OK LADIES.... I got a good one for you this time. I am getting married in approx. four months and we just got our wedding bands. We got him a Tungsten band ( strongest metal and scratch resistant ) cause he works in the steel industry. So since it is scratch resistant .. it can NOT be engraved.. at leat not the typical engraving. It has to be LASER engraved. I desperately want it to be engraved cause it a simple ring and it would make it more special to him and I. My ring is engraved with "MY ONE TRUE LOVE" (something he has said to me for years now) .. and I want his to say from me "MY ONLY EVER" cause that my responce when he tells me that .. it a cute thing we do. It can not be done ANY where I have called here in Michigan. I dont care where it can get done at OR how much it cost I just really want to have it done.
I have checked online and it a dead end all over.. is there any place near any of you that does this??
Pleaase let me know if you have any thoughts ideas or solutions
THANK YOU

Several of the laser engraving places are focusing on wood, acrylic, glass, larger pieces of metal, and promotional materials. Several of the other places offer laser engraving on jewelry and rings, but only on items that you purchase from them.
Here's one that focuses first on custom laser engraving of jewelry, they don't sell jewelry--they can even laser engrave your wedding rings with your vows or in your own handwriting :) :

They have a laser engraver at the mall a few towns over from here. Maybe there is one set up at a kiosk in a mall by you. They use a desktop laser and all they do is rings at the one near me. Try your local malls first, but keep on eye on your ring, sometimes these kiosk operators are there one day and long gone the next. Happiness in your marriage always!:D

that is funny Lynne.. lol
and Chelle.. that Kiosh does do laser engraving BUT they can't do the inside of a ring =) it also is Tungsten which is something you have to be careful with cause if you go too deep it will shatter.. it has pressure point for that reason of if a person wearing it has their fingers smashed they can shatter ring and get it off rather then lose a finger BUT yet it is scratch resistant .. it made for people like JAY lol lol
but thank you for the advice .... I am still waiting to hear back from the sites that were listed .. I wrote most of them asking them to help and now it justa wait and see for now

Laserengravingexpress is located in LA's California Jewelry Mart in the Diamond District, so their time zone is Pacific--so, if you're east or central or mountain, there will be at least a one to three hour delay before they're open.

Yup! I asked specifically about tungsten wedding band, too. If for some reason their reply doesn't show up in e-mail, the man I spoke with said you can print off the form from their website, which gives you all of the details on pricing and choices, fill it out and send it in with the ring. I went ahead and cut and pasted the form into my previous post so you could see it. They have a toll free number, too, if you want to talk to them yourself--1-800-6LAS-BEST (like their humble number!)
Happy wedding! :)
