I enjoy the color pink, I'm obsessed with the Dior New Look and tulle, and I heart my level 80 paladin. I'm a sucker for bad TV, literary theory, and cakes of all persuasion. I also happen to be marrying the cutest closet nerd around! It's all about Bloomington for us because it's where we met -- on the college paper. If there's a theme for our small summertime wedding, it's Dior meets Dorothy Draper on a lark in Bloomington; think poofy, plus graphic prints, bold colors, and a whole lot of prettiness.

Rings

May 26th, 2010 @ 6:15 pm by Mrs. Ribbons

I’ve been hush hush about rings since my slight meltdown over the Dior ring. I mourned it and moved on with a little help from a small jeweler out of Philly, Bario-Neal.

They use recycled metals in their rings, have pretty affordable prices, and Ribs and I could get matching rings. Yay. I ended up with the Milla thin band in white gold and Ribs got the Milla round. Best of all, Bario-Neal shipped the rings in adorable glass bottles!

The rings took about six weeks to arrive and we definitely cut it close (they came yesterday!), but the rings are gorgeous. Happily, both rings combined cost less than the Dior ring.

Which of your wedding disappointments had a silver lining?

Thank you, Miss Ribbons! Your post inspired me to get back on the ball and find a ring. (I gave up looking in frustration a month ago, and never quite got back around to it.)

By the way, those are beautiful, and hooray for recycled metal! :)

Oooh! So beautiful! And the packaging! And I LOVE Bario-Neal! Before we decided to have Adzia make both our rings, we were looking at them for F Stripes ring!

That’s so cool they came in glass bottles. Glad you’re happy with your band even though it’s not Dior!
