It was huge and clunky and really not me. He got one for himself too, which is funny, because he's SO not a ring person. I'm not sure, but I guess he liked the matchy-matchiness of it all. He's extremely sentimental, and he had gotten the rings for us when we decided to go to Ireland for a friend's wedding. He told me he also got it because I'm Irish and he wanted to give me something, well, Irish. It was a really sweet gesture but I couldn't bring myself to wear the ring. He never wore his either. We laugh about it now.
ETA: Oops! I didn't read the title closely enough. I thought it was the first gift from your husband. The first gift from my first boyfriend was flowers. Nice but nothing super special.
