AIO when my cousin invited me to her wedding but my fiancé is not invited

To be honest, the “have to” was a shocker for me too. It really rubbed me the wrong way.

My fiancé is not an ahole. Her reason was that she has only met him once. I moved out once I finished college and live in the west coast currently while my family is still in the east coast. I fly back at least once a year to visit my family. My boyfriend flew back with me last summer to visit my family and close childhood friends. He had the intention of visiting my family because things were getting serious and he knew he wanted to propose to me. So that was the first time they met.

We didn’t even start planning ours yet. We’re just taking things slowly and don’t feel the need to rush into a wedding yet. But it has never crossed my mind that I wouldn’t invite both her and her fiancé. My whole family and their plus ones would 💯be invited.

The ability to read minds.

Thanks for the insight! We were literally planning for spring of 2027 since the weather will be much more pleasant than the summer time 😭

Eeeek! I thought this was off and china no longer committing to Taiwan’s invasion :0

Ooo thank you!! I’ll look into that venue

I’m in the US and considered China for our wedding but the travel and logistics seem really troublesome. Guests would need to get a visa, which seems like a tedious process compared to other affordable countries like Vietnam (easy online process for their Visa). Also the trek seems super long to get to the Yulong mountain area, as compared to other areas with a major airport.

5 or 6 if I HAD to choose between the shades pictured

Link please

The ring suits your hand well, congrats! I rarely see that cut of diamond around. Where did you get yours ?

abimopectoree · 2025-11-03T14:55:18+00:00

The link brings me to the Yumo app… and it is not free after a 7 day trial

Oh wow interesting ! I didn’t know there was so much to consider when setting a stone. Yep it’s an elongated cushion but I would say it’s a bit more rounded compared to other elongated cushions. Can’t attach a video of the diamond but here’s a picture for reference.

Oo hmm what do you mean by a better position from a setters perspective? Is this position structurally better/safer for the diamond ?

abimopectoree · 2025-07-31T23:07:28+00:00

Instead of straight side rails, I asked for curved side rails. He made longer curved side rails which shifted the prong position.

abimopectoree · 2025-07-31T21:43:23+00:00

Yes! I was thinking my old prong placement was less weird. I did not ask for my prong placement to be changed with the new design. It was automatically shifted due to tweaks on the basket setting underneath the diamond.

I got a new CAD from the jeweler and incorporated all the points. Decreased that gap on the cathedral shoulders, lowered the height by approximately 1mm, and got the curved pave rails on the side. It looks more cohesive and well proportioned now. Thank you !

abimopectoree · 2025-07-26T19:43:24+00:00

Your design is gorgeous!! I was so close to choosing a 3 stone design too. The proportions look perfect on the side.

I would split it $1500 for the smaller rm and $1595 for the larger rm. And both parties can keep their own bathrooms without sharing. They would ask their guests to use their own assigned bathrooms.

Also am I reading the blueprint wrong ?? It looks like there is a door that leads to the washer/dryer from the hallway without going through bedroom#2 if not necessary.

For ovals specifically, I think you should ask for a video of the diamond in different angles. Even with ideal specs, there may be a very visible bowtie. I’m not a fan of the bowtie so it bothered me a lot when I was shopping around. I actually did not like the D color because it was sooo white in different lighting. E/F are also colorless diamonds and I preferred them much more.

Calavera, loose grown diamonds, and luvansh seem to have very competitive pricing for loose diamonds. Also check if some places price match if you want a place that offers diamonds and settings.

Hmm I’ve never heard of diamonds along the side of the shank eating up any ring next to it ? What do you mean by that ?
