My hairdresser has a friend who she highly recommended we have do a custom order for us.  We met with this fellow...he said "ok, we'll probably have it done in 6 weeks".  I said, "Sooooo, do I get to try it as a wax mold or anything like that?"  He said, "No, it'll be great!"

 

I'm not gonna lie...I hadn't even seen what this ring looked like on my finger, and I was in a state of panic when we went to pick our rings up this week...praying it would be ok.  Well, I couldn't be happier with our rings...here they are!!!  One more thing crossed off the list!

Congratulations!

I love your ring, it looks similar to mine! My guy picked the ring himself as well. I wouldn't have thought that I'd be too confident about my boyfriend choosing the ring himself, but they tend to do pretty well

And what a nice engagement story!
Happy planning

I thought he did a wonderful job, and I can't wait to marry my prince charming. Here is a picture of my beautiful ring that he picked out all by himself! I can't quit looking at it.

MJKH I love your ring, it turned out so well, just like your inspiration ring! I totally know what you mean about working in health care and not wanting a big ring. My FI bought me a beautiful brilliant cut solitaire in a cathedral setting, but I can't wear it to work! So I have only wore it about 10 times since we got engaged in May, and this really upsets him I'm planning on getting an eternity band and wearing that to work, but honestly that thought of the bacteria from a hospital that we can carry on our rings freaks me out!

Thanks...I know, I think when we're in Mexico I will likely look for a nice silver band that will serve not only as a momento...but may also be even more functional for day to day wear.

My attempt at being artsy...here it is on...just before it went to spend the next two months in a bank vault! ; )
