Lord of the rings...
...back to more sensible things.... today I am going ring shopping???? With only 8 weeks until we take off and fly to mexico I have finally been duped into shopping for wedding rings. I have one problem with this. I hate jewellery on a man. So I have dilemmas to face that I have never faced before. Shall I go for the big bold gold sovereign ring or a simple silver band? Do I go for engraved or patterned? Do I go post modern and get something made out of cast iron? I don't know.
Louise you see is all with the clapping.... so excited by the thought and ok maybe this is quite a big thing but knowing how fat my knuckles are I feel pressurised into making a good first decision, 'cos I know that whatever gets past the knuckle ain't coming off (Stu, stop your dirty thinking). I'm also scared of the fact that whatever I choose this evening will be it - for the rest of my faithful life... Any advice?

Do they make clip on rings--you know, like the ties? Because I can't seem to get them off once I get them on, either.
Good luck, Scraps
I honestly had not thought of anything dirty until you told me not to :p
For my money, go plain silver bands. But take a look at her jewellery - does she wear mostly gold or mostly silver? Does she prefer ornate stuff or does she like simplicity? Take that into consideration along with your own tastes so you have something you both like. Engraving on the inside of the ring is a very nice touch - it keeps it nice and simple on the outside and the inside is a special something between just the two of you. It'll mean a lot to her, too.
The deed is done. I am now the proud owner of an £850 simple platinum 'band sytle' ring. Beautiful but as I don't like wearing jewellery - makes me look like a chav or a darts player.
ooj, i like them white goldy sort of fatter rings with a gold stripe in the middle... did that make any sense...? no? well, at least i tried to be helpful. :P
and way too late at that....
Mine is a white gold / titanium ropey style ring. Sounds hideous from that description but it's actually quite nice.
