Did you pick your ring or were you completely surprised?

Hey brides! Did you go ring shopping with your fiancé or did they go and pick it out the ring on their own? My fiancé picked out a ring for the proposal and then we went ring shopping together for my engagement ring.

    Your ring is beautiful!

    I wanted to pick out my ring. My fiance and I went to a jeweler together to get an idea of what I liked on my hand, then picked out a beautiful one online that had everything I was looking for.

    I love your ring!


    I was completely surprised! From the moment we started talking about marriage I knew I was going to get his grandma's ring, I fell in love with the idea of wearing such a special ring. When he proposed though he had purchased a whole new ring and kept it a surprise with the help of my mom and sister. I was completely shocked when I saw my ring the day he proposed.

    I didn’t go ring shopping with my fiancé but I did show him exactly what I wanted. He did stray from what it was that I wanted but I like it better than the pictures I showed him!! Did you pick your ring or were you completely surprised? 1

    I sent him a TON of pictures of halo rings - I wasn’t very subtle 😂 I like the simplicity of them! He had it custom made, with the first diamond his dad gave his mom. His dad was killed in December of 2015, so my ring is absolutely priceless! A piece of his dad I get to have with me forever 💛Did you pick your ring or were you completely surprised? 2

    We got engaged in the Grand Tetons. My fiance made my ring out of a pink wild geranium. When we got home we went shopping for a sturdier proxy for daily use. I wanted something that resembled my original ring.Did you pick your ring or were you completely surprised? 3

    My fiancé custom designed my ring with a local jewelry store where we live! I had no idea - I never even told him what I’d like! He just knew opals are my favorite. We’re going to go back to that store together to design our wedding bands!

    I REALLY don't like my ring so I understand (He proposed Christmas 2017 and I still havent grown to love or even like it). We had discussed rings and were suppose to go shopping together but he decided otherwise. All I can suggest is telling him that it's not really your style and see if he'd be willing to replace it. Be gentle because it might hurt his feelings or make him upset. However, I told my FH several times in different ways that although its "pretty", I would prefer something I like. He got super defensive and emotional. Long story short, I stopped talking about it and am now stuck with a ring I hate looking at (hoping for an "upgrade" in a couple years). Good luck!

    Neither my husband or I knew what ring sizes we were, so we went in together to get fitted! Then things lead to the next thing and basically...

    I chose my own ring and I wouldn’t have done it any other way 😋

    Your reaction is priceless!! My fiancé only told my dad. So everyone else, including his parents and my mom, were completely surprised.
