My solitaire ring is 0.76 carats.
My wedding band is 0.25 carats (just got it today! yay!)
Total, 1 carat. Which, considering my tiny hands, is the perfect amount for me.

I have more than one stone. My total ring set is a little over 3.5 carats with my center stone at .89 carats.

My e-ring is .75 carats. With the wedding band it will end up being 1 carat total weight. I am very happy with the size of it. If I were to have a bigger diamond it would look funny on me because I have such little hands.

If you don't want to share, then don't. I think it would be very interesting to see what the average size of diamond is here at Onewed. Usually, women are interested in things like that about other brides. That's what so great about being on a forum like this; you can, if you choose to, share different aspects of your weddings with each other. But you can choose not to share too. Your choice. :)

I always worry about hitting my diamond on stuff and bending the ring or something. I am always looking at it when I hit my hand on something. I even worry about putting my hand in my pocket.

I like the poll too, I love to show off my ring and am proud as hell of it! JMO...:wink:
The Solitiare (e-ring) is 1/3 of a carat, round, brilliant cut. The guard/band has 6 diamonds total (3 round on each side) and together I have 1 carat.

All I have is a picture from the internet and its hard to tell. Each ring has 9 diamonds on it so it really doesnt look that big... the wedding band and e-ring together are a little over 3.5 so I think my e-ring is about 1.75. But here is the picture so you can see what I'm talking about.

You cant tell really but each of the larger side stones are about 1/4 - 1/3 carat. I'll post pics of the actual ring when I get to jonathan's house and can put on the wedding band.

I honestly don't remember. I know that my center stone is somewhere between .5 and .7 and there are 26 other small round diamonds in my e ring and about 10 in my wedding band, so I realy don't know!!!

It's really pretty!. I put a wedding band from Tiffanys next to mine. It made a beautiful set.

My ring is actually small but it's a Canadian diamond and of the best quality for cut and color. So my ring is worth about $3500 but Matt got it on sale for $1700. My e-ring is .33 of a ct. My wedding band has 4 diamonds in it and I would say it equals to about a half carrat. For our first anniversary Matt gave me diamond earrings that are just over a carrat when put together. He always tells me that if I hadn't told him I didn't want something big he would have gone bigger. Now looking back on it, why did I open my mouth! lol. Jk. I love my engagement ring and know that there is more jewellry to come in the future! ;)
