There were a lot of nontraditional elements throughout the Halloween wedding of the Property Brothers’ older sibling and his makeup artist bride, and that included the one-of-a-kind heart-shaped ring she sported.

Jeweler Tammy Dominik worked with Belle to create the rose gold ring, set with a heart-shaped pink tourmaline and surrounded by 15 small aquamarine, yellow sapphire, diamond and amethyst round stones.

The actor recently said his actress fiancée is “the only girl I ever looked up on the internet,” and perhaps he’s referring to her “dream ring” Pinterest board too – this unique hexagon-shaped stone seems perfect for her.

The supermodel and her musician love have been in a “state of bliss” since his holiday proposal, and they kept the celebration going by debuting her halo-set alexandrite stone between two baguettes at the Golden Globes. “Tom drew the dream ring for Heidi and then went in search of the right stones,” a friend said. “He didn’t just go to the store.”

Dancing With the Stars’ Emma might have been shocked when her fellow pro proposed onstage, but the ring itself wasn’t a surprise — she’d sent her sister strict instructions to share regarding the “wine color,” halo-set pink sapphire she’s now sporting.

It was “love all” when the actress received this gigantic emerald ring with a split shank and halo setting from her former tennis player beau, Ruben Torres. The Colombian emerald represents Torres’ home country, while the Art Deco-inspired setting speaks to Swank’s tastes, a source says of the piece, designed for the couple by Tres Almas‘ Andrea Jaramillo. (Sadly, they called it off a few months later.)

Apparently, the singer’s actor beau couldn’t get her out of his head – because he proposed with a blingy emerald-cut diamond surrounded by two more halos of smaller diamonds. (The two split a year after their engagement.)

Naturally, the star who wore two caped jumpsuits on her wedding day wasn’t going to have a plain old wedding band. And her open-design gold band with two bezel-set stones opposite one another is unconventionally gorgeous, just like Solange’s style. (The two announced their separation five years later.)

The Duck Dynasty star’s peek at her journal (proposal story and all) also happened to showcase her romantic opalescent oval-cut ring.

The bride-to-be looked ecstatic to show off her ruby-and-diamond sparkler from her TV exec boyfriend on The Today Show – even more so because she chose a pair of ruby-and-diamond earrings to match!

“I wanted something different,” Bridget Marquardt told People about her one-of-a-kind pavé diamond spider engagement ring, given to her by horror-film director Nick Carpenter. “The traditional rings were just really, really traditional and I just wanted something different, unique and special. We saw this and I was like, I love that!”

BAND OF GOLD

Cameron Diaz married Benji Madden on a Monday after only a few weeks of engagement – so it stands to reason that her engagement ring (a thick gold band inlaid with sparkling stones) isn’t terribly traditional, either.

Jenny McCarthy’s huge yellow sapphire engagement ring from Donnie Wahlberg may seem hard to misplace, but somehow, the star has managed. “It’s a little hard to get romantic with diamonds on your hand!” she said. “I removed it and put it on the room service table, and they came and turned down the room and the ring was gone.” (She found it, so you can rest easy.)

Amazingly, the heart-shaped diamond on her Lorraine Schwartz engagement ring from her actor love isn’t the most interesting part of Gaga’s engagement ring. The diamond-studded band features a sweet message: T (HEARTS) S (her given name is Stefani). But we won’t have wedding jewelry to look at: They called off their engagement.

For the couple that met on the set of Mad Men, a gorgeous and unique sparkler worthy of that show’s killer costuming was the only thing that would do. And the octagonal stone set on a vintage-inspired band was certainly that.
