  • Ugh, no, not yet, we keep trying and something keeps coming up. Hopefully this weekend! I doubt we will get them engraved.

    Yes!  Bought mine in January, and FI's in April! We decided not to do engraving, mostly because we couldn't really think of anything short enough and special enough to us that would fit.

    I want to wear mine all the time, and I secretly try it on, but shhhhh!

  • We got ours! Actually, that was one of the first things we did just because we were going back and forth on the wedding or courthouse thing. The rings we knew we needed either way.

  • We ordered ours but FI's is on backorder so we haven't picked them up yet...so no pics :(  FI's looks a lot like lv2011's FI's ring.

    We had them engraved with our wedding date.

  • Here are mine.  We got them in December when we were Christmas shopping.  FI wants to get them engraved but I am not sure with what yet.  I was thinking we could put "Handful" and our wedding date.  Handful is from me calling him Handsome and him calling me Beautiful.  So I think that would be kinda cute.

  • We haven't gotten FI's yet just because he can't make up his mind on what he wants.  We got mine in December because they were having a really good sale and I fell in love with it.  It's a jacket, not a band, so I'm kinda sad I won't be able to wear my e-ring while getting ready the day of the wedding.  Or, I might just hand it over to the best man right before we walk down the aisle :)

  • FL is using his father's old wedding band.  FL's father and mother updated their bands for their 25th wedding anniversary.  So we are going to pass the band down in generations after us.  I on the other hand can't make up my mind of what I want.  We will hopefully have it purchased by August.

  • My engagement ring came withthe band, which I was more than thrilled about. I did not want to try and find a band to match- working in a jewellery store I realized how hard and frustrating it would be.

    mine:
    3 CT. T.W. Quad Princess Cut Diamond Bridal Set in 14K Gold - Zales

    Fi does not wear jewellery, and has lost every piece that he has ever been given, I knew that getting him to ever wear one is going to be a challenge, so I told him to pick someone out that he would actually wear....

    Titanium Camo Ring

    He is the one wearing it not me.
  • Bahhh, no!  Althought last night the only thing I could get him to sit still for long enough to tell him he needs to email his ring lady, who he designed my e-ring through.  Hopefully he will do so soon, so we can order them!!

    image
  • Yes, we bought them in October.  The Jewelry store where FI bought my E-ring was having a special where if you spend a certain $ amount, you got a free iPad.  So 2 rings and an iPad...yes please!

    We just have to take them back at some point to get them engraved.  We'll probably have something simple, like our initials and 10-12-12 since my ring can only fit about 15 characters/spaces.

    Here are some pics.  Sorry about the poor quality, my iPhone camera was scratched back when I took these pics.

    Mine - Micropave diamonds on a platinum band


    His - Tungsten band

  • My ring and E ring cam together



    And FI ring 



    We both picked it out...I was surprised he didn't want something more simple. But its the only jewelry he will wear!

  • UGH negative. FI is being picky on what he wants and mine has to be custom made to match up. The sad part they need my ring for 4-6 weeks! Trying to find a good time, with showers and engagment pics its near impossible.
  • We've looked but FI doesn't want to buy (or even look again) until late june or July.  I'd like to get them engraved with our initials separated by the infinity symbol (and maybe wedding date if there's room.

    Actually, I found it on Overstock! It was a great deal at $160 :)

  • We found a ring for him on overstock, and I just snagged a ring sizer that my mom had so we can size him and order it tonight. Mine is a little trickier because of the shape, so I'm not sure what I'm doing yet. I have a feeling this should be a siggy closer to our dates :)

    Yes. I want to say we got them a couple of months ago when we were in the area (NJ) bc FI had to get measured for his best friend's wedding. We went to the same place he got my e-ring.
    Here is mine with my e-ring!



    And this is FI's



    We are not planning on getting them engraved.
  • My e-ring has amethyst stones in it and a few months ago it had to be sent out for repair.  We ordered the wedding band at that time so they could match the stones with the e-ring. 


    We haven't gotten FI's ring yet bc they told us the material he wants is hard to resize so we are waiting as long as possible since he just had WLS and will be dropping weight like crazy.

  • We got ours last month. 
    I had to put FI's away since he wanted to keep wearing it since he likes it so much.

  • We haven't gotten ours yet.  We got engaged only 3 1/2 months ago, so we paid for a lot of wedding stuff right away.  I'm thinking next month for the bands.  I haven't thought about getting them engraved or not.  I kind of want to do the fingerprint thing.

  • We bought mine a couple months ago. My FI couldn't decide if he wanted to use his fathers or get a new one. He just decided today he wants a new one as he has been wearing his dads on his right hand, so we will be shopping for his soon.

  • Got them two weeks ago!!

  • We got ours but I don't have a pic cause we're moving and don't want to lose them in the move so they're at the BM's house. We want to get them engraved but my band is too narrow (I have size 4 finger and didn't want a wide band). Thinking about engraving my ering and his band. Mine would just say "Tom's" and his "Nora's". We thought it was cute and to the point.
