I posted awhile back about my engagement ring and the wedding band that I had found to match after a lengthy and stressful search. I literally went to like 5 stores, numerous times, to find the "perfect match". I had a hard time matching the setting because my engagement ring has a thin band and most of the thin bands I looked at were not super exciting (ie sparkly and fantastic). I originally thought I'd do a thin band of diamonds on each side of my engagements ring, but when I tried it on I felt like it took away from the solitaire. I finally settled on a band and while I originally wanted more diamond, I though it fit perfectly with my ring. This is what my engagement ring looked like with that band (which I purchased):
Fast forward about six months (to yesterday) when I was shopping at the mall with J. We popped into Ben Bridge to have my engagement ring cleaned and that's when I happened to spot this lovely thing:
I literally died a little and was like "I NEED TO TRY THIS ON!" I felt bad because I didn't want J to think I was trying to "upgrade" my ring, I just needed to see what it would look like on. And then this happened:
It was literally stunning. I told the lady at the store my sob story about how we had purchased a ring that I liked but that I NEEDED this ring. The store policy is no exchanges after 90 days (which we had far surpassed) so after a few phone calls were made, everything was approved and this baby was going to be mine :) We ran home to get wedding band #1 and made the exchange. I freaking love Ben Bridge. And I lovvvve my rings!! I'm glad I only have to wait 3 more months to wear them together!
