In Marriage and After: Engraved Rings

by on 2009/09/26

There a few pieces of jewelry that men and women can both wear. Men have their watches, and women have their necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and so on. It is difficult to go shopping for matching, meaningful jewelry sometimes when a style cannot be decided on. It is a travesty, because there can be great symbolism in jewelry. And when a man and a woman can share a piece of jewelry, it can hold great meaning. And yet, sometimes we forget that one of the most important pieces of jewelry men and women exchange is on their wedding day. Both the bride and groom take the leap and put on a wedding band to symbolize their union. These little pieces of jewelry, though small and sometimes quite simple, can have such significance. The simplicity of the ring and the ritual of both wearing the ring brings a common ground between the husband and wife. Rings are able to look good on both sexes, making them very popular choices for various gift occasions. But a person may wonder, after the wedding, should there ever be an exchange of rings again? Wouldn’t that undermine the special moments at the wedding and the wedding bands? When actually, exchanging rings again after marriage can be like exchanging loving vows all over again. Personalized rings can make the exchange all the more blessed and meaningful. This is a very powerful gift.

Rings, symbolizing unity and a touch of eternity, can fit in any occasion. They can be altered and crafted to have writing on them for anniversaries. Rings are also perfect gifts for those romantic days like Valentine’s Day, or the personal days like birthdays.  That is the beauty with rings. They are appropriate for any occasion. And the ability to make them more meaningful by adding your own touch to them, whether it is a name or a date or a message carved into them, rings that are personalized are even more special. When a couple exchanges engraved wedding bands, they know they are presenting special gifts to one another that are one of a kind. And so, with jewelry, rings especially, memories can be made, and remade.

You never know how much power engraved rings may have. Rings can be worn day in and day out, and last all through your life. In this way, rings are magical.
