I've found I LOVE the show and tell posts on here (looking at you, yesterday's post about FH's )! They give me warm fuzzy's and I love learning about you ladies! So I'm asking everyone to post pictures about their Engagement rings! Does it have a story? do you plan on a wedding band? What will...

I've found I LOVE the show and tell posts on here (looking at you, yesterday's post about FH's Smiley smile )! They give me warm fuzzy's and I love learning about you ladies! So I'm asking everyone to post pictures about their Engagement rings! Does it have a story? do you plan on a wedding band? What will the band look like?

My E-ring is a family ring given to FH as a surprise after he told his mom he was planning to propose. Its vintage, but that's about all i know about it. FH was super nervous to give it to me, and even offered to sell it to buy something I liked better because I had pointed out very different rings to him in the past. I would have never picked this ring for myself (I would have thought it was too chunky/big) but somehow, when I put it on my finger, it was the ring of my dreams! I am absolutely in LOVE with it and how no one has anything like mine Smiley smile eventually planning (when its time for an upgrade) to have the 4 main stones made into jewelry pieces for future daughters

    I love me some ring porn! Happy Hump day ladies!

    Back story: I've been wanting it since HS and when FI and I started getting serious enough to talk about weddings and such I mentioned it to him and he surprised me with it 4 years later! Couldn't believe he actually knew what I was talking about, remembered, and found it. He is so sweet Smiley smile They gave him the wrong ring too (size bigger) so he only paid like $1500 for a $3500 ring woot woot

    My precious! Not really a good back story. But my friend did tell me she made my DH go ring shopping with her (for me) while I was on a business trip. She even text me and asked me my size. I didn't even give it one thought, so the proposal was a total surprise.

    My diamond has been in FH's family for a long time. He took the diamond and designed the rest of the ring. Its a stunner! I absolutely love it and means the world that his grandfather has enough faith and trust in us as a couple to give me his late wife's diamond. Thinking about that will move me to tears.

    My E-ring

    What it will look like with the matching wedding band.

    No story behind it

    Here is a blurry not-so-great picture of my engagement ring.

    It does have a story!

    When my FH's parents were engaged this was their ring. My FH's dad had it custom made for her. FH's mom didn't really want the ring anymore (FH's parents are long divorced) so she offered the ring to FH to use as an engagement ring for me. FH and I decided we are going to make this ring an heirloom and hopefully give it to one of our kids someday.

    OOOhh all the pretties! Love hearing the stories.

    We are doing claddagh rings for their symbolism, of course I needed something with some sparkle so I have a heart shaped pinkish morganite and am getting a Claddagh wrap Smiley smile Of course the wrap picture shows upside down, but it will be a heart center with the crown and hands surrounding it.

    Here's mine...no story but FH picked it out all by himself! My son calls my E-ring "Boulder"...hahahaha!

    My FH loves the color blue, so I'm searching for a wedding band that alternates diamonds and sapphires.
