Hello cloe, did u got your wedding band in the same store in etsy? Thank you
I chose Mosessanite because I couldn’t stomach the thought of having a diamond ring the price of a new car. It is beautiful and so shiny, I love it.
I chose a moissanite too because of our restricted budget. It's been a little over two years since we purchased it and it's still flawless and beautiful. I have no regrets of choosing a moissanite instead for a diamond! I absolutely love my engagement ring!
Can I ask where you got it. I am shopping around for inexpensive rings and I have no idea where to start.
@@oneandonly3139 I got my Moissanite wedding set through Kobelli. Very reasonably priced. Mine was $1100 total. The main stone C is Moissanite and the pave stones, wedding band stones and halo stones are all diamond. It’s set in a 14k white gold. I just love it!!
Diamonds actually also decrease in value. I have an $18K stone that when I went to look at selling I could get $6000 for. It’s a real diamond. Jewelry is just highly marked up and the valuations done are really only for insurance purposes. So what insurance will pay if you lose it, and what you can sell it for are VERY different. I keep trying to convince my daughter to go with moissanite for this reason.
I'm sorry you overpaid 12k on your diamond. That does not mean the value went down. You got scammed thats it. Moissanite has a zero dollar resell value
Whoever paid 18k for a diamond ring is not very smart
Agree
Unfortunately that just means you got scammed… sure, diamond resale values can fluctuate a bit but that amount of decrease is pretty much unheard of (I am a hobby jeweler and GIA certified gemologist) I will be wearing a moissanite when I eventually get engaged.
How much do you think should am engagement ring cost
as the years go by, and your love grows, the value of the ring goes up 😌💖
After my 3 Carat Diamond fell out of its setting (heart attack and a half, I found it thank goodness) I went moissanite! I designed my own ring and love it so much! It gives me the bling I love and less worry. Your ring is beautiful!
Oh my!! Where did the diamond ring come from? Lol
@@steph903 I had it custom made 😳
@AshleyMova What company did you go with to design your moissanite.
It’s hard for me to believe it’s been five years since you made your video about your ring. Thank you for making that video. It definitely changed my perspective.
I discovered you almost 2 years ago through your moissanite videos and watching them helped me decide to go with moissanite! I eventually upgraded to a pink diamond though since moissanite doesn't come in a permanent pink color. I still love my moissanite and will wear it as a travel ring 😍
I initially decided to settle for a band when I went ring shopping with my -now husband. But now knowing that I would like a diamond, I will definitely be looking into this ring! I actually found you through your ring when you first posted it! Glad I subbed to your channel and your amazing content ❤
Found you through your Mejuri videos. Love this update video. More people should get moissanite. I love mine so much! I was able to get a 8 carat radiant moissanite and I have no regrets.
I have a moissanite engagement ring. I’ve had it for a year now and i love it! I soak it in dawn dish soap and scrub it lightly with a q-tip. i polish it with a pandora polishing cloth.
I absolutely love my moissanite ring! We decided to go with a 3.5 ct pear shape, lab diamond halo and lab diamonds on the band. The contrast of the moissanite with the diamonds is absolutely stunning! I also filmed a YT video, if anyone is interested in viewing. Happy ring shopping!
Pretty rings. Where'd you get them?
Literally was just looking at your older videos a few days ago as my bf and I started the engagement ring shopping process!! This is exactly what I wanted as there aren’t many videos on how moissanites and it’s perfect timing 💗
Moissanite Engagement rings are much more affordable here in South Africa. 🙂
I’ve had mine for a year now, I get so many compliments and I love it soo much!
Thank you so much for this! I’ve watched a few times now to help solidify my decision to go with a Forever One moissanite; it really is such a pretty stone, and it’s great hearing your experience with it!
All your jewellery is beautiful! I love the pairing of yellow and white gold ✨
Thank you for this video. It just reinforced how I feel. After 5 years and you’re still rocking it. Amazing!!
My son and his girlfriend are getting engaged the end of the month. They both are minimalist and very frugal with their money. I did some research on Moissanites and really like the stone. Especially when I found out where it came from. It’s a stone like any other gem stones. Difference is, it came from the sky, lab diamonds are man made they are real diamonds and earth diamonds came from the earth. I don’t know why some people hating on them. Good quality sometimes doesn’t mean expensive. My son is definitely buying a Moissanite ring.
