It would seem that I would be thanking Sanrio for not creating these until after I was already married, but Hello Kitty Hell doesn’t make something like this simply disappear due to timing. While Hello Kitty wedding rings weren’t around when my wife and I got married, their appearance so close to our 10th anniversary has my wife trying to convince me that this is exactly what we need to celebrate the occasion:
It would be bad enough if I had to give her a Hello Kitty wedding ring, but it’s even worse that they come in a matching pair with Hello Kitty engraved on the inside meaning that I would also have to wear a Hello Kitty wedding ring. Sanrio, in their marketing genius, have set this up as a no win situation for any man living in Hello Kitty Hell. While the bride’s ring has Hello Kitty prominently on the outside, Hello Kitty is hidden on the inner circle of the ring on the groom’s ring — apparently even they realized the backlash if they had tried to place Hello Kitty’s face on the outside, but this strategic placement gives the bride negotiating room to argue that it is not nearly as bad as it could have been.
In reality, having Hello Kitty on the inside isn’t any better. Just the thought that I am somehow defacto married to Hello Kitty as well makes my heart seize up and gives my stomach that wonderful nauseating feeling you get before you have to run to the toilet to vomit.
Of course, the wedding rings don’t come cheap when Hello Kitty lends her face to them. The platinum Hello Kitty wedding rings run $1,640 (189,000 Yen) with the bride’s ring getting two minuscule diamond chips (0.02ct ) added to either side of Hello Kitty’s face. I’m actually surprised that they are Pepto Bismol pink.
So once again the Hello Kitty quandary arises. If I don’t get the rings, I will have to get something Hello Kitty that could be just as awful (or even worse) to placate not getting them. Either way I lose and Hello Kitty wins which is almost always the case in Hello Kitty Hell…
They are preetty as rings… but wedding rings? Is there a single man on earth willing to wear one of those?
🙂
In centuries to come, after the empires of today have turned to dust, will those in the future wonder what the religious significance of Hello Kitty was?
Wii they see the plethora of HK items all over the world as more powerful that Jesus, Mohammed, Elvis or Buddah?
Chilling thought. But it could happen.
“One ring to rule them all, and in the darkness, bind them.”
Hello Kitty is Sauron!
Too late – shown it to the boyfriend, these are the rings we are going to have. I’m not kidding.
Is it ok if I don’t wear the ring, he says. No its not!
Yeah, well, I finally get to go to Japan and what does my sister demand that we see? Freaking Puroland! I walked in there under extreme duress and still have PTSD about it. It looks like an acid trip gone horribly wrong. I also got my butt pinched by Dear Daniel. Hello Kitty Hell is a dark place in my soul and it looks like Puroland to me.
Where is the twleve step program for Kitty maniacs? ISn’t there some sort of anti-abuse law to protect us from this?
I will do everything in my power to save my brother-in-law from those rings. He is too good a man to have to suffer through such ignominy.
So, where can you buy these??
Very cute ring, but not as a wedding ring. I wouldn’t want my husband to wear one. Poor Barrie. But funny to read!! Congrats Rowena!
So, where can you buy these??
As I seem to have to repeat time and again, it aint going to happen – welcome to my Hello Kitty Hell…
im a guy and i would wear a hello kitty ring. i want!
Adorable for me,but I’d never expect my husband-to-be to wear one. If there is a guy out there engaged to a woman who DOES expect him to wear it – run like hell or it will just be your own self inflicted Hello Kitty Hell til death do you part.
guess what that was my wedding
Too bad you have to buy them as a pair. I like the men’s ring and $800 isnt that steep for a nice platinum band. Im not even a fan but I like the idea of a secret hello kitty on the inside of my ring =^.^=
I think you should get the HK one for your wifeand have one made for you with your wifes silouhette on the inside. That way you can tell your wife that while she LOVES HK you LOVE her 😉
Which you obviously do because,…. wow….. that’s a lot of pink and fuzzy kitten you have to deal with.
