Thank you for sharing about that beautiful ring and also your engagement party. It never gets old . I turn 63 Saturday and I still find myself staring at my ring sometimes - after all these years! Never feel pressured to share or not share. It’s your story - and I’ve never seen you anyway but humble in your broadcast ! Looking forward to more! I love weddings !💝💍
Love this!!! Congrats!! I’ve been married 11 yrs and I still stare at my ring daily! It’s not huge, it’s a 1K but I never thought I would ever have something so expensive or beautiful! My #1 tip is to get insurance in case gets lost. Also our jeweler said to clean it in denture cleaner and it really works! My wedding ring is an eternity band that goes all the way around and i reccomend that so when it turns around while u are just going about the day and using your hands stlll looks the same.
Love how much of a ring expert you've become! Getting one made is such a great idea. Your ring looks absolutely beautiful and fits you so well! ❤
That feeling doesn't seem to go away, at least for me. I've been married for 7 years now and was engaged for 2 years before we got married, and I still catch myself staring and smiling at my ring. What it represents still feels so special! I'm so so happy for you!
Beautiful ring. I would get a plain platinum band and then an eternity band. The reason is as you move through life you will find it nice to just wear a simple band when doing certain activities. Congrats to you 2!
I watch anything you post 😊 but please don't ever feel you have to discuss anything you don't want to, to please people!
Wow! You did well my dear! It’s beautiful! I’m an accountant and you are definitely allowed to round up and say it’s 4 carats! Lol. Also, unless it’s too late to suggest this, consider a ring guard. That’s where your ring sits down into another “ring” that has an opening big enough for your diamond. It can be a nestle of smaller diamonds and depending on the design can accentuate that GORGEOUS DIAMOND. (I’m sure your jeweler can explain this better than me). Love from Texas ❤ !
Oh Taylor, I was one who requested details, but I hope you didn't feel preasure to share more than you would like. I just remember so fondly the time I spent with my then fiancé researching and choosing a ring. He proposed with no ring spur of the moment, then we picked out the ring together! It was such an exciting time and I guess I wanted to relive that again vicariously through you. Your ring is absolutely gorgeous and I hope it brings you so much joy for the rest of your life. I know that even having worn my ring for the past 7 years, I still look at it with a smile every single day and think how lucky I am that the man I love gifted me such a beautiful token of our commitment to each other.

Oh that’s so lovely and special that he proposed spur of the moment! It is such an exciting time. Thank you for the kind words! And no need to feel like you’ve pressured me, I was happy to make it 💗
Very interesting process. Love that you were so involved and still surprised :)
Beautiful ring! Nothing wrong with knowing what you want, that is what life is for. Thank you sharing your personal details and the details of the ring. I loved hearing all the information, very interesting!

The ring is gorgeous!! And I’m truly happy for you 💕
Absolutely gorgeous ring and you presented this information in such a way that it was genuine and not weird at all. What a sweet couple you seem to be… much love and happiness to you both. 💕
Beautiful engagement ring 💍. Congratulations too you both ❤❤
What a beautiful very unique ring! 💍 Thank you for sharing … I have been engaged since December and I am still obsessed with mine so I hope this is exactly how I wanted it … is to just start and look at my ring forever and don’t get old. Congratulations 🍾 to the both of you! I can’t wait to see which wedding band you would be. Is tonight about the same with some Bling but doesn’t go all the way around as I use my hands too much! 😊Thabks for sharing!
My engagement ring also tapers in like yours. I also loved this little detail and while I've seen it a few times on various websites, I've never seen anyone else with it in person and it doesn't seem to be overly popular (which I love). It does make the diamond appear bigger and is just a little, delicate trick of the eye. I think it feels a bit feminine. Shockingly, my husband did this on his own! I told him what shape I wanted the center stone and a size range in just a plain band/setting. He managed to find a setting that did have a few dainty side stones along that taper and I love it! I have 2 wedding bands. The first one is a "standard" diamond band. No taper or anything. For our 1st anniversary I got a Tiffany gold band, so I did go designer with a thin, simple gold band (very royal family with their Welsh gold wedding bands). I wear that in middle and it's just enough. I don't feel like my center stone is competing with too much bling, but it's just different enough to grab attention. Not everyone loves the mixed metals (engagement and wedding ring are platinum and anniversary ring is yellow gold), but I love it and it matches that mixed metal rolex I've been eyeing😂.
Your ring is stunning!
OMG 🤩 Congratulations again dear Taylor 🌸💖
Hi Taylor, congratulations!💕 Also your eyes look so bright and beautiful! Thank you for sharing😊
Make sure you get your ring specifically listed and insured as part of your renters insurance policy - jewelry is not automatically covered. It would be awful if it were lost or stolen, of course, but even worse if it wasn’t insured because it would be a total loss. You will need the receipt as well as an inspection document from a certified gemologist (which will also include specialized photos of the facets and internal structures). I’ve had my rings as long as you’ve been alive, and I still stare at it all the time. My rings are family heirloom pieces, and the setting of the solitaire is called a “split Tiffany”, or “fishtail” - the tips of the prongs are split in two, which makes the stone almost appear square rather than brilliant cut. I like it because it’s very vintage (goes back 4 generations!,) and different. When I received my eternity ring on an anniversary I chose to have the 3 rings soldered together because they were sliding around in different directions on my finger, which was annoying. Now they are always perfectly in place. I know you will treasure your ring forever.

