I purchased our rings and brought them over with me. It was my little contribution since I won't be working until after we're married in September.
We looked at rings on a previous visit and I was shocked 1) at the prices and 2) the quality.
Most of the rings were 9k gold and outrageous compared to what I was used to paying in the States.
Check out
www.bidz.com . That's where I got both of our rings. 18k white gold. Total paid $227 including shipping.
Btw, we plan on going on the cheap as well. Registrar's office for the ceremony with only close family attending and the reception will be a BBQ in the back garden. Hard to break my Texan habits after all.
Just realized that my post is completely off topic.. So adding that-- we plan on getting our "married photos" taken at the Dundee Botanic Garden a week or two after the ceremony. I think they will be nicer than photos taken inside a Registrar's Office. Plus, it's where his Mum got her wedding photos taken as well.
