I think this was quite easy for me because I wanted a plain band for my wedding ring so my dream ring was really cheap anyway!

I could do a poll but since Shazk offered first; I'll leave it to her.
I'd say rings as you are going to be wearing them all the time :)

Dress.
It's what you'll see when looking back at pictures and you can't ever change that. I'm planning on getting cheap rings and upgrading in the future when we have saved up some money :)
CommentAuthorMartinH57
A ring is important .. and it has to be good enough to last a lifetime but it really can be any gold band as it's the symbol that counts not the cost - and most of the guests will not see it that close anyway ..
The Dress on the other hand .. you might only wear it for one day .. but it will be in ALL of the pictures and all the guests will see it
my vote would be cheep ring - nice dress .. ( you can always get a really nice infinity ring later when funds let you )
CommentAuthorbarbie86
I was going to say the rings, no question, because they last for life; but, I recently 'upgraded' my engagement ring so that kind of blows that argument out of the water lol. Unless you are very sentimental, I guess the rings can always be upgraded; whereas the photos, many of which the dress will be in, can't.
So, I'm going to say dress: I would rather have a cheap £10 silver band with the option of changing it later, and a nice dress, than a £10 dress and expensive ring.

Tough one... My ring is quite plain so I say dress as that's what makes u feel amazing on ur day and what people will remember!

CommentAuthorBev
Dress, without a doubt! Like a few of the brides on here, I've also had to change my original engagement ring so I wouldn't say ring... Although I absolutely love my new bridal set (can't wait for it to be delivered!) but I feel like the dress is what will be in the photos and guests memories for longer! X
CommentAuthorFernP61
Argh both can't choose! My dress is 'the one' and my ring I suppose the ring more but I don't know anyone who has had the same ring, with weight going up and down your ring size can change I suppose if you got married then lost alot of weight you could have it made smaller, but if not and you maybe had health issues like my nan did then you would have to get another one x

My ring, that is what I wear every day for the rest of my life, the dress is for 1 day and a basic one can look lovely xxx

CommentAuthorValentinaK
The dress! The ring will always be a reminder and as long as there is one on my finger I'm sure it will look beautiful!
The dress is something that you'll have more photos of to remember and will make you feel a million dollars on the day and you can't go back and relive that really... not your ACTUAL wedding day... you could always adjust and alter the ring through the years! :)
And we lived happily ever after!
CommentAuthorLinzi-jo
The ring! That is the thing that will be blessed on my wedding day and that I plan to wear for the rest of my life, and is what shows the marriage to others. The dress is just for the day, and although I have spent a fair bit on mine, if I was told I had to choose I would return the dress and keep the ring! xxx

The ring!! The dress may be in all the pictures but rings are for life. When you exchange rings you're saying those words to each other, it's truly magical!!! A dress is just a dress.

Rings for me without a doubt thats the thing i will look at for the rest of my life. I'm sure the wedding photos will come out from time to time and i will remember the dress i wore, but my ring will be with me all the time.
CommentAuthorElaineH41
Ring, I'm going to wear it for the rest of my life (hopefully! x
CommentAuthordan22

This is really hard as my wedding band is going to be a very plain 18ct white gold and my dress is very plain!
Cant wait until I become Mrs K
CommentAuthorMrsRusty2B
To me, the dress is more important as I'm hoping to get a dress which I can wear again after my wedding day.
CommentAuthorJoannaS
its the ring for me its something I look at every day and will hopefully for the rest of my life x
CommentAuthorEmmaB933
I would say both. You have the ring for the rest of your life but at the same time u want to look amazing on your wedding day :-) x
CommentAuthorOfficially Mrs M
I would say dress was to me because i'm so self conscious! the ring could have just been a plain band for me. It isn't and Jon wanted me to have some more sparkle so I got one with diamonds in but I was looking at plain ones originally. took me forever to find my wedding dress

I say dress ... I got a dress that I have had converted into an evening dress so I can wear it again. I don't have my dream ring, but Dan put a spanner in the works by saying that he wanted us to have matching rings ... I can hope to get my dream ring as an eternity ring!

CommentAuthorHayley Elizabeth
It's the ring for me, still important to have the dress but i really want to know that i have the perfect band for the rest of my life and i absolutely love my ring :) xx
CommentAuthorNot_so_reluctant_Jin
I think they are equally important. The dress is generally what people look forward to see and the ring is the daily symbol of your marriage. My ring cost more than my dress. Initially I wanted a plain 1.5mm band which apparently doesn't seem to exist and have ended up getting a 1.5mm diamond band made to match my engagement ring. Completely blew my budget on that one! My dress however brought my budget back in line as I ended up getting a bargain with it.
CommentAuthorWhovianbride
Im spending around £30 on my ring and 70/80 for oh as im not a ring person so getting the skinnyest 9ct white gold ring i can get and then a thicker one for oh as hes a chef and does not like rings and will take it off every day for work snd not blowing a load on a ring he may lose

I would say the ring purely because its there forever! Yes the dress is important too but you only wear it once x
CommentAuthorWhovianbride
yeah, but if your in a budget, you can always buy nicer rings later, but it will always be that dress in pics.

CommentAuthormym72
Definitely the rings!! I would've been happy to get married in jeans and old t shirt - but the ring I'll wear for the rest of my life. The dress is just for one day so is fairly superficial.
CommentAuthorNataleeM
ooooo close one with the poll, i would def say dress, as like the other ladies say, they will be in your pics etc and can upgrade rings xx
Can not wait until I marry the man of my DREAMS
CommentAuthorvicki
I originally would have said the rings as you will wear those for the rest of your lives but now that I've organised nearly all of my wedding on a really tight budget I would say the dress as we've bought really cheap rings and we're going to upgrade them next year on our wedding anniversary as we want very specific rings that are quite expensive so it gives us a while after our wedding to save up for them
CommentAuthorx~Hails~x
I have a top five 1 being rings and 2 being photographer. Dress is number 6 or 7 lol It depends on personally feelings I think but for me the things that last beyond the one day are the most important

Obvious choice is the ring. It's a lifelong symbol of your love and commitment to your husband. You only wear the dress once.
