Nihil Obstat Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 My wedding is about 22 months away, but we've started planning anyway. I plan on getting a band like this one: [img]http://www.tungsten-jewellery.com/image/tungsten-carbide-ring-3.jpg[/img] Tungsten carbide, so the polish never wears out, it will never scratch, and it can't bend.

LaPetiteSoeur Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 I found out this year that my friend's father has somehow gone through THREE wedding rings. The first I think went down the drain. The other got lost in a field (like an expansive field, with no hope of ever finding it, though they tried.). The other flew off when he was fixing a car. No joke. Now his ring has the IV engraved in the back. My friend thinks it's hilarious. But I hope this doesn't happen to any phatmassers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archaeology cat Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 I don't think anyone has ever guessed that my wedding ring is silver instead of being white gold or platinum. I wanted silver. Of course, I'm also allergic to gold. Yep. I'm weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought a band that was supposed to be white gold and turned out to be silver (we got ripped off) so I think that influenced my decision to go with yellow gold in the end.

CatherineM Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 I insisted on a silver engagement ring. It's family tradition. He didn't object to me just wanting a $50 engagement ring, for some strange reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archaeology cat Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Yeah, our wedding bands were like $30 for the both of them. We then had them engraved, so it came to about $60 total for both of them. Can't complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the171 Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Weeeeellll, my brother is getting married in the Cathedral by their college chaplain. I'm kind of annoyed by the date....because I have to leave a core team event early. BUT OH WELL. They've been together for 7 years. And she's really short....and heels+cathedral floor=falling while i was receiving the eucharist in the EFM....Her engagement ring is GORGEOUS. My brother has GREAT taste.

I'll have to find a picture of them together. they are adorable. OH, and the date is June 1st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
