Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux Engagement Ring can be affordable. http://www.diamondideals.com/aniston_theroux_engagement_ring_affordable/ http://www.diamondideals.com/aniston_theroux_engagement_ring_affordable/#respond Wed, 15 Aug 2012 14:02:54 +0000 http://blog.diamondideals.com/?p=828 Congratulations to Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux on their engagement!  Justin reportedly gave Jennifer a whopping 8 carat emerald cut set between tapered baguettes.  I admire him for not trying to reinvent the wheel and giving her one of the most classic engagement ring styles of all times.  It might be big but it is such a beautiful design that it is the perfect symbol of enduring love.  You don’t have to take out a mortgage or a home equity loan to afford this same style.  We can create the same ring with slightly more down to earth proportions.  Here is such an engagement ring with a 2.5 carat center stone and o.4 ctTW baguettes on the side, set in platinum. This was a customized version of our classic style which you can find at by clicking here.

The couple, who have a seven month old child, held the ceremony in Atlanta.  “I just remember thinking, this is the day I’ve waited my whole life for,” Zolciak told Life & Style. “I really do feel like I’m dreaming.”

Her lace gown cost $58,000 and was covered in beading, embroidery, and hand-carved crystal roses.  She paired it with a custom made veil.

Kim’s engagement ring is giant, weighing in at 10 carats.  It’s enough to make any woman jealous.

Should Kim Kardashian Give Her Ring Back? http://www.diamondideals.com/should-kim-kardashian-give-her-ring-back/ http://www.diamondideals.com/should-kim-kardashian-give-her-ring-back/#respond Mon, 07 Nov 2011 17:25:08 +0000 http://blog.diamondideals.com/?p=676 Kim Kardashian is getting divorced just 72 days after her “Fairytale Wedding.” She made millions off the deal, along with a $2 million diamond ring she received from now-ex-husband Kris Humphries. Should she, and other brides who divorce quickly return the rings?

This is tough and there is no clear cut ettiquette for quicky divorces. Normally, when a wedding is called off last minute, it’s appropriate to give back the ring. According to etiquette expert Harriette Cole, traditional protocol is to return the ring if the union has lasted less than a year, especially if it is a family heirloom. Anna Post, author of Emily Post’s Wedding Parties agrees, saying:

“The ring should always be returned. It’s a token of the marriage to come, and when that marriage doesn’t happen, that token becomes inappropriate. Why would you want a reminder of a failed relationship? It’s not like this is a consolation prize in monetary value.”

In Kim’s case, her pre-nup included a clause that requires her to buy the ring back from Kris for its original price if the two divorce, reports MSNBC. For Kim, that’s chump change and clear cut. However, Kim’s mother, Kris Jenner, thinks the ring should not be returned. “A gift is a gift,” she said last Thursday on Fox and Friends.

What do you think? Should Kim return the ring?

Happy Halloween! The Today Show Does The Royal Wedding http://www.diamondideals.com/happy-halloween-the-today-show-does-the-royal-wedding/ http://www.diamondideals.com/happy-halloween-the-today-show-does-the-royal-wedding/#respond Mon, 31 Oct 2011 16:42:28 +0000 http://blog.diamondideals.com/?p=664 The Today show crew always has great costumes and this year was no different. Take a look at the pics as the Plaza was turned into the Royal Wedding.

Matt Lauer and Ann Curry play Will and Kate on their wedding day, and Meredit Viera returned to the show to play the Queen. Al Roker’s costume was perhaps the best; he played Prince Harry. Natalie Morales was dressed as Kate’s sister Pippa, and Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb played Beatrice and Eugenie, royal daughters of Prince Andrew and Fergie.

Each wig worn by the TODAY gang took up to 40 hours to make, using a half-pound each of hair!

Paul McCartney Starts Planning His Wedding http://www.diamondideals.com/paul-mccartney-starts-planning-his-wedding/ http://www.diamondideals.com/paul-mccartney-starts-planning-his-wedding/#respond Mon, 19 Sep 2011 16:43:50 +0000 http://blog.diamondideals.com/?p=612 Sir Paul McCartney has started planning his third wedding!  The Beatle and fiancee Nancy Shevell have posted a notice of intention to marry at London’s Marylebone Town Hall. While beautiful, it’s a strange choice!

Paul married his first wife, Linda, in 1969 at the same venue!  Would you be comfortable getting married in the same spot your partner was previously hitched?

Paul obviously likes the venue, which includes a yellow room, a blue room, and reception rooms. Ringo Starr and Oasis singer Liam Gallagher were also married there.
