Can I just say, I am currently choosing an engagement ring for my girlfriend and it isn't much easier! Lol :P
Every time I think I have seen the perfect one, I go in store and it's completely different or just not what I was looking for.
Have actually found THE ONE this time haha - just saving for it now

I had the same problem....
Try looking at looking at wishbone rings which have a slight dip in the middle which may go round your stone....
Personally i would also go for a plainer band if you have a high set stone such as that....0 -
I'm still trying to pick my engagement ring-and we've been engaged since February! I was looking at crossover rings but then you have to have a funny shaped wedding ring that looks silly by itself. Now we're going up to London on Thursday to a)go to Tiffanys and look at my dream rings and b)head off to Hatton garden (the London Diamond quarter) to see if we can get it made in rose gold and for cheaper!!
I don't know about anyone else, but I just feel the pressure of picking a piece of jewellery that I will wear every day for the rest of my life is so huge!
Why was I so superstitious before I became engaged and never looked at engagement rings "in case it never happens"?!!
Love the engagement ring (and potential wedding ring) BTW

That's pretty ... but your engagement rings has baguette-cut diamonds so you might find that matching those in your wedding ring complements the engagement ring.
Something like this maybe?
It's also from the diamond store here.

I feel for you, we're having major problems choosing our wedding rings.
I won't be wearing the engagement ring on the same finger so thats not a problem.
My H2B wants matching styles, but I can't have any stones in my ring (work in heathcare) but still want it to look feminine. I want either a white metal or I really like black zirconium, my OH loves this one with our wedding date engraved on it
but they are made in sizes too wide for me!
Your engagement ring is stunning!:kisses2: Got married September 2011:smileyhea

My hubbies is from there and he loves it.... me well I had to be different (awkward) and got my ring from here....
http://gilletts.com.au/
You can design your own ring here... my hubbie designed me a beautiful purple titanium ring, as I am obssessed with purple and really wanted a titanium ring, and not many places stock girls titanium rings.
However, you will get stung for import duty on arrival to the UKI love the idea of having your wedding date engraved on the ring! I've never seen that before! I'm going to suggest it to my H2B now-Thank you! x0 -
My lovely man has a ring from gillets too.
We bought it for his Christmas present 6 years ago, before titanium was around in this country. It's well made and looks as good now as it did then.
I think we did have to pay extra when it arrived about £30 I think, but that was 6 years ago, so it could have gone up!First date 10.2.2002
Engaged 18.8.2010
Wedding 9.4.2012
Baby #1 due 26.2.2014 :j0 -
Well, we're both bloomin' awkward! H2B wants a ring made from stone (we found this website last night - prior to that we didn't even know whether what he wants actually existed
), and I have an unusual shaped engagement ring so need to get a wedding ring made specially to fit next to it.


Marrying my lovely man on 1st September 2012
