Regardless, I'm excited I've found this site to help me out!

  6. question.... will that give me enough time to ship it to her?...i just want to make sure, if she lives in the USA i dont know if i can get him there in less than a week..is it workable?? if so im in lol

I plan to do this before my wedding, and they only cost about $45 compared to the $200-300 it can cost for your dentist to do!



     



     


  9. yeah it was 1000.00 for both my rings, and 500.00 for my FI I got a great deal on them they were originally 2000.00 but i know that peoples has their xmas deals on right now..so i would def go. AND PS there prices after xmas are higher for whatever reason lol

    and yeah white gold should be less...my rings are canadian diamonds too which is more exspensive (but so worth it) lol

So it was actually $1000 for both, or did you mean $1000 per ring? My budget is about $1800 so if I can can too for that price that would be great! Oh and I'm looking for white gold not platinum, so that will save me some.

     



     



     

  10. lol i just looked inside the ring and it has stamped in it PLAT and something else i cant see lol

Check stamp inside of your ring. For platinum it will say plat, or 900 or 950 plat, any combination of those. If you have stamp saying 14K or 18K, it is gold...



     



     


  11. thank you for your help!!!! THAT IS A SMALL WORLD LOL i just moved back to ontario, but FI is still there for work, hes been there a year...i was there almost a year. crazy lol i will let you know how it works out... hope they carry these here

If you order through the store, shipping is free and they deliver them right to your door! Oh...and I just got them last week.

    Avens,

    Love your cups! I think I would have done the same if I hadn't bought mine already. I need your advice. Mine are aluminum (insulated) coffee cups from Canadian Tire in my colors, red and turquoise. I tried to stick a round label with our logo on a cup but it wouldn't go on the cup straight. So I was thinking of leaving them plain, but now I am having second thoughts. My girlfriend said that this way people are more likely to use it again. Thoughts? I was going to put their name on each cup using a labeller. Your thoughts are appreciated:)

     

     

     

     

     


  13. so i too have a platnum e-ring...what i did was went to peoples and got 2 wedding bands one for top, and one for bottom...both of mine cost 1000.00 (with canadian diamonds in it) them we got the FI wedding band with was custom for 500.00 i will post pics of them for you....but i would def stay with the same metal, as i know my e-ring has changed color already, just remember you can always get whats called (rottium platted) which gives your ring that new look again. i am doing this before the wedding to my e-ring its amazing how it comes out looking new again.

    Allie2012: I've tried contacting SellOffVacations, Escapes and RedTag and the price per person they quote me with a group rate is the same as online without a group rate. What on earth!! I mean I know we aren't the biggest group (20-30ppl) but still... I'm getting pretty frustrated. BangHead.gif Any suggestions for travel agents (Toronto or area) or comments as to what I'm doing wrong would be greatly appreciated.
