This weekend was a productive one for Jim and I! We got our address list almost completely done for the wedding stuff, I did our cost/budget in a spreadsheet instead of on pieces of paper and post it notes (excel sheets do all the math for you!), we picked out and purchased our wedding bands and we started our registering at Macys....which we will finish online because the store didn't have all the colors of stuff that we were looking at and also we did get tired of walking around with the scan gun (although it was fun at first). I think we lucked out with the registry stuff cause the lady there told us we should have gotten an appointment (who knew you needed one for that!?) but there was no one there when we got in and when we left there were like 5 couples waiting for us to finish! sheesh! We also plan to register at Lowes, probably mostly for gift cards, but maybe some tools too!!!! Anyway, it was fun.
Now for the wedding bands....Jim's is titanium so it should never dull or scratch. I think the design is very manly, which is good for a guy who doesn't wear jewelry all that much (ok, EVER) but he likes it and that is the important thing.
Mine is cool because the "dot engraving" on the edges of the diamonds matches the edges of my special ring Jim had made for me...and there is engraved leaves on the side that kind of go with my ring...plus the thickness of the ring is about the same as mine so it doesn't look too small or overpower my engagement ring. I like it. Plus it was on sale! and it came with a lifetime warranty so if anything happens to the diamonds or whatever, we can bring it in and they will fix it for free (or if my finger gets fatter and I need to have it resized) so that is cool.
We are really making progress!
Should get the engagement photos this week and hopefully send out the save the date cards next week! Fingers crossed!!!!
