How long before the wedding did you buy your rings?

Joey, on March 5, 2018 at 08:54 Posted in Plan a wedding 0 28

I want to ask you about your wedding planning timeline - I'm curious to know how long before the wedding you crossed various planning tasks off your to-do list, or when you're planning to have the tasks finished. So play along to have some fun comparing timelines, while sharing your advice with those who are still building their own!

How long before the wedding did you buy your rings? Was it an easy shopping process or a long one?

    My husband had payments put towards our rings 2 months prior to our wedding month. Peoples Jewellers had a special happening at the time to save money.

    I bought his wedding band on Black Friday (about 2 months out), and we just ordered my wedding band a couple weeks ago (1.5 months out)... going to pick it up when we get home from Christmas vacation.

    Probably going to wait until 4 months out to do this. We have an incredible private jeweller who is super fast with this type of stuff.

    We bought mine (it's part of a set, so SUPER easy to pick) in January, so 6 months before the wedding.

    We picked up my FH's band in Feb - so about 4 months out. I just wanted to make sure we had EVERYTHING ready to go, so we've done most stuff fairly early.

    My engagement ring has a matching wedding band, so my FH bought them together. We ordered his ring in February, so 8 months before the wedding.

    My fiancé fell in love with a wooden ring on Etsy about 6 months ago and we ordered it in Nov. My ring on the other hand had been a bit more of a process as my ring didn’t have a matching band. I spent almost a year looking and just yesterday finally found and ordered my band, we get married in Oct but I’m a very ocd bride and have been a head of the average wedding schedule from the beginning. Lol 😆

    We're probably going to wait a couple of months before the wedding.

    We bought ours end of January so that's about three months before the wedding. My engagement ring wasn't part of a set so we went together to pick both our wedding rings out. I actually found that part more stressful than picking the engagement ring.

    We've been engaged for 8 years so my ring is currently out getting upgraded. Because the size of my halo is changing I have to wait for it to be completed to be able to select a wedding band. Hoping to get that done as soon as my ring is back because it's good to budget out. So maybe April, mayish and our wedding is October!

    We just picked up our bands yesterday! We picked them out in January and are getting married in october. I’d say it was a fairly easy process for us!

    My wedding band is on order right now... he's not in any rush to get his as he just wants something really simple.

    We purchased them right away. My band came as a set so we already had that and because the company he purchased my ring fro gave us a bunch of coupons and extra money towards other purchases because of the issues we had with my rings, he purchased it roughly around a month or so after we got engaged.
