On Tuesday evening, M and I went out and got his ring size determined by a couple of jewelers. (Naturally, I forced him into two places to double check the first size was correct - totally normal, right?) I told you we were considering going with Etsy for his wedding band, and after some further consideration, I decided to go for it! I love Etsy, I love supporting independent artisans and the price could not be beat. Really - $45 for a wedding band, no tax nor shipping? Now that is a language I can speak. Fluently. So we got home that night and I took one last look through the many styles offe... |
Lotus Dude and I went to try on our wedding bands last week, and we were super excited. They turned out perfectly, which was a relief as it took us a long time to find them. Initially, we could not find any rings that we both liked. We were preparing to just buy rings that had no similarity at all, since I didn’t think it was fair for one of us to have to compromise on a piece of jewelry we will have to wear every day. The jewelry store we bought my engagement ring at was having a sale, so we decided to check out their offerings and order our rings. As we wandered around the store,... |

Filed under: Jewelry & Accessories Cheryl Hoffman When you're shopping for your wedding bands, buy a ring that will both complement your engagement ring and be something you'll feel comfortable wearing every day. Your wedding band doesn't have to match your groom's band exactly. He should find a ring that he feels comfortable wearing. And if your groom is not planning on wearing a wedding band every day, he should still buy one for the wedding ceremony if you are planning on exchanging rings. Permalink | Email this | Comments... |

When I was wedding planning, I found myself pleasantly surprised at how open and honest my husband was throughout the process. He shared his likes and dislikes, he coordinated with his groomsmen and he even picked out his own tuxedo. Things were so smooth that I thought that everything would remain perfectly blissful. However, our state of marital bliss came to an end when I mentioned two little words–”wedding bands.” It seemed that my fiance never even considered the fact that he would have to wear a ring. It’s not that he was against the idea of what the ring represented, but r... |
We all have individual taste, some of us more conservative, while others are quirky and unique. These whimsical wedding bands are definitely suited for people who like things a little offbeat. While strangely different in style and design the message these bands represent is the same as any other! These silver and gold bands feature an etched sound wave symbol meaning “I Do”. The second pair features a picturesque mountain landscape that only true outdoorsmen/women would appreciate. These unconventional wedding bands are certainly one of a kind. The two bands match up perfectly like ... |
