Wedding Bands

in June 2012 Weddings
So, we decided on a wedding band for me!
FI's uncle was in the military and used to be stationed in Saudi and so he knew everyone really well. Well, he bought a TON of jewelry over there and they gave FI a diamond band to give me on our wedding day.
Well, at first I was kind of awkward about it because my e-ring is white and the band is yellow. Well, I put it on the other day and started crying. IDK why, but I was just so overwhelemed.
FMIL also gave me one of her bands without diamonds for those times when diamonds just aren't good to wear, (missions trips, at the hospital, anytime I could get my ring jacked, etc)
I never knew that rings could make you all sappy and stuff. :)
We also decided on FI's ring. I will get a picture of his soon.

    That is so exciting! I love my wedding band too but it's currently too big. We're going the first weekend in February to get it resized!

    That's awesome, congrats! Our jeweler hasn't started designing ours yet, but sometime next month we're going to stop in with something we want engraved and if they haven't started on them yet we'll get them on it. I also need to decide on what I want for jewelry (which they're also making).

    I will try to get some pics of mine tonight.
    Zims- all you see is diamonds. If its done well, it looks great.
    And, btw I think if you were given a ring with huge sentimental value, you would get over the mixing of the golds. 
    Also, this ring is so unique and no one else will ever have this ring or one like it. 

    Honestly, at first, I was skeptical about it because I was snobby and wanted all white, but I grew up and got over it. I figured, if it made me cry, then it must be the one. Here again, with FI's aunt dying it's the only thing we will have left of her for the rest of our lives.
    I intend to pass this ring down through the decades.
    Sentimental value trumps color.

    That's amazing - I can't wait to see pictures, either!  I can't blame you for getting sappy, even if there was no sentimental value; I think that makes it all the better, though :)

    I totally agree. I just wanted to say that if you did want it white, they can turn any yellow gold into white. (White gold is just plated yellow gold.)

    Sorry if that was snarky I didn't mean it to be. I'm very matchy and color coordinated. Also not a fan of yellow gold so that was just my opinion
