The ring :))

Assalamu Alaykum

Yep, we bought the ring :))) well actually we bought two rings :))) yep, two rings :))))

They are so beautiful.

We were going to BigW to buy a bandage for my wrist and a thermos flask for The fiance... But we stumbled upon a jewelery store and as usual we had to stop and have a little quarrel comparing rings. I just wanted a little wedding ring with diamonds and he wanted a big one with a big rock. He just didnt understand that in my culture, u need a WEDDING ring and that no matter how big and fancy a ring was, if it wasnt a wedding ring - its not a wedding ring. And in the middle of our quarrel we found a set, it had a wedding ring similar to what I was after and a nice engagement ring which was all that he wanted. And yes, it was a little too big for my liking, but once I tried it, I really liked it. Only problem was, it was 9 carat gold, and I really don't like the dullness of nine carat gold. And just as I was saying this, (I was going to settle for it anyway) the sales lady pulled out this beautiful engagement ring that was very similar to that one but in 18 ct gold, AND (wait for it) MY WEDDING RING to go with it. Yes, that ring that I fell in love with all those months ago.

It doesn't need to be said, but I was in love. So we got these two gorgeous rings for the price I was prepared to pay for one of them. The engagement ring was highly discounted (70% off) and she gave me the ring I wanted for half price also. So yaaaay!!! I'm so happy.

Alhamdulillah.

And I love Mhd just that little bit more now. I cant wait for the wedding. Inshallah we won't have to wait too long.

But now that the fiance went home, and everyone else went to the park, its time to do a little spring cleaning (in Autumn). I am planning to clean and rearrange my room today so I can study in peace tomorrow Inshallah.

Looking for the Ring

Assalamu Alaykum


I think its time to buy "the ring". We've been looking for quite a while.. I found a few that I liked, but by the time I get back home, call the fiancĂ©,  and get back out to the shop again - it's either sold or the sale's over and its well and truly over the budget. And I'm really picky when it comes to jewellery so that doesn't make it any easier. I've had my eye on a couple of rings. We went to the shops yesterday to pick one out and at least put it on layby but unfortunately we found out that 3 of those are sold out. And even though I was given the option of ordering them in, the cost was blown up way out of what we are prepared to pay. So now there is only one. It's a little bit pricey but hey, you only get married once, Inshallah.


I think this is the one, but I would love to have it engraved on the inside


And I wish I could have this one to go along with it.. so sparkly... a girl can dream


So I think we will get that one. It is so beautiful. To be honest its the one I preferred all along but its also the most expensive. Inshallah we will be able to get it on the weekend.


That's all for now.. Salams
