which one do I choose!

(ring size 7.5 | engagement ring is a 2ct. oval on a 14k cathedral gold setting)

I’m really leaning towards the 4mm gold band because it’ll be slightly cheaper and I won’t have to worry about it twisting, or stones falling out, also if I choose to take my engagement, ring off the ring will be very prominent on its own. (maybe I should even go down to a 3 mm?)

but on the other hand with the colorless diamond and pink diamond 2.5 mm band, I love the extra sparkle and the pink stones, but I’m afraid because of how thin it is the band is going to warp, I’m going to lose stones, or I’m going to have to adjust the ring all the time because there’s only stones on the top.

i’m leaning towards the plain gold band, but I am afraid I’m going to regret not having sparkle!

does this band look too small?

i feel like there should be an extra stone in either size or i should go up in thickness to match my E-ring. (E-Ring is from Scott Bonomo, band is from US Jewlery Factory) i wear a size 7.5 and the wedding band is a 2.6mm band with 1.6mm under finger.

cost of wedding ceremony

Hi all!

my fiance and i are planning our Nuptial Mass wedding ceremony for next summer.

our parish told us the ceremony fee is $750 not including the music. this does covers pre cana. I’m assuming our music will be around $500 but do we need to “tip” the priest too and the alter servers?? i didn’t expect it to all be so expensive!!!

Scott Bonomo Ring

genuinely can’t recommend him enough (not spons) i found him through this sub so im paying it back with a photo!! this is a 2ct equivalent moissy, cathedral set with 14k gold. the stone is beautiful and the perfect size on my 7.5 ring size.
it was around $765 when my fiancé bought it several months ago.

i was going to shop thru one of the wholesale vendors on this sub like Provence Gems but was nervous about tariffs or returns if there were any issues. (i didn’t want my partner to take the financial gamble) i might explore wedding bands from them though!!

i would buy my wedding band from him but he doesn’t have the most amazing selection and i’m not in love with any of the styles.

he has so many engagements rings that are so beautiful tho!! - we also shopped thru his website, not his etsy.

took about two or three weeks to arrive.

moissanite engagement ring and a diamond wedding band?

hi all! I’ve been looking at wedding bands, and I’m not sure if I should match my engagement ring (which is moissanite) or have lab diamonds. i’m not sure how the two will look together or if they will look noticeably different at all.

does anyone mix a match? How different did the stones look next to each other?

my ring here is a 2ct moissy from Scott Bonomo

self tanner & tempdrop?

I just started using my Tempdrop over a digital thermometer and I love it! As the weather is getting warmer, I want to start myself tan routine, but I’m concerned about the tan transferring to the arm band or the arm band, causing a splotchy tan!

does anybody have experience with this? Should I use a one hour express tan and just do it earlier in the day so everything is dry by night time?
