I always thought a high-quality replica of one of the movie-versions of LotR's elvish rings would make a cool engagement ring. I don't know if it would really be appropriate since I'm not really familiar with modern marriage traditions, but hey...I'm allowed my geeky fantasies, right? ;)



The key is finding a girl who also doesn't care about modern marriage traditions and shares your quirkiness! :)  Then you can use any LOTR ring you want and she'll love it!

We didn't wear anything fantasy or medieval at our wedding, but to give you some perspective on who I'm married to, the middle tier of our wedding cake had the One Ring inscription go around the whole thing, and our daughter's name is Eowyn.

And 2, 2 rings to Ian and his wife... Who above all else desired Cake.

Depending on the girl, you never know. I've heard of couples using the LOTR "one ring" as their wedding bands. ;)

This is true.
Though easier said than done. ;)

It would seem that the search for, not the grail, but instead the maiden! The damsel! Call it another crusade if you must!
