So pretty and unique. I have a traditional ring, I love it but my other side of me would have loved an emerald or ruby ring. I love colorful wedding rings made from different stones than diamonds!

Our solution is to have something made from old jewelry our families contributed to the cause. It sounds unsentimental, but melting down old stuff that never sees the light of day is a way of giving something with a family history new life. It's also a great option if you're interested in going green, or if you want to design something unique.

So many non-traditional styles and completely customizable. My boyfriend (soon to be fiance) and I both chose rings we love at great prices.

Plus my fiance didn't like the ones the seller had listed so we had one custom made!! For no extra charge! Anyway my ring has a white sapphire and it looks like a plain white diamond but without the $$$. I am not really a diamond type girl anyway. The seller is downtothewiredesigns and I cannot recommend him enough. The seller's name is Gary go check out his stuff! I've bought earrings and necklaces from him before because I love his designs. There's a picture of the ring I bought at http://www.etsy.com/listing/62513090/white-sapphire-engagement-ring I bought my rings from etsy- they were 100$ and $125 and love them soo much !
