Re: 500 Wedding Rings book

I forgot to add in my review one example of the not a Wedding Ring that really struck me:

The ring that consisted of a reverse telephone number, pierced out of sheet, so the wearer could use a stamping pad and stamp his/her phone number on Interested Parties.

HOW is this a "wedding ring"????

(One person I mentioned this to said, "Swingers!"

But I still feel it is not exactly aligned with the theme. Somehow.)

That sounds like a groomsman's ring.

That was my thought, too. And the best man at my wedding did in fact marry the bartender from the reception that he was hitting on all night. Still, kinda counter-to-theme, generally speaking.

I've had the same phone number for 24 years - but it isn't the number we had when we first married. Somehow I doubt that is unusual.

Still, I like the idea of a ring-as-stamp. I think we should experiment with that!
