Some Idea While Buying Pop The Question Ring

Metal is relevant too:
Finally, you will have to choose the metal that the band is made up of. In contrast to earlier times, there are now different types of metals which can be used in engagement rings. The more popular options include tungsten carbide, yellow gold, white gold and platinum.


Herein, you will not only be considering the aesthetic side of the pop the question ring but also the financial side of it. For aesthetics, you will have to evaluate what kind of metal your girlfriend likes along with the relation between the color of the stone and the metal. Financially speaking, some metals are more expensive than others. For example, tungsten is one of the more and more popular  metals in the world. Therefore, your choice of metal will also play a major role in how much you spend.
Colors in terms of  Tungsten:
Almost every man knows that colors matter to women but most do not know that, when it comes to tungsten, the color is going to have an influence on their pockets. The most desirable tungsten carbide ring in the world are, of course, colorless. However, you would find it quite difficult to buy self-colored tungsten rings because they cost mini fortunes. Therefore, you would have to give up on colorless tungsten steel ring and focus more on colored tungsten ring that match your beloved's preferences.

The all important setting:
Diamonds rely heavily on the way they are set. In fact, a poor setting can lead to a high quality diamond looking like a dud while a well chosen setting can make even a cheap diamond look like a charm. The setting you choose should be able to let through light which will help the diamond shine and show itself to the best of its abilities.
If you follow the above mentioned four tips on choosing the perfect engagement ring then there is no reason why your soon to be wife will not be wowed by your wonderful and appropriate choice.

GMA' Brings Skydiving Proposal to Life

How far would you go to propose marriage to the love of your life? Write it across the sky? Shout it from the highest mountaintop? Modern-day Romeos keep upping the ante, coming up with memorable ways to pop the question -- from flash mobs to crossword puzzles, hidden in movie trailers, TV commercials and more.

"Good Morning America" put a call out to adventurous romantics to submit their ideas for an extreme proposal and extreme wedding as part of the "Extreme Love" contest. Hundreds of entries poured in, but one submission stood out.
"It has been four years since we were supposed to skydive, and we still haven't gone," 27-year-old Kyle Monroe of Carbondale wrote to "GMA." "I'm sure that your staff has received several proposals that include skydiving, but this adventure has significance in our relationship. I think that after five years, Liz won't care how I ask her. I'm finally ready to propose."
"Good Morning America" came in and helped bring Monroe's extreme skydiving proposal to life on May 21, 2011.
Monroe told his girlfriend Navitsky that they were finally taking that sky diving trip, but kept the proposal part a secret. "GMA" set it up and came with cameras, which Navitsky was told were filming a promotional video for the skydiving company.

Taking the ultimate leap of faith, Monroe and Navitsky jumped from 15,000 feet above the earth. As Navitsky landed, she saw the question she'd been waiting for: "Marry Me, Liz?"
"I was just ecstatic. I was like, 'Get me down there. I was to get down there,'" she said. "I was so excited."
The extreme surprises weren't over yet for Navitsky. Monroe lead his lucky bride to a gathering with their family and friend.
Now the couple is dreaming up an extreme way to walk down the aisle.
"We're both kind of adrenaline junkies," Navitsky said. "We've chatted about a destination wedding and doing something extreme while we're there, like bungee jumping."

Definitely Love Replacement Lost My Wedding Bands

I lost my ceramic wedding ring while out on New Years Eve. Found a replacement on tungstenringsmall.com for much less than I paid for the original. I unfortunately ordered the wrong size. No problems with the return and replacement order. Would definitely order from ringsmall again, just hope it's not because I lose another tungsten ring!

The only problem I had is the sizes seem to be a off a bit. I'm typically a 9.75 and can sometimes where a 10. I ordered a 9.5. It was way too big, and I had to go down to a 9. Wearing a 9 seems weird, considering I wear 10s, but the new one I got in the mail fits, but is just slightly loose. I imagine an 8.75 would be perfect. This is weird though, since 9.75 is normally my perfect size, and this scale is telling me an 8.75 would be my perfect size. This 9 feels like a nice 10 to me. The ring sizes seem to be off by one whole size, as you can see.
The unusual carbide ring itself is great. I like tungsten carbide rings for their durability and style, and I like the fact that it is virtually scratch proof. I like the brushed design of this one, with the polished edges. I had one that was just the opposite, brushed at the edges and polished in the middle, but the polished surface smudged too easily and I found myself constantly cleaning it. On the brushed surface, however, it is very difficult to see dirt and fingerprints, so it always looks good.

This tungsten wedding ring is exactly what I was expecting. If anything, it's a little larger than my other ceramic mens ring, which is a 10 also, but close enough that it fits fine. It's heavy, like every tungsten steel ring. I got this as a backup to my main wedding ring (white gold) so that I can wear it camping, climbing, or wherever and not worry about scratching it. It definitely does not scratch. I haven't been nice to it already, and it looks brand new still.
