She knew the rings were in a black bag with a blue drawstring. She and Waste Management workers found it in just 30 minutes.

She says she’s “extremely grateful and so very impressed” by Waste Management.

Wedding rings: Can they survive a long marriage?

During my wedding, I promised to stick with my husband “until death do us part.”

The marriage is great, but after 25 years, my wedding ring is disintegrating. The trouble started a couple of years ago when I signed up for a power fitness class. Pressing the hard steel of a dumbbell against soft gold of a wedding ring is not a good idea, I have learned. The gold thinned and finally cracked.

My ring trouble planted a seed in my brain: Maybe I should get a new ring? Guilt quickly followed the thought. But the seed sprouted.

The Black Hills gold band with the lonely diamond I picked out as a 20-something isn’t what I would pick out today.

As it turns out, I am far from alone in my longing for a new ring with a bit more sparkle. Many women trade in and/or trade up, said Susan Spencer Adrien, a third-generation owner of Spencer’s Jewelry in Shorewood.

Jessica Biel And Justin Timberlake Went Shopping For Wedding Bands
News from Daily Gossip:

The wedding day is getting closer and Jessica Biel and her fiancé, Justin Timberlake went shopping for wedding bands in New York. The famous Hollywood couple has chosen to visit designer Eli Halili’s shop, but instead of purchasing bands they enriched their jewelry case with several new acquisitions, People Magazine reports.

Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake have set their wedding date in August, so they have already started to take care of preparations. The two were recently spotted while trying out various models in the New York shop of designer Eli Halili. In addition to wedding rings, the couple had fun testing ancient rings and precious stone necklaces. Had it been a regular customer doing that, the vendors of the famous designer shop would have felt offended, but these rules don’t seem to apply to celebrities.

Jessica and Justin decided that the models suggested by Halili were not in accordance with their wishes, so they did not purchase their bands on Saturday’s shopping session. They nevertheless, dropped $ 6,500 on a ring and two necklaces which might explain the shopkeepers’ boundless patience. The ring was…………… continues on Daily Gossip

Tips On How to Get Her the Perfect Engagement Ring
News from AllAfrica.com:

Honey, I hate my engagement ring! … Those are words you would never want to hear from your fiancée that you’ve newly engaged.

A friend of mine got engaged last Friday and all we could tell her was “wow congratulations girl!” with happy yet quizzical expressions on our faces. Ask any woman… that was a rather lackluster congratulations from us and I explain that that was because her ring – to put it mildly – is way less than gorgeous. Who am I kidding? That ring is super HIDEOUS! And the worst part is that she knows it too but can’t say anything! An engagement ring is always a big deal! The next big deal after the wedding of course.

I mean you have been waiting for that proposal since forever and it is always a long long hopeful wait and when it comes it had better be worth it! It is normal that when a woman is engaged she will scream in delight, jump up and down, hug and kiss her new fiancé, jump and scream again, admire her ring, say a thousand “OMG’s”, admire her ring again and again then call her friends and half blushing, half ecstatic show off her ring and of course expecting the ohhhs and ahhhs and a million “OMG’s”.

In my friend’s case.. she was just smiling and saying thanks and almost hiding her hands behind her back and fidgeting with her fingers just wishing she could run and hide the ring somewhere dark.

$ 10000 Engagement Ring Stolen From Arena District Parking Garage
News from 10TV:

A woman was mourning the loss of her $ 10,000 engagement ring Thursday.

Brooke Parker said that she and her husband, Michael, parked their car in an Arena District parking garage for a kickball game Wednesday and returned to find $ 10,000 worth of jewelry missing, 10TV’s Justin Moss reported.

The couple removed their rings – Brooke’s combined wedding ring and diamond engagement ring and Michael’s wedding band — for their weekly kickball game Wednesday night and stashed them in their car’s console.

“We went back to our car and went to get our rings from the center console where we had hidden them, and they were gone,” Parker said.

The Parkers said that they had a number of other valuable items in the car, including power tools and golf clubs, but only the rings were stolen.

“It’s just stuff when you think about it,” Brooke Parker said. “We have our health, but someone took something that was very meaningful to us.”

Columbus police said that they were investigating the burglary, Moss reported.

Buying An Engagement Ring: How Do I Pick The Right Ring? (VIDEO)
News from Huffington Post:

It’s almost wedding season, and even the stone-coldest among us get sappy when close friends and family members pledge to love each other forever. That’s why, if you’re attending at least one wedding this summer and you’re in a relationship, you might want to start thinking about buying an engagement ring — because all that love-pledging might send you down on bended knee before you know it.

In this clip from local news channel Fox 6, long-time jewelers Rob and Steve Tobin of Tobin Jewelers share some expert advice on buying a diamond ring. The jewelers say that antique-inspired rings and white gold are hot this season, as many brides-to-be shopping with their fiances are requesting these styles.

On a budget? Rob Tobin told Fox 6 that there’s an easy way to get the ring you want for less: ‘We’ll make the ring smaller, with less diamond weight. You’ll save a bit of money that way.”

Many of the vintage and antique engagement rings, wedding rings and jewelry items currently in stock at Topazery.com are now being offered at special prices.

Why do engagement rings still matter?
News from Globe and Mail:

From Saturday’s Globe and Mail

The centre of the ring is the size of a giant Chiclet, but less chewable because it is an emerald-cut diamond. More diamonds, long and thin, circle the finger, forming a tiny fence. The engagement ring that Brad Pitt co-designed for Angelina Jolie is earthily handsome, and may have cost anywhere from $ 250,000 to $ 1-million, according to reports.

Dover man charged with robbing women of wedding rings in crime spree
News from The Star-Ledger – NJ.com:

The ShopRite at Roxbury Mall.

DOVER — A 27-year-old Dover man is being held at the Morris County jail on $ 650,000 bail after he allegedly went on a weeklong crime spree in which he robbed or tried to rob wedding rings from women at three shopping areas in the county.

Christian Rivera started the string of incidents on April 18, when he pointed what appeared to be a handgun at a woman at a shopping area in Rockaway Township and demanded her wedding ring, according to police.

Then, on Tuesday, he threatened a woman in a parking lot in Wharton with an imitation firearm and demanded her rings, police said. The woman began screaming, a bystander stepped in and he fled, according to a police complaint.

On Wednesday, Rivera again used what appeared to a handgun in Roxbury and removed the ring from a woman’s finger in the parking lot near the ShopRite in the Roxbury Mall, police said. He was arrested on Wednesday after that incident, according to authorities.

All it took was one glimpse to make actor Angelina Jolie’s engagement ring — given to her by actor Brad Pitt — a rage worldwide. The ring is estimated to be worth $ 250,000 (Rs 1.3 crore approx), and apparently it took Pitt a year to perfect the design along with jeweller Robert Procop.

The

simple yet intricate design of the ring has an emerald cut diamond in the center with baguette diamonds cut in steps, set within the band. It is crafted with the finest quality diamonds cut into an exact custom size and shape to suit Jolie’s hand. The ring was first spotted on the 36-year-old actor’s wedding finger at the Chinese Art collection at the LA County Museum, earlier this month, where she was pictured with Pitt, 48, and their son Pax, eight.While the ring’s replicas are selling like hot cakes internationally, closer home, the demand for the 16-carat emerald cut diamond ring has also increased.
