I had both an engagement ring and wedding band made at the same time for my future fiancee. I am now wondering if when I propose, I should propose with both rings (and not let her wear the wedding band until the ceremony) or if I should propose with just the engagement ring and show her the wedding band later when she decides she wants to go looking at them.

Just the Engagement Ring. Show her the wedding band later.

It's a great idea to buy the matching wedding band. Just propose with the engagement ring though. She won't be wearing the wedding band until the you guys get married so there really wouldn't be a point in proposing with it.

You should definitely propose with only the engagement ring:
You do not want to deal with added embarrassment if she says no (she wouldn't). You can show her the matching wedding band when you have set a wedding date, at this time she will be very happy about your consideration, and your ability to think ahead.
Congratulations!!

Propose with just the engagement ring and tell her you have already bought the wedding band. Congratulations and Good Luck!

I think that you should do just the engagement ring and just tell her that you have already purchased the wedding band. Don't let her see it until the wedding day...it will be a wonderful surprise.

Yep, just the engagement ring when proposing, then later show her the wedding band. You could show her as early as the same night, but if she's sees both when you propose, she'll assume that together they are her e-ring, and she'll be bummed she won't be able to wear them until you're married.

Just the engagement ring. And save the WEDDING band for the WEDDING.

You should propose with the just the engagement ring.The wedding ring is for after you say your vows to each other. But that was good thinking.By getting both at the same time, you pay one price instead of paying for each one separately.
Congratulations.

You only propose with the engagement ring...show her that you made a matching set after you've proposed (and she says yes, of course). She will love that you took all the time and effort to truly make something special!
