here's H's. He lost this ring on our honeymoon 10mo later and the supposed exact replacement has worn so that it all looks like polished, instead of part brushed, part polished.

My engagement ring - DH took his grandmother's diamond and designed the band himself. He wanted it to sit high, so it would be "really sparkly."
For our wedding bands, I didn't want to do the whole band with my engagement ring thing. I really wanted a matching band to DH to symbolize the whole aspect of the marriage being about the two of us. DH wanted something to represent his Celtic heritage and I stuck with the Jewish tradition of no holes - just an unbroken circle.
I wear my wedding band on my left and my engagement ring on my right.
My engagement ring is an emerald with diamond side stones. I didn't want the same style as all of our friends were getting, so DH went with an emerald for my Irish heritage, and I LOVE it. Wedding band is a vintage almost eternity band with diamonds.
DH keeps hinting that he wants to get me a diamond three stone set for our 10th anniversary this year...but I can't imagine anything other than my set.
Everyone's rings are so GORGEOUS!! Mine are pretty plain so I'll do a double AW, you can sort of see my rings in this picture but I wore my great grandma's locket that her, my grandma, mom, each aunt, and female first cousin all wore on our wedding days. My grandma was too far gone with dementia by my wedding to come so grandpa gave it to me and told me to be the new person to hold onto and lend to the future females in my family that want to wear it. Needless to say, I cried a lot when he told me that.

The ring on the top is the engagement ring my DH gave me. I now wear this on my right hand. The set in the middle is my wedding set. I inherited the set from my maternal grandmother. It is about 60 years old, and it is so beautiful. The ring on the bottom is my husbands band.

Well, since I can only wear half my set at the moment I pulled a ring picture from our wedding. Typically the band is nested into the engagement ring rather than upside down. I had to talk DH into something smaller with less rise since I always seem to catch rings on things around the horses and I didn't want to losing any stones or messing it up like I have others.

Holy wow, everyone has some serious rings around here! DH inherited his from his grandma, and I just have one round diamond, gold settings. Very simple! Maybe some day we'll get better jobs and I'll get a fun fancy ring
