Enjoy yourselves.  One can't take the money with us  ;)  .......... I usually buy my jewellry at auction or in antique fairs these days.  My 1st engagement ring was £35.00, my wedding ring a little more ........ then I had to buy a 2nd wedding ring when the 1st got a fracture in it  ::) which cost £80.00 - then those 2 were melted together ....... then I lost the 1st engagement ring so DH bought me a 2nd, £65.00 from a dealer - 4 days later I found the 1st  ::)  ;D - and 3 weeks ago I saw another engagement ring that I liked so we paid £100.00 to another dealer.  Oh the sparkle - which I hope you will both have on your Special Days  :cake:

On hi-days and holidays.  The wedding ring, which is a mix of the 2, every day.  The 1st engagement ring goes onto my finger, then the wedding ring, plus the '2nd' engagement ring; the 3rd engagement ring I wear on the right ring finger.  I also have several other rings in opals, gold, Blue John  ::)

CLKD's story of rings reminded me of mine - although it is not the same as CLKD's.

I had engagement ring we could afford at 19.   At 21 I got the engagement ring I had seen at 19 but could not afford.  When my daughter was born I went out and left it in a toilet in a restaurant while I changed her. 

I claimed insurance and got another one made the same (it was rather unusual and I had a photograph).

I lost that one too when doing major DIY in the house (may have gone under floorboards).

I decided to buy a different style of ring and nothing happened to that one although my husband and I separated/divorced and so I did not wear it.  I gave it to my daughter on her 21st birthday.

She used 4 of the diamonds in it to form part of her engagement ring a couple of years ago.   And she has kept the other three to use for her wedding ring design  :)

Just an update, im getting a different dress!! The one ive already got is plain and simple and chosen cos it was only £50 in the sale but its not the one I would of chose if money wasnt a problem.  Mum has now offered to buy me one but dont think she realised just how expensive they are! Ive found one that is so amazing, over a grand :-/ but cos its only a few wks away I would have to hav it off the peg so shop is having it dry cleaned and knocked 20% off :-).  What a performance, nothing ever straight forward, but shop can hav it shortened so that sorts that issue out, flowers already got - dry ones that was chosen with other dress in mind but will hav to do fir this dress also. Its a lot of money for just a church service so asked hubby to b if we could hav a reception after all so I can wear my beautuful dress, hes not keen however as we both hav anxiety issues  and although I would be ok being centre of attention for an evening do, my oh wouldnt. I cant help feeling disappointed but know I have to consider his feelings and the fact that he wouldnt push me into doing something I wasnt comfirtable doing so I dint hav the right to do it to him.

Get loads of photos taken in your gorgeous dress. Don't have to be by expensive photographer. We married nearly 36 years ago and only had family taking pictures, which were much more relaxed.
Would your future hubby be comfortable with just close friends and family for a posh meal? That's all we did and it was perfect, neither of us wanted a fuss.
