I posted my engagement and wedding rings on Reddit almost 3 years ago and some people came after me with pitchforks and called my rings tacky. I'm elated to have found my tribe. ❤️

I bought myself a 15.07 ct fancy vivid pink SI2 marquise diamond to celebrate a year of strength and growth after losing my parents. I was worried about the clarity, but I fell in love when I saw the videos. The ring will live on my middle finger on my right hand, but I put all my rings next to each other for the photo. Inside is an engraving saying "I love you" and it's dedicated to myself as I learn about self-love and why it's so important. You'll also see my watch in this photo. Those tiny diamonds on a pink mother of pearl bezel were the very first diamonds I've bought myself. I've leveled up, and I'm quite proud.

Both pink rings are hard to photograph and are much pinker in real life. This is evident in my other posts, but it's hard to capture in the jewelry store.

Here are the links to the other posts, where you'll also see my husband's custom pink diamond ring and more photos of Chou Chou and Heavy Hatchling:

If you don't want to visit the other links, here are the specs for the jewelry lovers (from left to right):

1. Chou Chou (aka pink rock candy): 5.96 ct fancy vivid pink VS1 pear, two 0.5 ct fancy vivid pink VS1 round brilliants, about 1.04 ct of pink melee on the halo, hidden halo, and on the side profile, and two .01 ct rubies. 18k rose gold band.

2. Ken: She's just Ken! Anywhere else she'd be a ten! 🎶🎵 But here she's a 15.07 ct fancy vivid pink marquise SI2 on a 14k rose gold band. The bezel faces up white because of how pink the diamond is. I wanted to try out the bezel but it's... not enough for me. I'll be keeping the bezel but I'm planning on adding two small white diamonds on the side so it's a trilogy bezel with a tulip basket, as well as a thicker tapered band. Design suggestions are welcome!

3. Heavy Hatchling (aka big chonker): 9.24 ct I VS2 pear (our destination wedding was on 09/24), two 1 ct E and F VVS2 baguette side stones, two 0.25 ct round brilliants. 18k yellow gold band.

This subreddit is like r/bald but for big rock lovers. I'm glad we have this safe space. ❤️

Took me 2 months of searching, and I finally found her. 🥹
