My FI gave me a 'promise ring' years ago, after we had been together for six years. Three years later he proposed and when he did I moved my promise ring from my left ring finger to my right, to make room for my engagement ring! I have been wearing the two rings on seperate fingers for the past few months and plan to do so till the wedding, but I am thinking that I want to make my promise ring into my wedding band instead of getting a seperate one.
I love this ring and don't want to stop wearing it, but probably wouldn't wear three rings at a time. It's a super simple silver Tiffanys band with three small inset diamonds. It's similar in color and style to my engagement ring. I would probably have my FI get it engraved with something before the wedding, and maybe have the minister incorporate that I am making my promise ring into my wedding band somehow, just to tie it in.
I really like this plan but my mom isn't thrilled by my idea, but won't give me a solid reason against doing it other than 'but you will wish you had another ring.' Any other thoughts on this?
Always try to be a little kinder than is necessary.
