My enthusiasm for each of these activities far surpasses my skill. Thank goodness Mr. Cucumber Sandwich is there to pick up the pieces and be the voice of reason about my DIY tries. I have an obsession with terrible romantic comedies (‘From Justin to Kelly’ anyone?, anyone?!?), competitive Scrabble play, and hot dogs. I could eat astronaut ice cream for every meal and can’t seem to resist buying more shoes. Our wedding is going to be a true hodge podge of semi-destination, tradition, Yuengling, New England charm, with just a dash of ‘Jersey Shore’ thrown in. It has been six years in the making and I can’t wait to marry my best friend.

Ring My Bell

July 25th, 2011 @ 3:13 pm by Mrs. Cucumber Sandwich

Mr. Cucumber Sammie and I made a trip down the road this weekend and got our wedding bands! I thought we would need to order them but, lucky for us, Mr. CS and I are both a perfect showroom size and walked out with our rings.

Did someone say photo shoot!?!

Ooooh, matching boxes!


What could be inside? Only the best present ever!

And now please indulge me while I pretend to be “artsy.”

I love, love, love, love them! We got them both at Jared the Galleria of Jewelry for the best price we found and a lifetime guarantee on my diamonds. My ring is 14k white gold with round-cut channel-set diamonds three quarters of the way around. Mr. CS’s ring is tungsten. We had them engraved, and I am excited that even though we don’t have matching rings we have matching engravings.

I don’t know if I will be able to stop myself from sneaking up to Mr. Cucumber Sammie’s sock drawer and putting it on while he is not home. I am beyond excited to get to wear it permanently in just a couple of weeks!

Have you gotten your ring yet? Any ideas on how to prevent myself from wearing it around the house?

Store it at your mother’s house. That’s what I had to do, ha!

Hide it in the back of a drawer where your cats (or in your case, puppy) can’t get to it and then eventually forget where you put it before you frantically search for it and find it in said drawer. Maybe that’s just me though…

Your rings are so pretty, I love that you got matching engravings!

Haha, I couldn’t resist the temptation of putting my wedding band on quite frequently. Just you know, to make sure it still fit and all. ;) I’m no help there!

It looks great with your e-ring!

I haven’t gotten my wedding band yet, but I can imagine how hard it will be not to wear it before the wedding!!

OH, nice! His looks similar to my guy’s. To prevent myself from wearing the ring around the house, I asked the mister to hide it from me. But I found it. Oops. Also, I like your blog post title ;)

Gorgeous rings! I jumped the gun and bought mine 11 months before the wedding. I got caught with it on one day and before long my dad was locking it up in his gun safe five hours away! Enjoy it while ya still can;)

Thanks to all for the advice on how not to wear it but sadly it is not working. I find myself sneaking up there at least once a week to put it on. Oh well hopefully the wedding will come soon and I can wear it all the days!
