I had friends that did the same thing--they did it during the exchange of the rings at the wedding. There wasn't a dry eye in the house!
I think it's a great idea to do it at the wedding. It's very sweet of him to want to make his commitment in front of everyone.
I think this is something you should let him decide. If he really wants to do it at the wedding then let him give the gift on his own terms.
That may be his way of bringing her into the symbolism of your marriage and family. I think it's really sweet of him to do it then. How old was she? I know a lot of kids in remarriages enjoy being a PART of it, it's not just a mom and "howard" thing. It's a family thing.
My vote is for letting Howard decide first and then if he wants it during the wedding, than I think it's perfect.
It seems like it's really important to him, so I think you should let him make the gesture as he wishes. I think it will be a very meaningful part of your ceremony. :)
KLP2010, she is 15. I included a picture of the ring. It so cute and very similar to mine, which I thought was extra special!
That ring is gorgeous. You are lucky girls he sounds like such a nice man :) It sounds like doing it at the wedding is important to him, but I would just ask and see what he thinks of your engagement party idea.
Yes, Wifeywife, he is one in a million and we love him to no ends! He tells us often that he is so blessed that we are in his life and he tells us EVERYDAY that he loves us. Howard and I have know each other all of or lives. We went to school together and as kids lived less than 10 minutes away from each other. We never said so much as hello as teenagers.... now marriage! I am still shocked that he is going to be my husband one day!

Hey guys,
I've been away for a while. I had two minor surgeries one was a tubal ligation and the other one was cosmetic. After I had my surgeries, I thought I was going to just stay in bed and talk to you guys from time to time but that didn't happen because I decided third day after surgery, Howard had gone back to work and I really wanted some cheese cake.... well to make a long story short, I left home and somehow I caught this crazy cold and I'm still sick today! I am so tired of coughing, my throat is sore and.... I can go on and on, but I won't! Getting to the reason for my posting:
Howard decided before we got engaged that he was going to give my daughter a promise ring at the wedding. I wanted him to give it to her when he gave me my engagement ring, but he was set on doing it during our wedding. I was just lying here thinking that we are having an engagement party, wouldn't that be a better time to do it than to wait until the wedding? I really wished that he had already given it to her, but I'm trying to let him present his gift to her the way that he wants to do it. What do you guys think?
