Wow! Seeing stuff like that sometimes makes me glad Mr. Ex and I eloped...we were only out the cost of our marriage license, lol! I wore a simple white dress I already owned, and he wore new jeans, a Western shirt and Ropers that HE already owned. We didn't even buy our rings until five months later. (Wowee, did he give me a nice engagement ring for Christmas that year, though, which I wasn't expecting!) :)

Did he at least buy a nice ladder?

Didn't get an engagement ring; didn't want one. For Christmas, after our 14th anniversary, Sir SuziQ stunned me with a gift of a lovely cushion ruby ring with a small diamond on either side! It's gorgeous, and we call it my "Red Rocks". He chose the ruby and the setting and had it made for me! I like rubies better than diamonds, and it's also my birthstone!

Wasn't able to wear it much except just recently, though, cause I got too fat after child #4 was born! LOL! Well, 17 yrs. later and I'm finally able to wear it again, but usually only for dress up, which isn't very often.
