Bruce and I had decided to spend the rest of our lives together before I ever had a ring, but I could have never been prepared for the beautiful surprise that he had in store for me last December!

I have always loved Tacori and dreamed that I would get to wear one someday. My close friends knew of my fondness of Tacori, and lucky for me, Bruce invited my best friend, Courtenay, along for the ring shopping!

When I was 21, my parents gave me my grandmother's diamond. My grandmother, to whom I was very close, passed away when I was in high school, and unbeknownst to me, she had left her beautiful diamond solitaire to me! I wore it on my right hand for quite some time after her death. It is a gorgeous, round solitaire and I have always had a great sense of pride and love in wearing it. I stopped wearing it when one of the prongs grew thin but I always thought it would be special to wear it on my left hand one day when that special person came along.

Well, he did, and when he ordered my exquisite Platinum and Diamonds II Tacori engagement ring and wedding band, he had my grandmother's diamond mounted as the center stone!

We will be married in 20 days, and I am so blessed and thankful to have a loving, handsome and generous man to share the rest of my life with. I wear my Tacori, with my grandmother's diamond in the center, and hope that it will bring us many years of happiness and love, like my grandparents had long ago!
