When you work for a jewelry designer, you don’t stop with one “something borrowed.”\u00a0 As you can see, Eryn also wore my opal studs<\/a>, while her mother wore my Papessa prayer locket necklace. (The bridesmaids also got to borrow.) Here’s a close-up of Eryn’s pieces. I’m proud to say she mixed metals.<\/a> The earrings are set in 18K yellow gold, while the necklace is 18K white gold.<\/p>\n

I created her wedding band with the same vine-like motif, but in 18K yellow gold with black diamond accents. She requested the style, metal, and gems, but she didn’t get to see the finished ring until the big moment. I like to keep those surprises<\/a> coming.<\/p>\n

The band is curved gently to fit around her engagement ring, and it’s slim, to leave room on that finger for an 18K white gold anniversary band. (Hint, hint.) Once again, best wishes to Eryn, and congratulations<\/a> to her handsome groom, Donnie!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
