Recently, my husband, Jake and I celebrated our 7th wedding anniversary. Back when we got married, we didn't have a lot of money, so I guess you could say I didn't have a real "wedding" ring. We used a ring that he had given me as a gift. It was a humble, yet beautiful blue topaz stone with a tiny diamond on either side. It was fine by me and I had no intentions of us "upgrading" to anything more.
However, last year, on my 30th birthday, about 5 1/2 years into our marriage, my husband did the sweetest thing and "re-proposed" at our wedding site in front of many of our friends just before my birthday dinner. I was caught completely off guard.
He presented me with a gorgeous solitaire diamond ring. It was beautiful. Technically, it was only the engagement band. Since then, I've been asked when I will get a wedding band...and while I find that a totally insensitive question for someone to ask, I would kindly reply that I don't think we intend on ever getting one, and hey, it took 5 years to get the ring, give me a break! Haha.
Anyway, last month, Anjolee contacted me and asked if they could send me a ring of my choice off of their website and I thought it would be the perfect opportunity to find a band that would go with my ring. I chose the Unique Shared Prong Diamond Eternity Ring. I received it last week and it is absolutely beautiful.
It is a band with diamonds all around. I think it looks perfect next to my engagement band. The design on this particular one is very intricate, I love the U-shaped settings the diamonds are in. Although I was more than happy with the ring my husband worked so hard to surprise me with, it sure will be nice not to get that annoying wedding band question anymore!
Check out Anjolee - they have wedding bands, engagement rings and more. The quality is absolutely stellar in my opinion.
