Flawed Destination Wedding Dresses

It turns out that the flaw in the metal of my ring is a freaking hole, I can see diamond shining through it.  I was going to tell Mr. Incredible about it last night but I got the mother of all migraines and not even two doses of my prescription migraine meds could tame the beast enough for me to have a conversation.  Even if I loved the ring I would want to take it back because there should not be a freaking hole in something that cost several thousand dollars!  Truth is that I like the ring but I would like it better if the two bands were one ring and then there was a separate wedding band because the engagement ring alone looks dumb and once the two rings are welded together it will look like it is one ring and that there is no wedding band.  So it will just look like I am perpetually engaged and not actually married…when that day comes.

Speaking of that day, it may come sooner than I want.  Our friends have offered us an all-inclusive trip to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic.  At THIS RESORT. The resort does complimentary weddings!  Only down side is that the trip HAS to be taken this year and that really seems like rushing it especially because we would want to have a reception for family once we get back and that will cost $$ we don’t really have to blow.

And is it wrong that I’m already browsing for wedding dresses?  I’m not looking for anything expensive, I’m not willing to spend much but would still like to look pretty.  This ONE caught my eye.

You know you COULD do a trip in the later fall (November-ish?) and then do a reception next spring/summer when the weather is nice. It’s a thought anyway. A reception wouldn’t have to be right away afterwards.

Can’t wait to see what you pick!! :)

I agree, the reception doesn’t have to be right away. Just send out announcements that you are getting married on such and such a day, and that you will be sending out invites to a reception in the spring. Or after the “hectic holiday season is over” or something to that effect.

I’m glad you are taking the ring back, if you don’t love it, you shouldn’t have to look at it every day for the rest of your life. Especially if you wanted to have matching wedding bands and that is a totally valid reason for wanting to return it, even if the ring didn’t have a flaw.

New ring pics???

I’m glad it all worked out!

The Mr. and I have yet to have a reception. I think we are going to FINALLY get that done on our 5th anniversary (next July).
