I know - I'll always bring mine back to the Naples store to have their engraver do it to make sure it's perfect too!
I got a 19 to have lots of room - could definitely wiggle out of it if I really wanted to (would hurt though!). I hate things tight on my wrists and neck! But I was like you - once I sent it in for engraving I was like, well, there we go - it's officially mine forever! No ebay option ever, no exchanges/resizing... which I kind of like, makes it more "official"! No one else will ever own this bracelet except for me and my family.
I'm not sure I can say the same about my DBTY necklace like the one you returned! Had it lengthened and even though it doesn't flip, and is a "fairly" good sized one (aprox .42 carats? .47?) ... it's ALWAYS getting "pulled back" by the clasps and riding up on my neck! I'm constantly yanking it down... when you look at them they are so petite and pretty but the clasp actually has more weight/metal than the diamond (unless you have a honking big one - my YG one seems to be behaving!
) it seems like it'll always ride up! Probably less obvious on a 16 inch chain... that one MIGHT end up back on ebay one day (before the next increase somewhere! HAHA)You're showing awesome patience not going to pick it up yourself!!!
Can't wait to see the Love. I've been checking back every moment to see when you'll have it it. You and your DF are so sweet.

Lol Yup it is mine forever! I have never sold any of my items...my mom always told me to keep what I buy (unless I can return or exchange at the original store.) Instead, I tend to give whatever items I don't use anymore to close friends, family, etc. It feels good when I give someone something they have been eyeing on me haha. But I must confess I don't have half the nice stuff the lovely women on tpf have so it's not like hitting the jackpot or anything!
but I definitely don't plan on giving the love away!Thanks marialc and lanasyogamama! I will get It on sat so I hope to post pics sometime during the weekend!
DF and I picked up the bracelet this morning! It is gorgeous!! And the engraving is perfect 
I won't post pics of the engraving since it has both of our names on it but be assured that their hand script engraving is absolute perfection! DF had a little bit of trouble putting it on me but he finally screwed it on 
After putting it on, I realized the bracelet can turn 360 on my arm (which is not supposed to happen), but I don't mind it being so big. I like the fact I can push it up on my arm so the VCA and Love aren't clashing into each other. Here are some pics:

Thank you sjunky!!!
You are so sweet! I agree that I am so lucky and blessed to have my fiance. He is such a wonderful man!! 
I am definitely going to wear this on my wedding day!!!
Congrats on your beautiful Love bracelet! And enjoy! I have the WG plain bangle - size 17 and the RG plain cuff - size 17. I can get my bangle to turn 360 with a little pressure. Doesn't really hurt or make a mark on my wrist - but I have to work it. When I got my 1st scratch - I turned it over. Perhaps someday I will get a plain YG Love bangle. If you don't mind me asking - what is the current price in US dollars of the plain YG bangle today and how much increase expected in July?
TIA!
TIA!
Kohl, it is AMAZING on you!! Mine totally spins with the smallest effort, I see nothing wrong with that at all! I think we are about the same - 6" wrist and size 17 bracelet? I love it with your VCA! What an fab jewelry week you are having!!!!
Thanks angelic and akkmv!
Hokaplan - thank you the bangle is now 4850 and with an expected increase of around 11%. I think i will twist it also when I get my first scratch! Haha how useful to have it turn!
Lanasyogamama -
thank you, I had an amazing jewelry week! I think I am done for a long while now. I need to start saving for the wedding! I am actually in-between sizes. My right wrist is bigger than my left at 5.75 inches so the 16 is a little tight (perfect for my right) but the 17 is a little too big haha. oh well but I like having the ability to push it up
