Which engraving for your wedding ring?
The origins of ring exchanges are located more than 4800 years ago, during ancient Egypt, but the history of the alliances of wedding is blurred.< /a>
It is also believed that the first exchange of wedding rings dates back to Roman Antiquity. At the time, these rings were used to seal the union between two people and they even had the value of a marriage contract.
They were usually made of iron and were sometimes engraved.
This tradition has spanned the ages and, for millennia, marriage has been the institution that unites a couple for life. Symbol of love and above all of the commitment of future spouses, the wedding ring is essential and personal.
The engagement ring was for a long time a solitaire, a unique diamond for a unique love.
Then, on the day of the wedding, the bride and groom exchanged a simple gold ring.
The custom has endured and evolved with this desire for originality. The alliance goes from banal to exceptional. Whether in gold, silver, platinum, with triple rings or traditional bangle, this jewel is, in 100% of cases, serious.
Future spouses are often hesitant about the style of the wedding ring or the engraving. Some are eager to register more than the date of the wedding or the first name of the loved one. We give you here some ideas of original and personal engravings.
- Intermix your two first names outside the wedding ring in a foreign language.
- For a romantic touch, engrave the lyrics or musical notes of “your” song.
- If the words fail you, chisel the symbol of your choice. The infinity symbol in the form of the Moebius knot, a heart or two intertwined hearts.
- For unique alliances, inlay your fingerprints inside or outside your ring.
- German, Arabic, Russian, Japanese, whatever your origin, have a message engraved in your mother tongue or in the language of your couple.
- A Latin quote for the ancient and sacred side “Ad vitam aeternam”.
- You are close to nature, immortalize the roots of your family with a tree, a rare, exotic flower or an animal.
- Engrave a funny message but explicit “Non refundable”, “Already taken”…
