The wedding of 2011 has been announced! Prince William and Katie Middleton have announced their engagement. And to seal the deal, Prince William asked for Katie’s hand with his late mother’s sapphire engagement ring. A truly touching moment for all of the world.

The sapphire and diamond engagement ring was created by Garrard in 1980. The ring featured an 12-carat oval Ceylon sapphire surrounded by 14 solitaire cut diamonds and set in 18-carat white gold. Some says that the Princess selected the ring because it was “the biggest” in a tray of rings sent by Garrard. However, the Princess herself said that the ring was selected by the Queen and Prince Charles.
