Topic: Wedding Rings Posted: 02 May 2006 at 1:34pm |
Hey girls
Since we have a wedding post i thought how about a wedding ring post where we post up pics of engagement rings and wedding rings, i got creative with my rings and i would love to see what everyone else has i love rings!! hehe Be cool to post prices up so people getting married or engaged can see what they can get for their money.
Heres mine from Michael Hill Jeweller:
Engagement Ring - $1700 - White Gold with 8 Channel set diamonds and a bigger diamond (i have no idea what size lol)
Wedding Ring - $800 - White Gold with 9 Channel Set diamonds
Sorry if a bit blurry im not the absolute genius with the camera lol

awwwwwwwwww they are gorgeous!!
My engagement ring is gold with a ruby in the middle (birth stone) with a diamond either side. ($695)
Wedding ring that goes with it is gold, clusters of those little diamonds and fits perfectly with the ring ($2995) However I think I might go with something simple like a gold band or white gold band.

Ok here are ours ! Can't remember the exact details, but my engagement ring was about $1600, wedding ring was only $75 (on sale), and I *think* hubby's ring was about $250 (was both an engagement and wedding ring for him).

oooh I like this thread, especially since I work for Michael Hill.
Here is my ring, RRP $2295, sometimes comes on special for about $1895? (bottom left hand corner) it is a half carat total diamond weight princess cut solitaire with princess cut shoulders. The centre stone is semi bezel (or rub over) in white gold, the rest is in yellow, all 18ct. The wedding band I have chosen is a quarter carat p/cut channel set jobbie that fits perfectly with it, and the .50 ct or 1 carat for the ET band...

Jax, looks like your ring on the top left, and Carmel, the Yellow gold version of yours is there too, as is the cluster version of Jess' ring! God love MH!!
P.S we couldn't have afforded my ring if I didn't get a whopping staff discount!

Your rings look nice, I esp like yours Jess, I'm not a gold fan but white gold is nice.
I'm not married but I can't imagine buying a ring that cost that much.. I've seen cute silver ones (love silver) for much less.. okay call me a cheapskate  I love bargins!

You're right Annie, that's the same one LOL it was a little cheaper when we bought it, hooray for sales  I don't know what I'd do with myself if I worked at Michael Hill, it was bad enough when I worked at Hannahs and got a 50% staff discount on ALL our stock

Mine engagement ring is a 3/4 (.75) carat diamond- Colour e Clarity SI1- it was about $5000.
Wedding band is a 8 diamond channel set that was $699.
Both from MH (I used to work there too! While I was at uni- it was where I got my jewellery fetish  ).

This is my engagement ring. It is platinum with a very dark blue sapphire in the middle and two diamonds on the sides. I can't remember exactly what it cost but think it was around $4500.

dont have a pic of mine but the ladies that worked at MHJ would know wot mine looks like.it was $799 and is a 9ct white gold band with an oval Tanzanite(blueish purpleish colour) n the centre and 2 smaller daimonds (one on either side of Tanz) it s a rubover setting?? and theres 2 small normal gols bands on the very outside of the stones.Did i describe it fairly well Jenn and Jacobsmama lol
my wedding bad will be from camerons jewellers here in palmy and wil be 9ct white gole band with 3 small diamonds which align wiith the 3 stones on my eng ring.the band will cost around $300 and has to be specially made due to the oval Tanz stone.was the cheapest and closest to the type of band i am after.
Naths ring however will be titanium or similar and no fuss on the $300 buk ones at MH so an $80-$100 jobby from warehouse is fine by him lol

I guess I should say the prices too, totally forgot. Mine basically look like yours Jennz, but your wedding band is my eternity one and it only has 7 diamonds. Engagement was around $2,500 but we got a big discount on that. Wedding band was $500 I think and eternity ring was $700.

here are mine
engagement 18 ct white gold emerald and diamond ring $3160
Made by Jewellery design and Manufacture. Rob Designed it for me. It is fab as i never need to take it off. Even when i worked in dental as it never catches
Wedding 18ct white gold hand made curved fitting band encasing 10X 0.02 diamonds $1500 made by Todd Barrell
Todd threw Robs wedding band in as a freebie. I love it very big and chunky. But rob not jewellery guy so it stays in the drawer.

ps i took the pic on my honeymoon. hence the long fingernails. hee hee. Still waiting for my eternity ring. me thinks it will be a long way off as far more important things to spend our money on these days. But when we do get around to it it will be the same as wedding band. Although am thinking now of getting my kids and robs birth stones put in it. Carmel I love your wedding band and the sentiments behind it.
