Wedding ring engraved memory of Prince... Weird?

I'm getting married this year. If it wasn't for that this would be one suck year losing Prince. I mean our wedding anniversary year will also be the anniversary of Princes death. sad
I was thinking about having the inside of my wedding band engraved with Forever in my Life 4/21/16 & our wedding date 10/7/16. Forever in my Life is one of my fav songs & makes me think of my fiancé & Prince. I don't know... Is this weird or cool? It's the closest I'll ever come to a tattoo lol.
Oh & fiancé was cool with it at least.

Are you marrying Prince? If not, I'd just stick to keeping it related to your marriage. Otherwise you'll regret it later. Just that you're asking, you already know it's weird. You won't get that from folks around here though. They'll encourage you and ask that you post a photo after it's made.

Save Prince for the first dance or something. That's tribute enough. And he would tell you the same thing. It's bad enough you're going to torture her for the rest of her life with the constant playing of his music wink

It will only be known to me that it's there since its on the inside. I don't feel like I would regret it cuz I've been a fan for 35 yrs. Maybe Just Forever in my Life & our date though.
It does make me a little said putting his death date.

I'd skip the death anniversary date, unless you literally proposed to her then.

Forever in my Life fits on a wedding ring & will have the Prince significance for you as an in reference for the both of you.

You could substitute Forever with the eternity sign if you want. (sideways 8)

When I got married I picked my favorite color, purple. Purple was sort of our "theme". We didn't really have a theme per se, but all of the decorations and such got tied in to the purple dresses and stuff. This was my way of me personally honoring my love for Prince. I didn't pick purple just for that reason but I also don't know if purple would be my favorite color without him.

A marriage of THREE has always been proven to fail.

.

You can't start a marriage with someone in between you.

.

Prince is a part of your music life and not your personal life.

.

I certainly wouldn't be happy if I was your partner.

You miss understand it's not like all that lol. I don't think of him every day or listen to him every day but he has been all through my life a part of it. Like a soundtrack. I've never thought of him in a personal way. I don't live & breath him. He's just been on my mind lately. It's sad. A great loss. My fiancé is my life. When I hear beautiful Prince songs I think of him. smile

I think that way is better. You are remembering Prince by using the Forever in my Life title, but applying to your marriage.

Perhaps leave the 4/21/16 off and do "Forever In My Life 10/7/16"
