You’ve been dating since high school. She was a senior, president of the drama club,
when you were a junior: an older woman (…at least that’s what your friends
joked when you told them you first had a crush). It was after a production of Much Ado About Nothing,
you were playing Benedict and she was Beatrice, when she pulled you aside
backstage for what you assumed was help finding a prop. Before you knew it, she had swung you around
the curtain and kissed you.
An intense and fearless young romance followed. Late night “study sessions” at each other’s
houses, camping trips with each other’s respective friend groups, and secret
weekend getaways to the farthest point either of you could drive without your
parents getting suspicious of the mileage on your odometer (yes, they were
snoopy, but it was because they cared).
You went to prom, and shortly thereafter decided to break up
because she was going to the East Coast for college and you wanted to make sure
she had the opportunity to experience university independently, without
worrying about you back home.
A year later you were at a neighboring college just a train
ride away. Another year passed without
much contact. Then, with her in her
junior year of college and you in your sophomore year, you decided to take a
trip up to her visit for the weekend.
It was apparent from the moment you saw each other that the
feelings you had, had were not “had feelings” at all, but something both of you
were still very much “having.” Friday
she broke up with her college boyfriend (not one of the relationship’s finer
moments) and by Sunday you got back together.
When she finished school, she moved down to the city and
into an apartment you had rented so she wouldn’t have to live in your college
dorm. A year later you both moved back
to Tennessee, where you grew up, to start the next chapter of your lives
together.
When you knew it was time to pop the question, you went
online to find a classic jewelry story for rings that were custom made for your
one of a kind gal. And you happened upon
Draper’s Jewelry of Nashville, TN.
Draper’s Jewelry has a number of custom wedding bands, as well as bands
from major jewelry makers. Open since
1944, our family owned and operated business will help you find the perfect
piece for that special someone with whom you were always meant to be.
