I Thee Betroth
Asking for a woman's hand in marriage really dates back to Roman times. Basically, a groom traded a coin or ring as a sign of security for his promise. In Egyptian times, the circular shape of the ring has always symbolized, unending love. Other forms of history say that in the Middle Ages it was common to split a coin and give half to the woman and half to the man to bind their commitment to each other.
The Diamond engagement ring has been around since the fifteenth-century. In addition to the clear stones, colored gemstones are also symbolic in nature (amethyst meaning luck) and all these amazing stones main purpose is to seal your promise with something of value.
