Mine is a 2.5 carat princess cut center stone with 10, quarter carate diamonds around the band....I think TW is around 4.8 carats.....

Wow, a lot of you ladies have some gorgeous rings!!!

I was curious myself =) Great thread!

After thinking about it, I guess 1ct would be ideal in a guy's mind..not too big, definitely not too small (for most women) and still generally affordable. =)

My e-ring is .91, which I still think looks large on my finger...I have small hands so my thought was to change out the band before the wedding to include some accent diamonds and only have one ring.

Starfish,
I'm totally with ya on the mortgage payment thing!
My ring is 1 carat aquamarine, with side diamonds that I'm not sure how much they weigh.
It cost approx a week's paycheck. We are splurging big time on our honeymoon to St. Croix b/c I love to travel!

I don't even have a diamond. I have a blue sapphire, and I don't know or care how big it is.


It's perfect for me and I love it. I said I didn't even need a ring but he said he had to get me one so I acquiesced to a sapphire.

I just realized my math sucks! 2.5 carat center stone + ten 1/4 carat stones on band = 5 carats. Whoops!

my ring was my fiance's grandmothers, he had it referbished the center diamond is a round 1ct and on each of the four sides is an 1/8ct and the set lower there is a half ct on the lft and rt of the center diamond. its a beautiful antique. the wedding band is ridiculous. its a whole nother ct its 4 1/4ct diamonds. sigh. :)

btw way ladies, all of your rings sund beautiful and special :) congrats
