It is ugly, too expensive, and that a plain band will look just as gorgeous....

there!

I'm not allowed any more diamonds....lololol 7is enuff!

Eurgh....yuck that is awful!!!!

Was that ok??? ?

Hideous! Wouldn't be seen dead in it! Just awful!!

(I'm not even convincing myself!!!)

Sorry I can't help you here either! I have a gorgeous engagment ring and was dead set on a plain band....but fell in love with one with a bit of sparkle! Remember, you are going to be wearing it for the rest of your life so you need to love it....

Oh dear esme, couldnt you have been a wee bit horrible???? lolololol

Blue- i mailed you the link to the cottage.

Thanks guys. i am not convinced, think i will need to try harder. mayber aversion therapy - everytime i think of a diamond ring, slap my face?!??!

ta nona - will have a nose!!!

Did the mail go through??

No ☹️ did you try PM or email?

I didnt think so, ive sent the link to several on here and no ones claimed to have seen it! I went to contact on the page and where it says Send bluewater an email I clicked on that. It would be in your junk folder of your actual email??

Boo it's not there.

Ok you have an email coming your way.....

Yay! got it. it is mucho gorgeous.

The most disgusting ring I've ever seen!!! I feel your pain Bluewater, I would've loved a band with some sparkle but OH was adamant taht we should have matching rings - something about the rings having some significance or other ?? - as its the only wedding related thing he's had an opinion about I had to let him have his way. Just means I have to save the sparkle for when I get an eternity ring!

I have the exact same problem dammit. I think aversion therapy is the answer, you need to get an elastic band and put it round your wrist and every time you think of sparkly WRings you should snap it!

You know that feeling you got when you found The Dress? all excited and not wanting to take it off? well i didn't get that feeling with the dress. but i got it with the ring. ?

i think what i need to do is go to hatton garden and see where i can get the best deal.

debbydoo, i thought matching rings might be nice too - i can see where your h2b is coming from, but h2b is adamant he wants yellow gold, and my e-ring is platinum so that's not going to happen...

I can see where he's coming from too and really I think its quite sweet of him, he's a big softie! Luckily though he was happy to go with white gold bands to match my ring. Do you think he would change his mind if you took him to try some on?

If it is over budget now - why not go for a plain band and then have something like that for your eternity ring - so you have sparkle, plain, sparkle
