  here's to show you.
  
  the ring is only a 0.13 carrots, very simple design I got for my birthday. Only 2 prong (2 more prongs hidden by the bands) but its solataire is kinda sunken level to the heights of the bands so it doesnt scratch or pull on any fabric.
  
  its band shape however is odd shape so it doesnt wear well with other normal rings and has to be worn on its own.

  Anyway I would go to Charlotte to buy my ring if you guys have the budget for it
  
  I lowered the cost of my ring for Mr Pinky Bear by a lot though he did promise me a Charlotte when he can afford one
  
  Coz we were getting married earlier than planned so never get it
  
  I got the trinity one from Goldheart in emerald cut. They call it crisscut I think
  Reason why I chose it coz Criss sounds like his name

  yeah.. like i said, the hardness of the metal makes working it difficult...
  
  i looked at a titanium trinity ring before.. nothing spectacular.. looks like an ordinary trinity ring.. cost: US$1,800
  
  i would have bought it for Mrs Bear

  Not necessarily. Many wedding rings especially Gold ring gets worn out after many years so when they happen, it might be time to replace it. You can renew your wedding vow when you do that.
  
  FYI,
  Diamond ring is an engagement ring. Traditionally (western tradition), the guy should spend 3 months of his wage on the diamond ring. Anyway, I don't think many guys follow that tradition. Most of them just get what they can afford.
  
  When picking for your diamond ring, you don't have to pick the one with big stone. Best to try it on and see how well the size goes with your finger. If you have slim finger, a big rock will stick out like anything. Also, if you buy a diamond ring that is worth over $10k, will you wear it everyday? You'll spend most of your time worry about losing it. So, try to take that into consideration. 0.5 - 1 carat will be the common size.
  
  As for the wedding bands, the man should pick one with less Gold in it (9K) since they do a lot of rough works, the ring with less Gold will be stronger and less likely to get deformed. Female on the other hand, can get one with more Gold (18K or more).
  
  If you have 2 separate rings (engagement and wedding), the wedding band should be worn "closer to the heart" (on the ring finger between your knuckle and diamond ring). If you are considering to have 2 rings, you'll need to make sure your wedding band goes well with your engagement ring.
  
  Hope the information helps!