Congratulations on 5yrs and love your ring it's beautiful
I 've married 2 years ago and I wear a moissanite engagement ring and a moissanite wedding band and it's so great ❤️
I also have one! I hate that some people look down upon them. They’re just as good! Thanks for sharing this
Love this review! I have a 1.24 oval moissanite solitaire set on a thin yellow gold band for 8 months now and it's still as sparkly as ever. saved a ton which we used for bigger expenses. :)
It looks beautiful! No upgrade needed. Perfect stone.
You’ve got a beautiful ring!
I also have a 3 carat Emerald cut Moissanite solitaire in 18k yellow gold band, and I love!!!
I wanna go for a bigger moissanite the next time. 😊🌹
I never owned a diamond ring and even after marriage we couldn't afford one, we only had a band, after a better financial stability I was searching for a nice weeding set but I have expensive taste but then again I didn't wanted to pay so much for the type of ring desired, so I started leaning towards a gemstone because I didn't wanted to get a CZ or white topaz, until I randomly found moissanite a 1 year ago while googling around, found "The One" at a reasonable price. I wear it almost everyday and barely clean it too and still sparkles. I feel proud we went this route.
I love that you mixed the two metals! I’m thinking of getting a gold wedding band as my engagement ring is white gold
Had no idea about Moissanite until I saw your earlier videos. Because of your reviews, we decided to order my engagement ring from the same Etsy shop. Cannot thank you enough for sharing! Best purchase we have ever made 😊
It’s a beautiful ring. I also had a moissanite ring when i got married. It’s a stone test like diamond more sparkle than diamond I wouldn’t change a thing.
I have a 9x7mm emerald cut moissanite engagement ring from True Gem with 1ct lab created diamonds on the band. I have had it over a year and no issues what so ever. I have no regrets with having a moissanite engagement ring.
Such a beautiful moment you have shared 😊❤️
My fiancé also gave me moissanite engagement ring. He know I am not so fond of Jewelries that much plus I always not wore them when I am home since I am always cleaning 😂😂😂
I only wore them when we go out. I love my ring. He proposed to me last 2022 and its 2 years later still looks good ( just need regular cleaning)❤❤
Many moons ago after having my son I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease which affects my skin. Prior to being diagnosed/treated it got to the point that my skin was reacting to gold, palladium and platinum and I could not wear any jewelry anywhere on my body without extreme skin irritation. My husband found The Aladdins Cave on Etsy and he makes jewelry set in Titanium, gold, and platinum. Due to my skin issues we ordered a Moissanite ring in titanium. My rings still look like new and I never ever take the ring off this includes hands in dough, gardening, bathing, sleeping and not a scratch on the bands or stones. I love my Moissanite rings.
The pairing is gorgeous. My hubby just gifted me mossainite earrings
Gorgeous ring and home for a gorgeous lady. So glad you're still happy in your ring and marriage. What a life:)
Really beautiful ring!!
this is sooo sooo helpful thank you so much for making this!!
glad to hear!
Love your ring and your weding bag is unique! Is beautiful! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🌺🌸🌼💕💕💕💕💕
I love your wedding set! I lowkey want to copy it with the same band 🤩 its so cute & i love the contrast!
Omg thank you!!! 🥹🫶🏼
Love this ring! I also love all the jewellery you’re wearing in this video! Do you have links for the earrings, necklace and other rings on your right hand? ❤
I got engaged in 2019 and still to this day, I love it. I also still get comments about how nice it is. My parents and my hubs parents initially were shocked that he didn't go with a diamond as that is what they preferred. I can't wear it right now cause being pregnant actually made the somewhat previously loose ring tight, and I look forward to wearing it again later on.
I discovered you through the moissanite ring video. Then I watched the Thrift Smart and Goodwill vlog. That’s when I found out that you live in Nashville. I live in Nashville too. I am excited to watch more of your videos.
You have such beautiful hands! Thanks for sharing info on your rings
Thanks for the kind words!
Thank you so much for this! There aren’t many videos that show the lasting results of a moissanite ring after 5 years or more. I love diamonds and what they “represent” but at the same time, I love a good deal that doesn’t compromise the quality. And it is increasing in popularity. Can you share what size ring you have as well??
Sounds like you made a wise choice, and it still looks beautiful. After debating between options, I went for a lab diamond, and I love that we can enjoy nice jewelry without breaking the bank.
Discovered all your videos on moissanite ring a couple months ago after finding out about it and they have been really helpful! I am going through with a moissanite as well! Also certain companies now make the crushed iced cut for moissanites!
I want an oval crushed or a cushion cut
@@monicabroussard840 I just got engaged this year, a few months ago and I have an oval crushed solitaire on a gold band! It’s stunning! I absolutely love it! I’ve gotten so many compliments and no one can tell with the naked eye! Although I think it’s much prettier than a Diamond!
