What is the cost of Gerry Turner and Theresa Nist's wedding rings? Neil Lane's diamond to rock 'The Golden Wedding'
LA QUINTA, CALIFORNIA: Gerry proposed to Theresa on the last episode of 'The Golden Bachelor' on November 30, and they'll be saying "I do" in just a few hours with all of Bachelor Nation watching at home. Bachelor Nation will now witness the couple exchange wedding rings live on television, with a keen eye on those rocks.
Gerry touched the hearts of 13.9 million viewers when it initially aired. His first one-on-one date with Theresa was a beautiful occasion that highlighted their initial connection.
They both related that they had previously been married and had lost their spouses after more than 40 years of marriage.
Gerry and Theresa will now go down the aisle for the second time, live on ABC! They don't want to squander any time as the wedding approaches.
With an all-paid ABC wedding on the horizon, viewers are bound to be curious about the wedding bands' prices. Even though we don't know how much the diamonds will be worth, we can make an approximation based on the only other wedding in Bachelor Nation, that of Sean Lowe and Catherine Giudici.
With their very beautiful wedding in 2014, they really took the fairy tale romance thing to the next level, and their Neil Lane wedding bands are no exception. The couple plainly understood that if you're going to have an enormous, star-studded, televised wedding, you need some significant jewelry to match the extravagant occasion.
On the day he proposed to Catherine at 'The Bachelor' finale, Sean picked out a 3.15-carat platinum and diamond Neil engagement ring with a vintage feel to it. However, we really like that the pair opted for rose gold bands rather than platinum when it comes to band selection.
Catherine's band is undoubtedly the result of the jeweler's lavish attention to detail. The brilliance doesn't end there; he added 114 round-cut little diamonds to hers.
On her wedding day, Catherine wore a 50-carat bracelet and 25-millimeter pearl-drop platinum earrings (each with 20 carats of diamonds). For the reception, she changed into a set of diamond drop earrings.
Neil, too, did not overlook Sean. Who says bridal bling is exclusive? The platinum cufflinks with 10-carat diamonds and the four matching shirt studs with 20-carat diamonds gave the groom a glamorous look.
So, we can expect Neil to surely deck our elderly couple with similar haughty bling for 'The Golden Wedding' on January 4.
What is the cost of 'The Golden Wedding' star Theresa Nist's engagement ring?
Gerry proposed to Theresa with a massive diamond ring from jeweler Neil, who also appeared on the hit show to assist Jerry in selecting the ideal gem. When the rock was still in its elegant black velvet jewelry box, the TV personality went down on one knee and offered it to Theresa.
The magnificent ring was set in gold and included a princess-cut diamond as the center stone, as well as two longer baguette diamonds on the sides. According to Chris Arakel of The Diamond Bank in Los Angeles, the rock seems to be worth around $40,000, according to DailyMail.com.
Since the center stone is large and the baguettes are not small, the price is on the expensive side. It is set in a classic, traditional style.
Where is 'The Golden Wedding' being held?
It makes sense that the wedding's location is a secret. However, Reality Steve offered some speculation as to the location of the wedding.
Theresa and Gerry were spotted touring the La Quinta Resort & Club in La Quinta, California, according to Steve. As the pair explored the venue, he shared two photos of them on X. "This is where their live wedding will be taking place," he captioned the photo.
