Engraving on the two wedding bands my Fiancé got me

Rina, on August 14, 2021 at 9:33 AM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 6
My lovely Fiancé got me two wedding bands before our ceremony, one that is diamond that matches my engagement ring and the other is a gold band to match with his band. We are deciding on the engravings to put on the rings. We had settled on putting our name and a phrase on the gold bands but still going back and forth on the diamond band. He feels like I should put his name on that one too since he feels it's an even more preciouse ring than the gold band. I feel like it's redundant to have his name on my finger twice especially that the gold band is the one I am going to be wearing always. He is starting to get a bit hurt that even though he says that it's going to mean alot to him that I am not convinced. Is that usually what is done? Or is it really like I'm thinking, it's too much and feels extreme?

    No one sees the engravings but you guys. Also, I don't know how common engravings on weddings bands are in general. I don't know anyone who got anything engraved on their wedding bands. It's really personal preference. There isn't a right or wrong way here.

    I agree with PP. this is really all up to you guys, there is no right or wrong way and nothing to tell you bands need to be engraved or not.

    Engraving is a “just for you guys” type thing— you’re the only ones who ever see it and know it’s there, so don’t overthink it being overkill. To me, this is something that doesn’t matter at all, but it is clear it matters a lot to him, so I’d do it just for him. It’s an easy thing to give him, doesn’t have any negative effect on you and means a lot to him. It’s not pointless if it makes him happy.

    It’s personal preference. In my engagement ring my FH had something engraved and my wedding band will have the date. His wedding bands doesn’t have any engraving right now because he’s still deciding on sizing. We eventually want to put the date in his too.
