My girlfriend has told me that she does not like rings with the stone raised off of the band. Are there engagement rings with inset stones, or would a wedding band style ring with diamonds be suitable for an engagement ring?
Head out to a few reputable jewelers and see what they have...ask questions...lots of questions. I'm sure they will be willing to design whatever you like. Top Wedding Questions Forum Moderator - "Write your sorrows in the sand, your blessings in stone".
