    We can't afford it outright and don't want to put it on credit so we put it on layaway today. I am SOOOO excited! I had my heart set on another ring but I saw this one, tried it on and fell in love. The pictures don't do it justice at all. The middle stone is around half a carat and isn't part of the ring because I already have a 1 carat heart diamond that we are putting into the setting instead.

    Let me know what you think! (I won't get it for, like, forever it's going to kill me!!)

    I should add that the sides are blue sapphires - several of them in bagettes not one whole piece like it looks here.

    Absolutely beautiful!

    We put my ring in layaway, too, since we're trying not to put any bit of our wedding on credit. The wait felt like forever, even though it was really only about 4 months.

    It's beautiful!  You were really smart to put it in layaway.  I have a few friends whose fiances bought their rings using credit cards.  There is nothing that kills the romance of the proposal more than knowing that you will spend the next couple of years paying off your own ring  :P

    It's gorgeous! I'm sure you'll get it paid off in NO time at all and it'll be the best thing EVER to have it paid for, no strings attached!

    Thanks!! I am so excited that last night I couldn't sleep LOL

    Money is really super tight here at the moment but we will get it paid off a little at a time and the jeweler isn't worried about how long it takes. He said "you can visit it anytime" heh!
