Wedding Bands....

Options
So, since my fiance just HAD to go off to war....:explode:

I've been left with the wedding bands to be engraved.....:indifferent:
My issue is I can't think of an appropriate, VERY short quote.... :ohwell:
His band is a lot thicker then mine, we want the same quote inscribed.....mine is only 2mm wide.

Some know the whole, drama story involved with my fiance/wedding. Short version....we've had to fight to even be able to GET married.

Any thoughts, quotes, etc that would be awesome for wedding rings??? :sad:

    My hubby and I have two wedding bands. Cop and firefighter. We don't want to ruin the nice bands, but we want to wear bands at work. I can see it now , "Okay guys, the ring is getting bent, time to get out of the fire..." Or dh saying "Mr bad guy, this is a nice wedding band. Let me take it off before we wrestle..." Just kidding. Both bands have a portion of our vows

    "For always, forever" nice bands.

    "I promise I do" work bands.

    Ohhhh I like those.....
    We don't have specific wedding vows yet....
    His is a titanium ring, so it should hold up well in his work....mine is just a plain old white gold band.....no frills.

    I personally like these....

    "To keep your marriage brimming,
    With love in the wedding cup,
    Whenever you're wrong, admit it;
    Whenever you're right, shut up."
    - Ogden Nash

    "When you meet someone who can cook and do housework--don't hesitate a minute--marry him."
    - Unknown

    A bit long though....

    "The real act of marriage takes place in the heart, not in the ballroom or church or synagogue. It's a choice you make / not just on your wedding day, but over and over again / and that choice is reflected in the way you treat your husband or wife."

    Barbara De Angelis

    Just a dang good quote!

    My wedding band is engraved with "To Bonnie with love" with the date we married.
    his says "To John with love" and the date.

    mmm.....we're on the same page!

    I have a 2mm band. and a honkin' three stone engagement ring (QVC is a blessing...lol)

    I was looking at getting a more physical job and the band I loved was inscribed on the inside with "My beloved is mine". very pretty.

    How about 'love conquers all' as a reference to how your love has overcome all those little fights. Also doesn't hurt that he's a soldier! :laugh:

    Simple is good....small amounts of space.

    See if you can find either chinese or japanese charaters that mean what you want, but that only need to be one or two symbols. That way, you save room and you have a special meaning.

    我愛你永遠

    That means "I love you forever"

    Oh, I thought of this. Most of my tattoos are in kanji.....
    So, this is not far from my mind, I also have a guy who is so cool about translating.
