A few years ago I got a ‘promise ring’ from my boyfriend, it is very simple with small diamonds in it. I love it, but there are hundreds of rings out there just like it.

We have been discussing marriage and looking at rings lately, and I have come to decide that I dont really want a diamond engagement ring!
We have decided on the ring (mostly), I got to help with some of the major decisions, and now he is tweaking it to make it a special and unique ring. We are having the engagement ring and wedding bands both custom made by a wonderful jeweler. We have chosen a gemstone (tourmaline) that has significant meaning to both of us, and the particular stone we have on hold is beautiful!
I know the ring doesnt make the marriage, nor does the stone. But does anyone else have a non traditional ring? What do people have to say about it? Are you always explaining the ring?
