Peter proposed to Vedana (Nani) on July 11, 2015 in Niagara Falls NY. Niagara Falls holds a special place in both our hearts. Nani grew up 20 miles from Niagara Falls and spent a lot of time there over the years while Peter has loved it since he first visited the Falls with his family. Peter and Nani went to the Falls so Peter could see the lights on the Falls for the first time. Peter had brought his grandmother's wedding ring with him to Buffalo after getting the ring from his family. The ring was a diamond solitaire.
Peter and Nani went to Goat Island and Peter got down on his knee and proposed. He slid the ring on Nani's ring finger, but we found the ring was too small for it. Nani wears the ring on a chain since the proposal and we bought another ring for her to wear that fits her ring finger. That ring is a sapphire with white gold.
We celebrated our engagement with Peter's brother William as soon as we returned back to his home in East Amherst NY that he shares with his wife Klansee. It was a night filled with love and memories.
Beautiful rings, Vedana! My husband gave me a lovely sapphire and diamond ring as a wedding gift. Very beautiful, and in the Turkish culture, evokes the symbol of the evil eye to ward off bad luck. :-) So your ring will also bring you good luck by keeping away the bad.
