Wedding Bands
Last Sunday, Ryan and I went shopping for wedding bands. I was told to get an early start on this by the lady at Bridal's by Sandra, plus since Ryan wants a Celtic wedding band and I kind of like the way they look too, I figure it doesn't hurt to start looking. So, we went to Donegal Square in Bethlehem to check them out and they are very expensive, then we went to Kay Jewelers to look at the regular bands, we signed up for a credit card while we were there, but we didn't see anything too amazing. Ryan suggested going back to the place we got the engagement ring, James' Diamonds. He did a great job with my ring, plus, I'm pretty sure he does a lot of custom made jewelery, so he might be able to make a replica of a Celtic wedding band for a little cheaper. So, if any one has any ideas for a place we might want to check out, to get a Celtic wedding band, let me know.
This is kind of what I like for me, it's simple, but very pretty:
Ryan likes this one, it's not the exact ring he liked, but it's close:

Yeah, it's a real shame about Donegal Square (this is Ryan, by the way). They have a jewler from Dublin who makes all their jewlery. I'm hoping that James' Diamonds will have some nice ones. Although there were some interesting, more standard, rings at Kay's, so I guess we just have to decide what we want. It probably all comes down to price. The way we see it, we'd rather have the money to spend on a new house than some really extravegant, round piece of metal (...I'm so lucky to have Amanda:). However, if the celtic bands aren't all that much more, it'd be nice to have one. Well, that's all for now folks.
P.S.Arrrrgh, the snow's already starting up here in the Poconos. That's not a good sign for this winter... although I must admit it's pretty.

I sent Manda a list of places by our house a few months back. You two should come by us & go shopping. There were at least two stores listed that had "Irish Wedding Supplies." If you're afraid of getting lost, I'd be happy to take you to the stores, but will wait outside for you. You should be able to do your shopping alone so you can get what you want without worrying about the comments of others. :)

I really like those wedding bands very elegant and original. I haven't seen many couples with those and they are really cool. I wish I knew places where you can go jewelry shopping but I don't know of any... There is always TIFFANY's in NY!!!

I'm not very good at bargining, do you think it's possible to get something affordable without the barginning power?
I remember you telling me that you got your ring in NY (around Christmas time too). I was thinking about maybe taking a trip to see what we could find.
