Nice ring. I'd consider a similar option, but I'm too clumsy. Afraid of the broken finger and swelling thing...

I respect that. Good on you for thinking differently about a wedding ring.

Well, it's basically a normal wedding ring, only it has a cut in the middle of it... hence why it is called 'groove'.

I'll take lots of pics, and I'm sure you guys will see some of them. Thanks for the good wishes though.

I like the satin finish a lot. I have sort of a matte finish on mine, but that pic makes me think maybe I chose wrong. Decisions decisions.

Well, the pic is a polished finish... I like satin best. Polished is a bit to 'bling' for me.

BTW, you can always get your ring refinished... just take it to a jeweler.

Nice, different too.

Am thinking about getting a titanium one, same as my platinum wedding ring, to wear at work - don't want to scratch it all to hell. Good prices on that site, shame the offers end tomorrow...

Best thing about titanium: WEIGHT. As in, it's damn light. My ring is the Stealth, from http://www.titaniumcommitment.com/offtherack.html.

I hardly know I have the thing on if'n I ain't lookin' right at it.

Very nice - simple, and great in satin. I hope the wedding goes well!

One I like is that Samurai one on the same page as Stealth:

Rings are beautiful.

This is the first time I've participated in a thread started by Ca$h/Rob, so let me say congratulations! I hope the wedding goes well.

As for other information... do we get to see pictures from either the bachelor party, wedding itself, or the reception? And if so... can they be slightly incriminating?

Careful with the Titanium...you might get bad Airport reception and it tends to overheat a lot.

*five minutes later*

OH! Congrats man, nice ring

someone had to...

...though I'm surprised no one went for "wasn't it between your cheeks, where you left it?" Or similar.

(No offence Ca$h, all best for the big day )

That looks like a new set of rims pal! Perfect for a Ford Mustang.

How much does that thing weight? Looks heavy.

Anyway, congrats on the enguagement... and good luck!
