@Mrs. Dunekirchen: Your new ring is very beautiful!! It looks gorgeous on your hand. 🙂
My first ring was a place holder CZ emerald cut on a silver band until we picked out my ring later. But otherwise this was my bridal set which I gave to a friend who recently got married. She took this picture but doesn’t mind me showing you guys.
It tarnished really bad (turned black.) & I thought that was the end of it. But after I got my forever rings I cleaned the old ones for the heck of it & all of the black came off of them so I sent them to my friend & she loves them. 🙂 I am really glad they didn’t go to waste.
My old bridal set (on her hand):

Mine is not an upgrade, but a change from a too-delicate ring for everyday wear to a sturdier diamond ring that won’t scratch and get loose. They have the same finger coverage.
Initial smoky quartz cushion stone in skinny setting:
Diamond ring, flower double halo. The center stone is held by 10 prongs!

@Scintillante: I always admire your ring (diamond halo cluster)! Do you mind sharing where it was purchased?

@FutureMrs.Wood: Thank you! It’s from Zales/Peoples, for a decent price. I changed the shank to a platinum one as an upgrade. I don’t like how white gold turns yellow pretty fast, so platinum is amazing. I also had a custom wedding band made, which I just received 2 days ago! I’ll post pics 😉

@Mrs. Dunekirchen: Here is my before n after pic. Same center stone. In love!!!
So my Fiance originally proposed with this gorgeous opal ring, but a couple of months ago the stone fell out and we couldn’t find it. I had been wanting to upgrade anyway, so I figured this was the universe sending us a sign. I just got my beautiful ring yesterday and figured I’d share it. The first two are of my new ring, and the second two are of my original ring (without the opal). Ironically everytime I tried to get a pic of my first ring before the stone fell out either it would be blurry or my camera would die right as i was taking a good one.
