Buying wedding bands...

Hi all- How far in advance do you buy your wedding rings? What does it usually run for men's/women's plain bands (platinum)...I am clueless. I already know because we're on such a tight budget that the ring of my dreams is out of the question right now :(. I figured maybe for our 5 year anniversary I can get what I've always wanted...Thanks in advance! :)

Hello Marnles, have you forgotten?

try asking my fi, after all he's just down the hall. I don't know how you feel about it, but his dad could probably find what you are looking for for a great price. If he can't come up with anything, try some other place. I hope you didn't take this the wrong way. Not trying to stir up business for him. And by the way, I keep forgetting to ask you if you ever got your ring sized. Anyway, please don't bite my head off tomorrow. I'll talk to you later. Me. Ps. bet you are looking foward to seeing my angels for library!

Buying wedding bands...

We just picked ours up from Fortunoff - we got 2 platinum bands. They had to be ordered and they took about 3-4 weeks. We then had them engraved and picked them up a week later. So, you probably don't want to wait until the last minute.

Melissa..

His band was around $850 I think and mine was around $750. If you register at Fortunoff, you will save 10% on the price of the bands. We are very happy with them.

Yes, we got them engraved at Fortunoff - the cost depends on how many letters you want engraved. Depending on the size of the band, they will tell you how many letters will fit. Ours were about $20.00 each for our initials and the date.
