So, here's the lowdown:
• If you're married, please post a picture of your dress and your rings! Do you feel that the style of your dress matched the style of your rings? If not, which one matched your style better?
• If you're engaged, post a picture of your ring and the dress you've picked out/you have your eye on. What's your personal style or theme for your wedding?
• If you're waiting, post a picture of a (realistic) dress and a ring you can see yourself wearing! How do your choices reflect your style?
I'll start! I'm waiting, so no ring or dress yet. My personal style is very classic and slightly romantic. I can see myself wearing a strapless lace gown with a slight sweetheart neckline and trumpet shape.
And for the ring, I would love to have a RB with a four-prong platinum setting and pavé diamonds. I secretly like antique/vintage rings, but I feel like it's too much of a gamble because I'm so picky. So, traditional ring it is!
Now it's your turn!
Oh dear. I have no idea how to resize things on here....after all these months.
Anyway. I don't really have a theme for my wedding. My color is red, with black and ivory as well. My wedding will be more of a fancy & delicious dinner party, with a few DIY projects here and there. Being a small wedding, I really am going to be able to spoil my guests.
My own personal style is romantic and girly and I love lace!
My dress:
and my ring:
I'm definitely into classic styles. But I like a subtle little twist. Like my dress is secretly sparkly and my stone is a Moissy.
OOH fun! :) I'm engaged, so I only have a picture of me in the sample:
My e-ring:
I LOVE the vintage look. My dress, I think, has a very classic, vintage look. My e-ring (and my wedding band, pics below) are antiques from the 1920s (e-ring) and 1910s (wedding band).
EDIT: My wedding will have a vintage feel to it. It will be at a vineyard with this beautiful almost barn-like (but not a barn) building. The ceremony is outside, the reception is in this beautiful barrell room :)
Wow, this is serious wedding porn for me. All that beautiful lace and those classic/vintage rings!
@somethingaquamarine: Ooh! What a brilliant thread!! Thank you!
Here is my dress:
And here is my ring:
My set:
A better picture of my e-ring:
And, my dress:
One more, since the train wasn't down in the first picture:
I would say my style is definitely romantic and is definitely NOT blingy or sexy or stylish. DH proposed with a very modern ring (IMO it's modern-very clean lines and tension set stones. I absolutely love it though!) and I paired it with a vintage inspired band to give the whole set a sweeter, romantic look. I think my style shows through both my ring and my dress!
They both reflect my offbeat, quirky style! The theme of my wedding is "Stuff FI and I like"!
Here's my dress:
My rings:
I really have no idea what my personal style even is. I always knew I wanted a big ballgown, and a heart shaped ring. :)
My ring: 
And my dress (NOT ME)
I like to stand out and be different. I love blinged out things and over the top stuff. My wedding will be a a white winter wonderland :}
This is SO fun! Both my ring and dress were custom made so they are definitely ME!
Both definitely have vintage and modern elements I love.
Oo I'll play! :D My ring was custom made designed by my fiance with some help ;) and my dress is Allure couture 229! yes, I love bling! :D we didn't really have a wedding theme. we like classic elegance (and bling!) so we just went with whatever fit our venue and looked pretty to us :)
My ring that I don't have yet
Something similar to this dress, I will probably customize something with Jasmine's Bridal Shop
@somethingaquamarine: ooooh, I feel like you and i have similar tastes!
My ring is thin pave although the ring is cushion. I love how it looks on my hand. I think it looks feminine and pretty!
My dress is also fit and flare lace. Feminine and romantic! I am not a super feminine girl, more of a trendy and edgy style but my style for the big day worked out like this!
It's simple but perfect
My dress is a classic princess dress. Sparkles and all
Thanks for indulging me, Bees! You ladies have some seriously great taste. So many gorgeous rings and gowns!
Fun thread! Love seeing everyone's choices.
I think my style is sort of refined (I hope) whimsy with a retro flair?
My ring. Vintage, 1.15 carat from the 1920's.
My dress but not me in it :) Kind of vintage-y too!
I guess I'm doing a more vintage wedding :) Theme is generally what FI and I like though
My Ring:
and my dress:
I'd say I'm a traditionalist at heart but refuse to settle for things as are. The ring was custom made based on a stock setting and I'm wearing a different belt than the one that comes on it (and nixing a big flower). I also tend to be more classic and timeless in my purchases.
Engaged.
I don't remember which pic of my ring is best, but this is the first one I clicked on...
And I'm still dress shopping...but my sister found this one online last night and I almost fell off the couch...
great thread!
@Ms.GoodEarth: beautiful vintage rings.
@Bebealways: i love how your rings match your dress. i think i know your favourite colour.
@Glasgowbound: that dress is amazing.
@LavenderBride24: I really like your dress. It's simple but has some bling. It looks great on you!
here's mine.
i guess both are a little different than the norm. the only things traditional are the wedding bands.
My ring:
Latest picture of my dress from my second fitting:
I think my style is bold? We don't really have a theme.
My ring is an antique from the 1920s
And my dress is the San Patrick Calais (ignore the straps...they're not part of the dress and I don't think I'm going to wear them.
My theme is woodsy bohemian. We're in banjos, canoeing, camping, outdoors..but some refined (i.e. I've been collecting antique silver and cut glass vases for organic flowers). I think my style is laid back, no bling, some classic elements, but creative and bohemian. If that even makes sense!
This is fun!
My ring:
Mostly classic, timeless, but slightly trendy with the pave diamonds.
My dress:
I only have a picture of me in the sample (way too big). It's pretty trendy with the mermaid shape but with classic lace (with a trendy blingy twist). My wedding with have an antique feel but with lots of shine (tons of mercury glass, flowers, candles).
@jpalm13: Wow, your ring is stunning. (And so is your dress).
My ring:
My dress (from the bridal shop - still not fitted):
I've always known I'm a vintage type of girl. (I wore an authentic 50s prom dress for my high school graduation party). I just originally expected my dress to veer more towards the 50s than the 30s.
@RexManningDay: That is one stunningly beautiful ring and dress! You are going to knock your FH dead when you walk down the aisle!
@RexManningDay: Thank you! I love love love your dress! Its so different and beautiful! What kind of center stone do you have?
@BeachBride2014: Aw, thank you!!
@jpalm13: Thanks! The center stone is a sapphire (just a very watery blue one). I love it because it subtly changes color depending on the light.
