After having 2 kids my real wedding set is too snug to wear comfortably. I wanted to get a realistic-looking set (no 5 carat center stones or multiple stones over a carat each)with an antique feeling to it. This set fits the bill. The center stone is a good size, roughly the same as a 1 carat round diamond. When I first opened the box I was a little disappointed because I thought it looked a bit too fake; that's why I dinged it 1 star. However, after putting it on and wearing it out I've become more impressed with how much light it picks up, and how much life the CZ has to it. I've also gotten several comments on what a beautiful set it is. So far people think it's real, and I'm not going to stop them. Why not have a little fun with it?

**edit** I have carpal tunnel issues and my fingers have swollen up half a size. I bought and returned four other sets that were nowhere near the quality and believability of this set. So I finally caved in and bought this set again. Still great. I wore the smaller set for years, never took it off in the shower, at night, in the pool, while cleaning... Never lost a stone, never turned my finger green. Still looks great. I only got a new set for size. Upping from 4 stars to 5 as it deserves it.
