How did your guy propose to you?

DisneyBride asked:


I had picked out my own ring and knew I was getting it, but didn’t know when, although I had a feeling it was going to be 22nd birthday present. We went to Six Flags, where we had our first date, and stood in front of the fountain to get our photo taken. He told me some line about his sisters friend who worked there who said they have to take so many photos before they can take a break and felt sorry for them, we never take photos so that was good excuse. When the person was taking the photo, he pulled out the box and gave me my ring. His great line was “Well, here you go!” lol. He’s a great guy but not good with words.
The bad thing was, though, the ring didn’t fit my finger at all and had to be resized before I could even wear it! During the resizing process, a diamond was knocked loose and it took nearly a month to get it repaired properly. Crazy, huh?
At least we have a good story out of it right? At the time I was crushed but I think its funny now.

So, how did it happen?
I enjoyed all of the stories and I have no idea why anyone would give any of them a thumbs down. I’m putting this question up for vote because I feel there is no best answer as all answers are lovely.

engagement ring diamond is loose in its setting?

sunshine in september asked:


the diamond in my engagement ring keeps getting loose. When I first got it it was really loose so I had it tightened. The jeweler said there was always a chance the corner could chip while tightening it so he didn’t tighten it all the way. So now it is loose again. It just slides a little bit when i push it with my finger nail. It is a princess cut (square) with a prong holding it at each corner. Should I be worried that it will fall out? If I take it to get tightened at a different store should I be worried about the corner chipping if they tighten it too much?
I dont have insurance on it and my fiance bought it from a jeweler that is several states away from where I am… eek

Cushion Cut Diamonds?

Kuya asked:


what should i look for when trying to select the perfect cushion cut diamond? should i concentrate more on finding a square cushion as opposed to a rectangular cushion?

if the dimentions of the diamond are not as close to a perfect square, will the cushion diamond loose some of its sparkle?


Custom ring was made badley.what can i do?

Casey asked:


I bought a really beautiful sapphire several years ago nd finally had the money to have it set into a ring. Since it’s slightly off in shape I had a custom setting with a halo of smal diamonds and a plain shank done in white gold.
The first two things that were wrong were that i had asked for it to be prong set and it was bezel set, and the diamonds were set all crooked and not well done at all. I mentioned the problem and she straightened out the diamonds for the most part. I was willing to live with it. But now just two months later the bezel set sapphire is loose. What can I do? The company is called elsarings.com


Old Mine Diamond E.G.L Certified, Looking for a buyer ASAP?

rudolph_barton asked:


Hello,
I have a 2.84 (loose) Old Mine diamond that I would like to sell. The diamond has been graded by E.G.L as 2.84 carats, S-T in color, and Vs2 clarity. I am looking for a buyer for the diamond. I recently lost my job and I am in need of selling it for a fair price. The diamond has been appraised for over $12,000, However, I will sell the diamond for as little as $5,000. I have several pics of the diamond as well as a pic of the certification. If anyone can point me in a good direction in where I can find a buyer, that would be most helpful. I have tried many online places such as jewelry websites that have classifieds as well as ebay. Most people interested are either scammers wanting me to use an (escrow service), or possible jewelers who want me to send the diamond to them so they can look at it. I don’t want to send my diamond anywhere unless it is to a buyer.
Thanks for taking the time to read this

Engagement ring stone help?

David C asked:


First off, I’m a college student but in July me and my girlfriend are celebrating our five year anniversary, and I want to propose on our vacation (she’s never been to the ocean, so we’re going to this really nice beach in maine). I obviously can’t afford a real ring, and don’t have the credit for loans. I’ve looked into it a lot, and wanted to get some opinions on a simulant diamond. It’s from Diamond Nexus Labs (http://www.diamondnexuslabs.com/jewelry/product_info.php?cPath=3_135&products_id=51), and they look good to me, but I don’t know much about gems. I was thinking of buying a loose princess cut diamond there, and getting her a platinum setting. Would you be able to notice that it wasn’t a real diamond?
My budget is within 2000 if I plan to propose in July, and I’ve talked to my girlfriend about it. When I explained to her my financial limit, she said she doesn’t really care if it’s real, just as long as it is “really sparkly” or something. And from what we’ve talked about, I don’t think a colored stone is an option
Thanks to everyone that answered. I’ve decided the best thing to do is show her everything everyone has said, and let her decide herself what she wants to do.
