    We're changing the setting to my e-ring. Help me decide please! Also, let me know what you think of any of them.

    Hm, i voted for number 1! I love halos! I would pick number 1 for myself just because number 2 looks large, and i like dainty rings, personally. Also, I'm not really a fan of split shanks. All three are beautiful, but number 1 would be my pick :)

    I like number 1, but is there a space between the stone and the halo around it?

    another note: I also will not be getting a wedding band because of the extra expense of the new setting.

    I like #2 because it's bolder than the other. I like the pink going around the middle--it's delicate and feminine without necessarily being a dainty ring. But dainty isn't my personal style. I also like #1, but feel like it's a very common style (again not my thing, i like very unique things) and i like #3 but feels like it lacks a little pow is all. Also about #2, is it kinda looks like it has wedding bands already. So you won't get a lot of "Congrats on your engagement!" when you're already married.

    I personally don't like dainty rings myself. I like my rings to make a statement.

    I vote #3, but I'm biased bc mine is very similar.

    I personally love number 1, but I have traditional taste. I personally don't like color in an engagement ring and I tried on a couple rings with the split shank and didn't care for how they looked in person.

    It was really a toss up between the first and the second one, but I think the first one is more classic than the others, and it just absolutely gorgeous! That would be my pick. :)

    The only thing that's holding me back from getting ring 2 is that I'm afraid that the pink diamonds will be too pink. I won't be able to see them in person due to relocation so it's a gamble.

    I picked number 3, I don't like the round stone in a square halo

    I doubt those pink diamonds will be REALLY pink. That would make them astronomically expensive. I've seen pink diamonds in person (small ones!) and unless they're insanely priced, they're a very soft, very light pink. Very delicate and feminine. I wish i had a photo for you. But with fancy pinks, the darker=more expensive. And i've seen simon G rings in the store before and they're not intense at all, very soft...if that's who makes that ring, you'll be fine =]

    if you don't like dainty, i don't think #1 is a good fit! i'ts dainty imo! i have a very statement-y, bold, chunky ring though. It's on my profile somewhere

    Thanks everyone! Really it was a toss up between ring one and two but when the votes came in I realized I was disappointed ring 1 was so popular so ring 2 it is!!

    I would usually say #1 but since you are not having a wedding band I think #2 is perfect.  It looks as if it is more than one band and is unique/beautiful.

    I voted #3. I think it is the most delicate of the three, which I really like. Also, I think that because you aren't getting a wedding band a split shank would be really nice because its a little different and seems like more of a stand-alone ring.

    I voted number two because it looks like a wedding band is embedded, especially if you're not getting an additional one!

    I like 1 and 3 both but voted for 3 because it will be easier to pair with a band.  I know you said you didn't want a band but you may change your mind when your 5-year or 10-year anniversary rolls around.  :)

    My ring is somewhat similar to number 3, so that's what i voted for.  pic is below. they are all beautiful settings, but i think #3 works best if you aren't getting a wedding band.  i'm actually moving mine to my right hand after the wedding, bc i can't find anything to match.

    I have a solitaire, but I really like split shanks!  I voted for #3.  #2 is unqiue, but looks a bit masculine or something to me. #1 is nice too, but a bit more common than #3.

    I like #1!  I like that it is more traditional - but that is my personal taste.

    PLEASE NOTE THAT I HAVE NOW CHOSEN THE SECOND RING. THANKS FOR ALL YOUR OPINIONS BUT NOW THAT I'VE ALREADY PURCHASED IT, HEARING THAT THE 2ND RING IS TOO THIS OR THAT ISN'T ALL THAT FUN.

    I LOVE ring #2, great choice.  :)  I have a colored diamond in my e-ring too!  Believe me, it's so fun telling people it's actually a diamond...most people don't know they come in other colors.  Haha
