Banding Together

September 9th, 2010 @ 3:50 pm by Mrs. Starfish

Our wedding bands are in! I was a little antsy waiting for mine because when I went to try on the matching band to my engagement ring they didn’t have it in stock. I tried on two other bands, which were basically the same, but one was a bit thinner, the other a bit thicker. The sales associate told me the third option would be just right, but not having tried it on, I was a bit worried. But now it’s here and the sales associate was right, it’s perfect! I love that it looks just as beautiful on its own as it does with the engagement ring.

After picking them up we decided to engrave our rings. At first we were going to surprise each other. But, we both knew what the other one would choose because we both came up with the same idea.

I knew for sure I wanted to engrave “I love you more” on Mr. Starfish’s band, but as soon as I thought of it, I knew he did, too.

It was what he said during his proposal, what we say when we hang up the phone, and it’s a line in our first dance song. So instead of surprising each other we decided to both engrave it on both bands—since it was pretty obvious, anyways.

Did you or your fiance engrave your rings? What do they say?

His says “Until my heart stops beating” and mine says “Grow old along with me.” We surprised each other. I love the sentiment of engraving, it’s so sweet.

My husband wanted to wait until our one year anniversary to do it. :) If possible I think we are engraving his with Love in Chinese and mine with Love in German.

Aww, they look perfect. I have no idea what to engrave ours with yet. Hopefully we’ll figure it out soon. :)

Hilarious! Fiance and I say this to each other all the time. We make a competition out of it!!! Such a great idea to have it engraved in your bands!

We have our date, but I wanted TCBY because it’s our secret code for saying “I love you.”

I don’t think we’ll be able to engrave ours, due to what they’re made of. Oh well.

Love that. I think engravings make wedding rings that much more special.

Ohhh pretty! I hope we can get our rings engraved just like yours. I’d like “Hello, kitty” on mine- that’s what Mr. G first said to me. I was wearing a bear ear headband but he thought I was a cat!

I giggled when I read this because we say the same thing! I really like a ring from Tiffany’s that says I Love You all the way around it, and I’m planning on secretly getting I love you more inside his!!

I engraved “I am the mess you chose” on his. I don’t think he engraved mine but I haven’t seen it. We’ve chosen not to share the other’s wedding bands until the big day. So he doesn’t know! :) I love him but I don’t think he’d think to engrave mine.

I went with that engraving because it is from Staind’s song “Everything Changes” - this is the first concert we went to together, our favorite song together by them, the first song he learned to play on the guitar for me and when we get frustrated with each other we always say “remember, I am the mess you chose!!!” So it’s VERY significant and I know he will love it! :)
