Wedding Gift Ideas

I am pretty certain that many women envision their wedding day and the life that follows. For my husband and me, deciding to get married was a mutual decision, and so was the choice to look for engagement rings together. In a departure from the norm, we flew down to Florida for a weekend of ring shopping. The sheer range of engagement rings available was overwhelming, but amidst the plethora of options, we were able to solidify our preferences. We hope this Wedding Gift Ideas post inspires you. 

Ultimately, we selected a striking Tacori engagement ring with a matching band for our wedding day. Although I allowed my husband to choose the ring, I was captivated by the intricate details, particularly the pave diamonds on the engagement ring and the band. Our decision to keep our official engagement a secret until we found the perfect ring made the entire trip feel like a special bond between just the two of us. Our discussions about our dreams, our wedding, and our plans filled the weekend, making it an unforgettable time with my husband.
