Wedding Bands&Engraving

Hey all!

My fiance and I started looking at wedding bands with our family jeweler. She mentioned letting her know once we've decided what we'd like to engrave onto the bands.

What's everyone engraving on to theirs or has engraved? There are so many ideas, but of course limited space. Part of me wants our names and our wedding date, but it won't fit anything else if we wanted a saying on it too, so we are torn.

  • Fi's is titanium so we can't really get it engraved but he wanted Put Me Back On
  • We're doing "Amore Eterno" which is Italian for Everalsting Love with our wedding date. It's sweet and simple and one of our favorite phrases - on our first date, we saw it hanging above our heads at Delmonico's so it just seemed right...

  • FI wants the wedding date engraved on ours at least.  I like the Amore Eterno suggestion since FI is Italian.
  • Ours will be engraved with 'always & forever' and the wedding date.
  • I am getting "Love You More, 6-16-12". It's something we always say to each other.
    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
  • Our is going to say "pinky promise" and the date. It is something we have always done since we started dating.

    Haha I love this. And I'm glad this question was asked because FI and I are wondering the same thing. I was thinking of putting each others names and the date but FI didn't seem to crazy about that.

  • We're not getting them engraved. Is that weird? lol
  • I don't think it's weird Midge.  We went back and forth on it a lot before deciding that we wanted to.
  • I'd never even heard of that being common practice until TK. We might get something engraved later, but it's just not something either of us finds necessary to spend the money on at the moment.
  • I know people that have done both.  We probably wouldn't have done it if it was extra but the woman making our rings does the engraving for free so that helped us decide that we wanted to do it.
  • I can't get mine engraved because it's an eternity band and there isn't anywhere to do it.

    I am going to get FI's engraved though. I'm pretty sure I'm putting, "My whole heart, my whole life," but I'm not 100% sure yet.

  • I got a line from our song engraved on my FI's ring.
  • We're not getting ours engraved.

  • When we were looking at getting our bands custom made, the jeweler had such a cute idea:  Set a small piece of FI's birthstone on the inside of the band (instead of engraving), and put mine inside his.   We have since decided against custom bands (FI loses any ring he puts on his finger so we are going for a titanium one instead of gold - cheaper to replace!) but I thought that was a really cute idea!

    I still want to engrave mine, but I haven't decided what I want!

    That really is such a cute idea! It's why my wedding band has sapphires in it. Both of our birthday are in September and we were also engaged in September. :)

    (And I love sapphires)
  • I wish I could engrave my FI's band but his is titanium so I can't.  My band isn't getting engraved either since his is not.  I thought about doing something about love you in italian and our date or something along those lines.
