I don't know of any woman who wouldn't want both rings. However, you might want to draw up a pre-nup, if you guys do divorce, the family ring stays with you and not her. But you can give her both rings if you'd like to. Good luck!

my husband had the same problem what you do is say hunny will you marry me then hold up both engagment rings you tell her pick which ones and she will pick the one she likes thats what i did. grats
I would save one for an anniversary present. You’ll have to decide which one to give to her as the engagement ring though as that will be or slightly more importance.
Edit:
in response to jettalady’s answer – that’s not a bad idea and it’s great it worked out for her, but I personally would be terrified to make that decision. Whichever I chose, I would no doubt regret, and I might feel pressure to choose one way or another (is it rude not to pick the heirloom ring? does it make me appear selfish? is it wasteful to not pick the new ring he bought just for me? can I have both? is that greedy?) you know what I’m saying?
I originally hinted to my husband to get me a white gold ring (because I liked silver better than gold) and then I changed my mind and wasn’t sure what I wanted. I told him to choose which to get me and I was so stressed not knowing what he would pick (he picked gold and I was glad that he didn’t listen to me for once). But I imagine if he told me to choose, I would have chosen white gold … and regretted it. but maybe I’m just weird!
Just give her the one you made. My husband made my ring himself using sheets of silver & a diamond he bought. I loved it. The setting wasn’t secure enough so we had to get a different ring which made me so sad. I would much prefer something that comes from the heart & that was thought through.
Give her the one you had made. In the end it will mean so much more to her then just any ole ring.
why dont you use the one you made as the engagement ring and then use the heirloom one for the wedding ring?
The one that’s been handed down has so much more meaning … why is there even a choice?
The other one can be reserved for an anniversary or on the birth of your first baby.
I’d go with the family heiroom, hands down. Your family is expecting that as well, and if you don’t give her that one, you’ll have to explain. Don’t take her ring shopping anymore. Just tell her that you’ve made up your mind, but don’t tell her anything more than that. Let the anticipation build.
:D
thats weird to give her 2.
that is so romantic that you made a ring for her!
if she doesnt like it, that would be pretty superficial and an insult to you and your family, if she wont love the ring you made, then i would think twice before marrying this girl. no reason to give 2 rings. basically it comes down to being materialistic or in love.
the one you made yourself, it is much deeper in meaning
just make sure you do up a prenup though (im not saying this will happen but you never know in case of divorce)
If she is not happy to wear the ring you made then she sounds materialistic, if you want to marry someone like this with no soul then get her the one from the shop she liked and save the other one for you daughter when she grows.
I think I would be a little uipset if she did not like the one from the family.
