29 YEARS AND A NEW RING…
Happy Anniversary to us!
I’ll never forget 29 years ago when I got a new ring and married my best friend and love of my life!
I knew it was a big decision and I wanted to make the right one.
After much fasting and prayer, I received divine confirmation that he was indeed the one for me.
It was a very special experience and one that I will never forget.
I made the decision to be in for the long haul and so did he.
My wedding ring
If you know Rick, you will understand when I say he wanted to save money on a wedding ring.
So he bought my ring from a woman who’s marriage had gone bad and was selling her ring online.
I didn’t care at all that he wasn’t spending a fortune for a new one!
It was pretty and I knew that with the money that we saved on the ring, we could buy our first TV!!!
It’s kind of a funny story, but I love it and I loved my beautiful ring.
A few years later, the diamond fell out and I was SO THANKFUL that he hadn’t spent a fortune on it!!
Ever since that time, I’ve never been one who cared to have a real diamond.
Whoever decided that you have to spend a fortune on a symbol of love anyway?
In my mind, the LOVE is more important than what’s on my finger.
Enter Modern Gents
If you are like me and think that wedding rings are way overpriced, may I introduce you to Modern Gents?
Their mission is to design and manufacture high quality, hand-crafted rings made from non-traditional and conflict-free materials that are not only stunning but extremely affordable.
Who do YOU know that’s getting married?
This is the PERFECT solution for anyone who:
- is getting married and needs a new ring
- has lost their previous wedding ring
- doesn’t want to spend an outrageous amount on a new ring that might get lost
- would rather spend money on a NEW TV like we did!! 😉
But what makes these rings EVEN BETTER is that they are backed by a 100% satisfaction guarantee and a LIFETIME warranty!
They sport the most beautiful, eye-catching, man-made stones that shine like crazy!
Nobody will know that they aren’t the real thing!
Mine is called The Queen and I could not love it more.
And if you needed one more reason to support this awesome company, I LOVE that they offer special discounts for military, first responders, and medical professionals!
So maybe my son can pop the question to his darling girlfriend with a stunning new ring from Modern Gents!!!
29 years later…
My Ricky is still the love of my life!
And although we have our ups and downs just like any other couple, it’s still the best decision I’ve made!
And just to make my teenage daughter cringe, we had to do the “grab my hand and pretend like you are taking a picture of me” shot – HA!

Oh, Cammi. That’s my thought on the matter too. Same with expensive weddings. It’s not the day or the ring that makes for a great marriage…it’s all those years and experiences that happen afterwards.
I loved reading this (and we used a diamond from my grandpa’s ring for mine!!)
