Our weekend labors

Having several days off from our full-time jobs, we put full-time effort into a wedding prep marathon.

Highlights include mailing our wedding license





and buying a ring for Yancy.





It felt weird -- a good kind of weird -- to be shopping for him.

  1. What do you think of the concept of having the guy wear a ring during the engagement as well? I like it (it implies that both halves should be behaving -- and be treated -- as if they're "spoken for"), but I'm not sure I'm enough of a trailblazer to go for it.

    I like the simplicity of your rings.

  2. I'd never thought about it until I was watching him wear it at the store. My roommates chides me that it's bad luck to let him wear it, but I like it. It makes the engagement feel more mutual than it does now -- I feel less purchased* when he's sporting some bling too.

    Maybe I'll compromise and get him a RingPop to wear for the next couple months.

    But, a pro for not letting him wear it, it's a little uncomfortable when we holds hands.



    *Yancy never does anything to make me feel like I've been purchased.

  3. Isn't it weird to be in that position- buying someone their wedding ring? You have cute pictures, I wish Scott and I had taken more. Good job!