For me, I just HAD to have moissanite because it’s so darn sparkly!!! I wanted to have the sparkliest stone I could get but we are most definitely a couple on a budget, so an outrageously expensive diamond is no an option😂 nor do I think that makes any sense when you could just get the moissanite lol
Exactly 💯
I am soon to be engaged & specifically am requesting moissanite--but there are so many people that make them now, I am overwhelmed! Thank you for doing a 5 year review--it's good to know that this shop's work withstands the test of time! Thanks again, it's gorgeous!
Charles and Colvard is where they originated. Do research because all Moissanite is not created equal , just like diamonds.
Charles and Clovard moissanite should come with ab authenticity card if the jeweler you get it from is a certified seller! My engagement ring from this June is moissanite and I love it! Good luck!
The True Gem, absolute impeccable experience and pieces. Wherever you decide pick a store in your area where you can go choose everything in person TRUST ME GO IN PERSON, DO NOT STRICTLY CHOOSE ONLINE!!
@@JMac-27 true! I love mine from True Gem in Dallas!
My husband just bought me a 2 carat cushion cut moissanite and I absolutely love it. I get so many compliments on it. Your ring is very beautiful too.
I have a cushion as well. Love it, looks like a diamond, everyone thinks is. The 2 carat makes it believable
Thank you so much for this video! 💗
That ring is so pretty! Mine is a 2 carat diamond solitaire exactly like that and if I had known about this stone I would've loved if my husband gave me this! I could've bought a damn new car instead of my ring🙈 Plus I get so worried something will happen to it! It's gorgeous!
Had no idea you had a moissanite. A 2ct equivalent oval cut is exactly what I'm wanting too! Loved all the up close shots and seeing it with your unique band.
That ring is freaking gorgeous!!!
Really enjoyed the video 😊
I absolutely love Massionette ring ❤️
Please do an updated what's in my Mejuri jewelry box for 2022!
Coming soon :)
I love my moissanites they are so beautiful.
My ring is a 1.8 ct moissanite set in 14k yellow gold with 1/5 ct diamond pave down the sides. Our wedding is next May and the band matches (diamond pave). I love my ring and can’t imagine ever wanting anything different.
I’m curious where you got your ring from? Sounds beautiful.
@@alfy337i am curious as well
perhaps because moissanite is lab grown the prices are going to go down with technological advances? keeping it an affordable option is really amazing, i'm glad they would do that rather than just artificially inflating prices to maintain a "value." everyone deserves to get that sparkly engagement ring of their dreams!!
Good to hear this 5 year update.
I'm 54, I got married last year, and I chose to do the exact same thing! I have a Moissanite center stone w/natural diamonds around it, and a natural diamond wedding band to match. I love it!! I also bought mine on Etsy! Yours is beautiful too. I just found your channel today :-) New subbie.
I’m just hearing about moissanite. I love this idea. Did you get yours online?
Hello, Audrey, Can you tell me the seller, as I am looking on Etsy for the same kind of ring. Thanks!
That's a great idea to combine moissanite with diamonds. I have a 2ct solitaire my hubby bought me and I purchased a moissanite band to layer it with plus a solid band. I love to stack my rings
I wore a moissanite for a long while. But now that I'm older ( 50) I'm thinking of passing down my rings. So I did upgrade to real diamonds . Very affordable because they're not the very best but it's all good. It's a heart shape with a matching plane eternity band
Beautiful rings 🌹
I have to agree with you about the price point, I purchased the same type of stone and paid way less for it through etsy.
I actually prefer the extra sparkliness of the Moissanite. Now, with lab created diamonds, I could really have either, and I just think the Moissanite is prettier. To me, it’s a stone in its own right and I don’t care if people think it’s a diamond or not. As you said, alternative stones, including colored gemstones, are more common now, and I love them.
Beautiful ring. But that wedding band really pulls the whole thing together. The contrast of the large stone sitting high on the thin band of the engagement ring sitting next to a thick wedding band with clusters of diamonds really makes the whole thing look really balanced.
You are the best, thank you!!!!
Diamonds are forever!
Moissanite has been around since the 1970’s…….Charles and Colvart invented it. I love mine I’ve had it for decade’s.
I spelled the last name wrong…..sorry
Actually space invented it.
Love your jewelry videos! Is your original wedding band that you used in your wedding ceremony still in your collection?
Yes!! It is a David Yurman band & I sometimes wear it stacked with other rings ❤️🥰
Diamonds do not increase. You two were smart!
