in Not Engaged Yet
Tonight BF and I had decidedly our last talk about what type of engagement ring I want and now he is going to pick one out by himself. I sent him pictures of what I like and he told me what he likes so I'm really excited to find out what he picks out!

I guess this isn't anything too big but I don't want to talk about it with anyone IRL because BF and I get enough questions about when we are getting engaged so I wanted to share with you girls!

    Very exciting, now the hard part comes. Attempting to be patient until he gives you the ring.

    [QUOTE]Beth I LOVE that! That is so unique without being like...weird. It has a vintagey feel and is delicate and lovely. I want you to have that ring!  In your talk did you speak about timelines?
    Posted by LivLeighton[/QUOTE]

    You pretty much described everything I love about it :)

    Right now our timeline is to get married sometime summer 2013 and we want a year to plan so we are planning to get engaged sometime this summer. But that means an proposal could be coming any time between June - August, maybe even September. But in my head I'm just thinking it's going to happen any time during 2012 so I don't set myself up for disappointment.

    [QUOTE]Well, I'd say that it's good you at least have a timeline! At least "sometime in 2012" isn't "sometime in 2013!"

    Haha...yes, that's the mindset I'm trying to have!

    Yay!!  And such a pretty ring!!  Sounds like it's almost time to join the waiting-for-the-proposal-while-the-ring-is-in-the-house group.  Patience pants are issued with membership (or at least they should be!).

    I'm forcing myself not to look at the dream ring anymore because I have no idea if BF will buy that one. I know I'll love whatever he picks though :)

    According to the etsy seller it is a Morganite.

    That ring is freakin' gorgeous!  Is it rose gold?

    It has the same scalloped band that my wedding band has. 

    Defiantly don't look at the ring anymore.  It's tough to be patient, I know, but try your hardest!

    I adore that ring! I hope you get it! Etsy is awesome. I love how the sellers there don't mass-produce stuff, and I think the idea of the ring being crafted just for you is so romantic. Good luck!

    That ring is gorgeous, but I agree with PPs to try not to look at it anymore. And who knew rose gold was liked by so many.
