[quote=Anonymous]I have an old-fashioned emerald-cut diamond ring, with a tapered baguette on each side, just like my grandmother had. I love my engagement ring. I do not like canary diamonds. I also got engaged without a ring; we got the ring later. DH and I agreed that the engagement itself is the agreement to marry, between the two of us. The ring is just a fun piece of jewelry to celebrate that agreement. I would have felt that making jewelry such an intrinsic part of the engagement would cheapen the emotional meaning of the moment. Which is not to say I don't like jewelry - I LOVE jewelry, and welcome it for all occasions. But it's important to distinguish between the event itself, and a gift commemorating the event. I say propose without the ring, then ask if she wants to shop together, or have you choose something as a gift.[/quote]
