“the strongest and sweetest songs yet remain to be sung”
(walt whitman)
i LOVE the custom one, i have this shop saved on my etsy favorites, we’ve always said we’ll love each other “forever and always” so what better to have on our ring bowl than that!
Can we mix and match as To have and to hold plus our wedidng date would be sooo cute 
Oh! I heart these ring bowls. The plain bowl with a gold loop! I’ve been thinking of ways to honor my fiance’s brother who passed, and what an incredible gift to have our rings held by a sprig from the lime tree his brother planted as a child.
I love the personalized bowl! I’d either do a Maya Angelou quote, or our names and wedding date (9.19.09)!
What an awesome give-away!
The custom ring bowl! Don’t know if this can be done but I’d love to have one that has the Chinese character for “double happiness” or “love” and the date
I would love a custom bowl to put part of our vows on it!

i’ve been in love with custom text ring bowl for such a long time now because i think it will be perfect to be passed amongst our guests during the ceremony for our ring blessing the only problem is that my fh and i have been struggling with what to say, but i think we’ve finally decided on our favorite pablo neruda quote - “ninguna mas, amor, dormira con mis suenos. iras, iremos juntos por las aguas del tiempo” meaning….”no one else, Love, will sleep in my dreams. i will go, we will go together over the waters of time” - so so beautiful!