How does it sit next to the wedding band? Does it overlap or knock?
Looking to pop the question soon. My lady wants a moissanite, white gold, oval, and i think it was solitaire ring. Does anyone know any good websites to get a ring on a budget?
Would you be able to help me understand why some shops are drastically different in costs? I see some on Etsy for $500-$1500.
From what I can see sizes are the same and all are in 14kYG. Just wondering before making the purchase. My original engagement ring was stolen a few days ago, so now my husband wants to get me a new one but I don’t want him spending over 3k as my original one costs.
We love that you love your Dakota! 💍🥰
Yesss it is amazing! Love y'all pieces :)
@@byCHLOEWEN 🥰🥰🥰
Just got a 3 carat moissaniate oval with hidden halo on 18k hello gold. Love my customer ring. I have my original diamond in the safe.
I’ve had brides with diamond rings tell me they wish they had moissanite because it looks better and had more sparkle
Hey! Beautiful ring! Thank your for this video!. Did you get the C&C certificate and life time warranty?
I did not get the warranty, but I don't think it's gonna be an issue. It has really held up well!
Whats your wedding band called. With all the settings
I’ve always loved oval, but my friend told me round is better and looks more like a diamond in moissanite. Is that true? How does your ring look next to a diamond? Honestly after watching this, seeing the rainbow and shine, made me want this more like what I truly want haha. Love this video thank you!
Your ring is gorgeous! I also have moissanite on my engagement ring 😊 What's your nail polish color?
My nail polish color "Endless Sun-ner" - rstyle.me/+mK96Yl3WGhEgs_aNdwrZjg
Re: the investment. Just buy a moissanite and invest the different in a good ETF fund. I can assure you you’ll still get a better return than a diamond 💕
Always love moissanite
Do the prongs hold up ok? Do you ever take it into a jewler to make sure those are ok? Just wondering ive had prongs break on rings. Your ring is so gorgeous
No issues with the prongs so far! 5 years in.
I have a lab diamond. It’s 1.44 in size and it was 1/3 the cost of a real diamond of that size and quality.
I actually like the rainbow sparkle more than the colourless
Same here!
What nail polish are you wearing? It’s gorgeous.
It's a discontinued OPI shade but this is basically the same shade "Endless Sunner" linked here!! - rstyle.me/+mK96Yl3WGhEgs_aNdwrZjg
the rings are gorgeous, especially the wedding band. its not on your page. where did you get it ?
Wedding band is from Hello Noemie shrsl.com/36q0z
Thanks for sharing!!!
Love my moissanite rings
any recommendations on online moissanite bridal ring companies?
I promised myself I wouldn't procrastinate while studying so I can finish early and then I saw this video... 😅😂. I got married in 2018 and still only have a wedding band because I don't feel diamond's are worth the money, I could never see myself spending $20k on a ring bc I want a 2ct+ in size. So I've been researching moissanite for literally years but never gave in because I wasn't sure I believed it would hold up. So when I saw this 5 year review and you still love it I feel confident that I should just order my moissanite ring already. Now, cushion cut or oval?! lol
Great update! I've been looking at them recently. Love the affordable option & I think spending the money on other things is great :) You have a beautiful real stone set in real gold. It is a beautiful ring. There's no need for young couples to go into debt and/or spend precious money that could go towards a home or other things. I've been married almost 20 years and barely wear my real diamond rings. I've found that simple bands are so easy for daily life. I put on diamonds for special occasions. That's why I'm looking into moissanite because I want a statement piece w/o the price b/c I know I won't wear it much. But I want something of quality. This fits the bill. I'll check out your link. Thanks for sharing!!
Totally agree!
Love the band! Where did you get it?
I've got it linked on the blog post :) bychloewen.com/all-topics//5-years-with-my-moissanite-engagement-ring
Please please share what nail polish this is? I am obsessed!!!
It's a discontinued OPI shade but this is basically the same shade "Endless Sunner" linked here!! - rstyle.me/+mK96Yl3WGhEgs_aNdwrZjg
@@byCHLOEWEN Thank you so much! :)
Moissanite is an awesome value for price.
Do you happen to know the height of you mount is?
Thanks for sharing! What size are you? I was thinking of getting 2 carat as well! 😍
I'm a 3.75!
What about insurance? What’s the best way to go to get it fully insured? Seems like all the moissanite jewelers won’t insure them.
Probably home owners insurance. But for $2,000 or less, you really don’t necessarily need insurance
Is this a GHI or DEF stone
May I ask exactly where you purchased your engagement and wedding ring ?
They’re linked in the description box!
What's your ring size?
