To Engrave....or not

I , personally do want one...or two!
did not get the chance to do it on my E-ring
I do hope I could execute this for our wedding ring



did some research on ideas of the engraved notes

snip bit from here

1. Your Names and Wedding Date

For brides and grooms who prefer a classic approach, this engraving never goes out of fashion. There should be room for at least your first names, but you can use initials if space is tight. It might not matter to you now, but engraved names and dates can help someone who tackles family research in the future.

2. Forever

Forever.. a simple word with an important meaning. Wrap your intent to stay together always (there's another top engraving) around your finger, where you'll be reminded of it every day. You can include your initials and wedding date if you like.

3. Amor Vincit Omnia

Latin for "love conquers all." Engrave a message in Latin and few people will understand it, making the sentiment more personal to you and your spouse.

4. Phrase from a Song

Anything from "All you need is love," to "I got you, babe." What lyrics are meaningful to you? Are they short enough to engrave inside a wedding ring?

5. Nicknames

Brides and grooms sometimes engrave each other's nicknames inside their wedding rings.

6. A Religious Phrase

Choose a portion of a phrase or verse that's significant to your religion.

7. Symbols

A heart, the peace symbol, the symbol for eternity--many hand engravers can add a symbol to the inside of your wedding bands.

8. A Special Phrase

Choose a personal phrase, one that only you and your future spouse understand the meaning of. Go ahead, inscribe the phrase in your rings, let everyone guess its true meaning. And there's no reason why the phrases must match--each of you can choose a special sentiment.

9. Phrase from Your Wedding Vows

Engrave a few short words from your wedding vows. The phrase you choose might signify love, respect, trust, eternity--anything you want to convey to each other. Some couples let their sentiments float around the exterior of wedding bands. Adorn the outside of plain bands with a special engraving.

10. Poetry and Literature

Words from any special poem or book, sentimental to comical.You're off to a good start. Now, before you choose an engraver, make a few decisions to help make sure that your engravings last forever.

 

 

Here are some nice examples of Idea No. 3....
