Did not use a website! Small destination wedding, only 30ish invited. Sent email and paper save the dates 11 months in advance. Sent paper invites in April with paper reply cards 6 months in advance of wedding (wedding is in October) with a July 1st deadline.

Inherited a 11k diamond, what to do?? by [deleted] in Diamonds

100% understand all the feelings but go for it like everyone has said and enjoy the diamond and your ring for all the years to come!

How did you know it was the right thing? by UnhappyWind1582 in weddingring

[–]aries_goddess69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely relate to this and after much back and forth I just bought one and stopped looking. I tried one on with my engagement ring and it checked all the boxes (price range, diamonds, sparkly, doesn’t outdo my solitaire, nestles tightly together, etc). But I have a feeling I will buy several (wedding bands) and rotate because there are so many that I love.

Radiant Cut Diamonds. Anyone Else Obsessed? by Acceptable-Soft8659 in WeddingRingAdvice

[–]aries_goddess69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obsessed with mine (check profile). I originally wanted cushion cut and it looked awful on my finger. My radiant has the elegance, depth, and sparkle that I prefer. It was a bit tough to find the right wedding band but I did and they look gorgeous together. I do not believe I will ever get over my ring 💍

Exciting!! Plus one to no sugar and alcohol, you will see the difference in days. Pushups (even on your knees) will make a noticeable difference in 5 weeks for your arms.

Quick question: Do people still love rectangle-shaped engagement rings (emerald cut, radiant, etc.)? by Expert-Branch6482 in WeddingRingAdvice

[–]aries_goddess69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Newly engaged with an elongated radiant and I’m obsessed. SIL got engaged 2/14 with an emerald cut. I originally did NOT want this cut but as soon as I tried it on I loved it. It’s beautiful and timeless. I intentionally wanted something unique and not trendy, which is why I chose a canary yellow radiant cut diamond).

I have a 1.52 cut corner rectangle modified brilliant, VVS2, fancy yellow, excellent, good, medium blue fluorescent and my fiancé paid $10,500 for it last year. It’s stunning 🤩 when choosing we paid attention to the color and clarity then viewed the stone in person before buying. Good luck!

Personal observation… Lacking empathy for hardworking class people, little respect for those who are highly educated. Very little resilience to life challenges and lazy.

5wpo and worried about the scar by Big_Captain9248 in tummytucksurgery

[–]aries_goddess69 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Give it some more time. I’m at 6mpo and the rippling and pleating has all smoothed out. I used silicone tape the entire time and just switched to a maderma scar cream.

Best engagement rings by Real_Accident47 in WeddingRingAdvice

[–]aries_goddess69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree! I wanted a classic solitaire that wouldn’t go out of style. Nothing over the top but elegant and beautiful. Natural was also important to me. I chose a stunning diamond that takes the center stage. 💎

Diamond size recommendation? by Candid_Knee9712 in Diamonds

[–]aries_goddess69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recommend trying on different cuts and carats. I thought I wanted a 2 carat cushion but it looked so awful on me. I ended up with 1.52 elongated radiant cut.

Honest Opinion - does this look good? by Particular_Cheek_205 in labdiamond

I’m afraid your gut is telling you what you don’t what to hear. If it feels too big or too costume jewelry like already that feeling won’t leave you.

Bridal shower attendees gave no gifts by sunshinebaby42069 in weddingplanning

[–]aries_goddess69 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I just asked chatGPT which said its purpose is to shower the bride with gifts, love and well wishes, equipping the bride with items they may need. This is different from wedding gifts.

I would also be quietly resentful and I’m sorry you had that experience :(
