We all love the glamor of celebrity weddings. Even though the marriages don’t always last, who can resist the glittery allure of a star-studded wedding or engagement? We can’t help but love the posh venues, the celebs on the guest list, and the dresses and decor that spare no expense!
Even celebrity engagements are extravagant. A few years ago, Jennifer Lopez famously received a 6-carat pink diamond from Ben Afleck… Imagine the attention you’d get with a rock like that! After they split, though, it was returned to Harry Winston.
When Brad Pitt proposed to Jennifer Aniston, he designed her ring himself, using a total of 18 carats of diamonds in a white gold setting. After thinking about that 18-carat ring, Kate Hudson’s 5-carat diamond seems small. Musician Chris Robinson gave her the old fashioned Asher-cut diamond when he proposed. Sadly neither of these couples is still together.
Michael Douglas gave Catherine Zeta-Jones a gorgeous antique engagement ring, with a 10-carat diamond. Finally, a Hollywood couple who are still married!
You may not be able to emulate the stars’ huge engagement diamonds, but why not copy the Arquettes’ idea and add a romantic inscription to your wedding ring? Rumor has it that still-married Courtney Cox Arquette and David Arquette have “A Deal’s a Deal” engraved inside both of their wedding rings.
