I despise the ceremony of weddings and don't particularly care for marriage, but I have been engaged a few times, mostly due to my previous partners and I battling for visas and such. My current partner and I have been together over ten years now and several years ago - for important legal reasons at the time - took a couple of witnesses to an office to register married, but still went ahead and got rings. The originals didn't fit for a while as my partner's weight changed and I badly injured my finger, so we got fun temporary replacements when Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson was still UK Prime Minister. On one healthcare visit, the worker noticed the ring with "Fuck the Tories" engraved and loved it, asking where she and her partner could get them (FYI: Topple and Burn). "The only problem," she added, "is that after the next election we'll need ones that say 'Fuck Labour.'"