Great tip! That would be devastating. We did get ring insurance! 😅
Wow i also wanted square and gold in the beginning! 😊 you are so sweet! subbed!
Congratulations! I wish you both all the very best life has to offer! May all your dreams come true
Absolutely gorgeous ring!!! One lucky girl ❤️
Our wedding anniversary is coming up. 21 years. I have a brand new setting now in all rose gold instead of 2 tone yellow with white prongs. Im still staring at my ring after over 2 decades!
It is very pretty ..congrats..I love the leo diamond myself....The single stone is beautiful.
Absolutely stunning 💍💎
Ohhh I love it! Taylor, you should also do a show about any changes marriage may bring ? Like are you staying in the city ? Etc etc ?
Such a beautiful ring.Enjoy.🎉
Gorgeous ring. Congrats on the engagement. I would honestly go with a simple wedding band, with no diamonds, so to let this diamond take the central spot.
Your ring is beautiful. Congratulations! I've been married for 22 years, and I still look at the beautiful, colorless radiant cut diamond ring. You'll always look at it, sometimes more often than others. :-) I agree, a GIA certification is a must, as they are the foremost independent diamond grading institute. Your setting is not a basket setting; it's a 4-prong setting. I had a platinum basket setting for, but it's now set in 4 round prong. You may like a 3/4 diamond wedding band. instead of a eternity band. In this way, the bottom of the ring will just be the platinum. Whatever you choose, it will be lovely!
It's so beautiful, thank you so much for sharing all the deets!!
Gorgeous ring ! Congrats Taylor .I wish you much happiness ❤️
Thanks for sharing all these details, it's a gorgeous ring and really suits you and your style ❤
So so so happy for you!!! I definitely agree that there shouldn’t be any complete surprise engagements! That’s a huge thing to commit to without having a conversation first in my option. I also love the video about what you like/wanted in a ring! I think it’s useful for other people in getting ideas :) I also love that the band of yours looks durable but not too thick!
Your ring is Amazingggggg!!!!
A beautiful engagement ring! 🌸
I think this is an awesome topic! 💖🥰 Thank you Taylor! Your ring is beautiful! 😃 When I got engaged I couldn’t stop looking at my ring either! It’s just so exciting! Such an informative video. 💕
You were so smart about your ring. Designer names are nice in somethings but you get more for your money when you go non-designer. I'm glad you showed it close up. I didn't realize it was a cushion cut. That is my favorite cut. From afar it looked more oval. Such a beautiful ring!
I would recommend getting a basket for under the diamond, just in case one of the prongs gets loose you wont loose youre diamond as fast
Haha…my answer is no, you don’t ever get used to the beautiful ring giving to you by the one you love, and that loves you. I still stare at mine every single day, and I’ve been married for many years. On your wedding band, I was going to do the diamonds all the way around as well. But my jeweler said why put diamonds behind your finger where you will never see them.That made sense to me, so I just have them on the front of my band. Plus, you can go with larger stones that way. 💖🌸 Cannot wait for the wedding dress shopping to begin! I’d love to see you in a LoveShackFancy bridal gown, but I guess we will see!
Hi, Taylor and Happy Thursday in New York City!😊😊😊😊😊😎☀💙💙💙💙💙🌷💖💖💖💖💖🗽🎇👍. Your beautiful ring is so shiny and bright like an emerald from the game called "Bejeweled 2." WOW!!😍😍😍😍😍
Nice congratulations 🎉 ❤
The most important thing is that he considered your opinion, both of you having open communication is absolutely special💜and that's what true love is about, your ring is beautiful but the meaning even more💜 as always best regards 🥀 Miss. Lilly 🥀
I would go with a full eternity wedding band if you have a plain engagement band (no pave). It will definitely bring out the contrast if that is what you are looking for. Your diamond stone is already big, I won't worry about the full eternity wedding band will take over the center stone.
People have told me and I also agree that once u have one that means smtg and is nice, u almost never stop looking at it
For a stone of that size you should really have a basket added to the ring. Any shape that isn't round- if it rotates in the prongs it could fall out!
Beautiful Taylor 💍
It’s so pretty! Be careful about diamonds going all the way around… it can snag clothes! Just something to consider.
Great explanation about yout beautiful engagement ring Taylor, thank you for sharing.
Your ring is beautiful! I'm so happy you got what you wanted and there is nothing wrong with that. To some it may not be important and that is perfectly OK too. ❤
Fellow nyc girlie here! Mind sharing where you both bought the center stone? My bf and I are on the hunt for very highly quality natural diamond center stone and want to ensure we’re going to the right places!
Does Lyle want a wedding ring. I love your engagement ring and now even more because it was so special xxx
Thanks so much for doing this, I’ll guess we were all curious as you say like when any friend gets engaged. Beautifully done … Iovely to hear the story behind it thanks for sharing 💍💍 but of course Lyle is the real diamond 😉
What type of industry is your fiancé in
It’s beautiful.
Just beautiful ❤
I love love love 💕 your ring! Mine was oval I did platinum round the first time lol 😅 and oval with a brushed matte gold and three sizes of matte gold wedding rings…for the the LAST ha! I was cheap the second one and did moissaanite oh and we got married during Rona and the hand sanitizer messed up my matte gold 😢 ha but Taylor soooo happy for you girl!!! So excited for this journey and love seeing updates in your vlog
🎉😊❤🍀🙋♀️ Thanks for sharing your time and the story about your wonderful engagement ring.
And so right no need for designer! You could get a house for that lol I got mine from the diamond district! It was sooo much fun
Thanks for sharing your ring with us! I'm thinking I want cushion as well. I'm guessing that's like a 10k-15k diamond? Will you ever share prices with us?

