Re: Can you lovely ladies help us 08 girls out?

We bought a fakie -because we were really afraid of loosing it- but honestly if it fits pretty good and you are pretty confident that its not going to go anywhere on your vacation then by all means wear the real one- however if you get nervous like i did Id say go for the fakie- its really not that big of a deal and I NEVER bring my engagement ring with me on vacations....

Re: Can you lovely ladies help us 08 girls out?

almost everyone I know wore their real rings. I just wouldnt take them off at any point-whether there was a safe or not, Im paranoid about leaving them somewhere, but taking them with me I wouldnt be so worried. I wear them now all the time, in the pool. to the beach. everywhere.

I would wear your real rings, they are sentimental and I don't see any reason not to wear them on your honeymoon, but everyone does things different. We went to St Lucia and Jamaica and both had our real rings on the entire time other then sleeping and taking a shower. I did buy my husband a really cool second wedding band for him to wear at work only, as he works outside sometimes and we didn't want the real one to get destroyed. There is no right or wrong answer to your question, just do what you feel more comfortable doing. Best of luck

I brought my rings to the honeymoon but any pool or beach day, I left them in the hotel safe. I know some people feel that's too risky, but i didn't want to be w/o my rings on my entire honeymoon.

Re: Can you lovely ladies help us 08 girls out?

totally wore my rings the entire time on my HM--to each their own but i never understood the whole 'i bought a fake set with me' thing.

Re: Can you lovely ladies help us 08 girls out?

DH and I went to Ireland for 16 days for our HM. I wore my engagement ring and wedding band the whole time. I wouldn't get a fake set...just keep it on!!

We were going to Costa Rica and I wasn't sure of what the accomodations were going to be like or if the rooms were going to have safes and I had learned that petty theft is a problem there so I decided to just wear a fake set of rings for my own sanity.

And as an aside, Costa Rica was very safe and our rooms had safes in them as well.

Re: Can you lovely ladies help us 08 girls out?

we brought the real ones, but locked mine up in the safe when we did water stuff.

I suggest getting a fake set & leaving your reals hidden at home... no worries!

I bought a fake ring to wear at the beach/pool. It looked real and I didn't have to stress about losing it or covering it with suntan lotion or anything. I just left my real rings in the safe and wore them out at night.

Wore them the whole time while on our honeymoon in Thailand. No problems at all.

Re: Can you lovely ladies help us 08 girls out?

We mostly were in the pool, so we didn;t have to worry about our rings coming off. One day we did hit the beach, and we decided to leave our rings in the safe in case a giant typhoon of a wave washed them away I think you'll be fine as long as your careful, and make sure your ring is secure. I like the idea about putting your hair band around your ring, that's a good one. HTH

Re: Can you lovely ladies help us 08 girls out?

I didn't buy a fake set BUT I did buy a plain ole white gold wedding band (it was cheap - $150)that I wore for the honeymoon and now I wear it while working out, and doing housework
