Our Precious Rings


So today I woke up to it poring down rain and quickly made the decision that I was staying inside as long as humanly possible or until the rain quits. So here is where I decided to park myself:
While I was just hanging out with my lovely PC and being deprived of clear desk space to work on some wedding crafts due to the overwhelming amount of room that turn tables take up, I thought it would be fun to take some time and get some shots of my boys wedding ring.

So a little about his ring and the journey we had finding it:
His ring was rather hard to find. I think he was just as picky as I was when it came to this choice. I was told that it had to be a comfort fit shank and it had to be either Tungsten or Titanium. Since he has to work with his hands a lot I was totally on board with the idea of getting something that wouldn't end up getting really scratched. But, it seemed like every single little circle I found to adorn his hand wasn't right for him. There I was spending hours on the above machine searching the Internet far and wide with not much to show for it. We had been to all the local stores and had come up empty handed as well. I tried everything I could think of, even looking at some custom stuff on Etsy. Still nothing was right.
I was about to put this shopping hunt on hold for a few months so that some new items could join the old inventories and maybe give me something that we both liked when I came across a little shop on Amazon. The seller is Sabrina Silver, and they have some amazing things at some AMAZING prices! And that is where we found it, the Titanium band that he would wear the rest of his life was there among all the other pretty shiny things. We were so excited to click the buy button and check out with one more item crossed off the list. I waited VREY anxiously for less than a week when the little brown box used for shipping was found inside our mailbox.

Well as soon as we got it I made him try it on and the little butt head wouldn't take it off. We had to go to the store and he insisted that he wear it "just to be sure." Finally, after a couple hours I coxed it off his had and into the safe, until now that is.

So today I got our bands out and started snapping! Here are some of my favs from the lot:
