We're also getting his interview date engraved on the inside for two reasons - 1, because we have no idea what our wedding date would be anyways, and we want it engraved in Paris, and 2, because his interview date is the first day of spring, and new life, and it will be the start of our new life together.

We both do, and it was very important to us that they be identical (except his is slightly wider). Unfortunately his is only ¾-size bigger than mine so I sometimes put his on by mistake without realizing (mine doesn't fit on his finger though).

I also wear an engagement ring ... which is not the ring I wore when we got engaged ... it was an heirloom we'd wanted to get reset but couldn't afford to (since we were paying for immigration!) so we got it reset about a year and a half after the wedding. He designed it and it matches the wedding band.

We both wear wedding rimngs, I origianlly had bought us a matching set, Well I lost my Wedding band at the gym :blush:

I had insured hers not mine :(

I replaced mine with a TUNGSTEN CARBIDE Black Ice wedding band. Tugnsten is the Strongest non Alloy metal on Earth

( 9 on MOHS scale of hardness) It is not very flashy no diamonds , but is very rugged and will never scratch.

I have gotten more compliments on this ring than my other one that cost me 3x as much.

I still take it off before going to Work out but I leave it at home.

That is nice looking ring! We've started looking at plain white gold weddings bands, but I'd be open to trying this kind of ring for me. :thumbs:

I carried my mother's wedding band with me to the Philippines for Kathlene and then I bought my band there so her ring is from America and my ring is from the Philippines.

(at least I thought it was a cute idea!)

I had a White Gold band before it looked ok, but kind of plain and un-original.

Also Gold is Soft & Scratches easily. Tugnsten Looks nice/sharp and is Scratch proof. It is so strong that Tungsten Rings come with an ALert card for Medical professionals on how tro remove it, as it cant be cut using certain Surgical intruments.

We will both be wearing wedding bands once we are married.

In fact, I was just looking at them today. Sad story is that when I went to the jeweler, it was to get my engagement ring setting changed to the setting it SHOULD have been originally. When I got it back after the work was done.... I noticed that they chipped my diamond. I'm so mad. Now I have to wait up to 4 weeks to get a replacement back. Makes me rethink about getting my wedding bands there. Too bad, because I saw the wedding band that I want.
