One Ring To Rule Them All...

Steve and I had been planning to make a Valentine's weekend of it, next week, and go to the Jewellery Quarter on the Saturday to choose our wedding rings, and then on the Sunday, attend Steve's gala dinner for 'I Am The West' but the dinner's been postponed, and Steve came by on Friday with a bottle of posh prosecco for me (which was a buffer btw) as he is now having to work next Saturday.

So instead, we did it all yesterday!

We met Chris our photographer and my friend Keily at the Beacon to chat about what we want from the day, and headed down to Birmingham afterwards to the Jewellery Quarter.

I didn't really want white gold, I wanted something more hardwaring, like platinum, but due to the cost and Steve's face going green, I opted for palladium in the end.

We went into about eight different shops, comparing, contrasting, and Steve went for a 6mm titanium ring which was £60, and mine was a 2.5mm paladium ring costing £81.25 (you pay by the weight!)

I was looking at 3mm but as my engagement band is so narrow, I really quite liked the narrow wedding band. I have such short fat fingers that the more narrow the better for me really!

And here they are in their little gift bags:

And mine is on the left, and Steve's on the right:

And time for a close up!!
I was very happy yesterday indeed! So we came home, had a celebratory indian take-away, and opened the prosecco. Lovely lovely!!
