Ringa Ding Ding!!

It occurred to me that mayhaps I had skipped a few things along the line. Afterall, what about the ring? I suppose I should explain how Mr. M proposed..and the ring he chose.
Mr. M and I had been discussing marriage for some time. It wasn’t a surprise that he would propose. Actually, it was more like… “Oh.. you know I think its best we get married.”
Response: “Yeeah… I think we’re at that point.”
And, there you go! Mr. and Mrs. Manolo decide that they should take the next step in their relationship. I had already given him the ideas on what stone I liked. My favorite stones were cushion, radiant, and asscher. I liked them all for different reasons. I loved cushion because it was classic and elegant… radiant because of its divine sparkle..and asscher because of its royal history. I didn’t tell Mr. M exactly what setting I wanted or what size stone I would fancy. But, whatever stone he did chose had to be the best quality. He agreed.
See, I’m a sneaky little fellar. Mr. M can’t do anything without me knowing. And I mean anything. I practically have him on surveillance.*chuckles* All he would have to do is say “dinner” and I’d scream “PROPOSAL!!“
But, to my surprise it was one sunny May afternoon that I came home from work to find a giant heart made of red and ivory rose petals. Candles lit up the room.. and there with his guitar Mr. M was sitting.
After all the I love you’s..and reasons why he wanted to marry me.. Mr. M pulled out the ring.
In the end, he chose a wonderful radiant stone (tres carats may I add)…and I couldn’t be happier. I love it. All of his studying Colors and Clarities and Cuts paid off. The setting design is classic and unique. The stone is more than I could dream for. It floats magically inside four prongs covered in micro-pave diamonds.

Even though the stone is heavy, the entire ring surprisingly is not. The band is made with palladium metal which although has the strength of platinum is actually lighter in weight. I never knew there was such a metal.
There you have it…Mr. and Mrs. M get hitched!
What’s your favorite stone?
