asking what size center stone you went with (to compare with my stone)?  Did you go with an enhanced stone?  They didn't have enhanced stones back when we bought ours but I have been ever so happy with it!  Do you have any more photos?

    I just got this Moissy ring from ebay!! well Riggs and Walton have a "store" on ebay and i got it on sale, but i LOVE IT! i was wondering if my wedding band matches my ring?? any comments? I have been looking for a wedding band for a very long time and there is just nothing that i like that looks good next to my ring. the concept i was looking for is a " 3 cord strand" or a braided ring but they are all really big, this ones are 2mm each ring, and i could not get a regular round band because the ering is knife edged. thanks

    @napabridekelsey: Thanks, well the only thing is that the wedding band is sterling silver but i did some research and they can rhodium plate silver as well and it will be the same as "white" gold

    I am curious about moissanite for my wedding band. I haven't seen a great difference in price though.

    At shane co I can get a diamond band for $250 -$350. I asked about the color and clarity and it was really good.

    At James Allen I can get a diamond band for $435- $500

    Are the prices really good for moissanite jewelry?

    OK I checked some prices again. I see the a big difference. A .75 with a great setting and a band can be bought for $1,000. I like that! I suppose choosing between a moissanite and a diamond would depend on size preference. I wanted a smaller diamond of .35-.5 so I got a great deal from my site. If I wanted a bigger one then the moissanite would have been my 1st choice. However, I wasn't educated in such things during my purchase time 7 months ago! I am glad to know about these options for the future if I choose to purchase other jewelry. Its so beautiful!