If that is a natural diamond with those specifications (3.82carat, VVS1, color G) , it would easily cost 50k. And I am guessing it may be a lot more. The larger the diamond the more it cost obviously. But a 2 carat ring for example is far more than a one carat because the stone is more rare. Where if you had a ring with a total carat weight of 3.82 it would be quite cheap in comparison. Small little diamonds are plentiful and inexpensive.
Hi, first I love your ring! Second, I am looking for the same type of basket setting but having a hard time finding one like that. The majority that I see are straight prongs. Can I ask where you got the setting? A chain store or local jeweler?

This is insane that you continue to have this video posted! Taylor! A friend of mine was mugged for her gold necklace you really need to remove this!!!! I bet your fiancé wouldn’t like it or your Dad or Mother! What happens if someone follows you home or murders you for your ring. This video is NOT SAFE!!! Lyle should be upset at this no one has ever done these ring videos!!!! Then you meet with fans for coffee you are being a bit too open. No one needs to know everything!!!! (Try romanticizing being mugged or potentially getting murdered for your diamond ring.)
It is a weird thing to do.........

If you ever come to Europe on holiday don't wear it😂😂. We do not wear such big rings over here. People will think it is fake even if you are rich. Over here 1 carat is huge. I have 1.3 carat and cannot wear it without someone making a dumb comment😂😂