I’m shocked you haven’t swung the other way and taken to wearing all black leather to balance out your masculinity.
If you ever get to LA I”ll buy you a drink.
Love these!!! But there is no way in hell I would ever let my husband wear that ring, I mean, the man should have SOME amount of pride. I would love to get the women’s ring as my right hand ring though….
hey
the ring my gal likes it
are u selling ?
The idea is to keep cheating men from taking it off! Can’t see kitty if it stays on your finger!
where can i buy that ring?
i want one!!!! >..<
even though i like hello kitty.. but this ring is just plain ugly.. and imagine a man with hello kitty? EW.
where can you buy them?
For everyone asking where you can find it, don’t bother – it aint going to happen – Welcome to my Hello Kitty Hell
OOOO my I totally want it …! Its sooo pretty I jus wuv hellokitty =^.^=
My boyfriend asked me if I wanted these to be our wedding rings. You have no idea how repulsed I was at the idea of hk forever engraved on our wedding rings. I appreciate his effort to please me though.
I know of a man willing to wear a Hello Kitty wedding band. I love you, Jimmy. <3
PLEASE TELL ME WHERE TO GET THESE RINGS!!! PLZ!!
If you were a cheating husband, this would totally get you laid with a “Here, let me show you exactly how miserable my marriage is” line.
I agree the ring…very hott….im definetly gonna get this as a wedding ring…and my boyfriend definetly has to wear it!
where can i buy these??? seriously.
Do u sell the ring?I love it.
Wow, I jus vomited in my mouth a little.
Love the rings, but I would not make my husband to be wear one…besides Hello Kitty is just for me anyway…he should have his own thing going on…
Help!!! We have been looking to buy these online, but to no avail! Does anybody have a website where we can buy them? We are of course having a HK wedding, and we need these rings!!!
they’re two platinum circles with a tiny attempt of a “drawing” on them. just draw them yourself :P:P:P
For my girlfriend, I would ware one yes 🙂
I think the hello kitty wedding rings are sooo pretty
when i get married im going make my husband were it and if he doesn t want to then i wont marry him lol jk i’ll just make him wear it . 😀
I like them; I think they’re cute. But as a wedding ring? O.o; I could never. I just feel marriage is too sacred for that. But that’s just me. If anyone else wants to use ’em, okay…
I feel for you bro, my lady would freak if she knew about the rings. we are talking about getting married soon but cant save any money, WHY….. BECAUSE OF THE DAMN CAT!!!!!!! HELP
uhhhm…..
okay
hello kitty is cute on me….
but not on a guy
no way
never ever force a guy to be humiliated like that
i mean
there is definately a limit….
o_O
just email sanrio about it, i’m sure they can help you with finding them.
my fiancee actually suggested a hello kitty wedding ^_^ i’m so lucky heehee
took me all of one minute to find 😛 google is your friend lol
Men don’t look good in Hello Kitty gear, woman do. Besides the rings to plain.
Fiancee: OMG isn’t that sooo cute?
Me: What?
Fiancee: These Hello Kitty wedding bands!
Me: ????????
Fiancee: Wouldn’t the be so original?!?!
Me: No… no they wouldn’t…
(Being totally ignored)
Fiancee: Look they are under $2000 dollars!!!!!
Me: ???????
Fiancee: I’m gonna see if they would take a down payment.
Me: *Grabs a knife and goes to cut his ring finger off.*
Fiancee: Oh quit being so dramatic, cutting your finger off won’t stop us from getting married, with these rings.
Me: No that isn’t it, my fingers swell- a lot- and I have to get rings cut off or I’ll loose my finger. I guess in this scenario it’ll be me or the ring and I’m gonna lose out…. why wait for the rush?
when i get married i will make my partner join me with these bands of love fo HK
WHERE CAN I GET THESE RINGS!?!?!??!
…only you, my babyqouh’
i hope you are happy alwz!
i love you vry much……….

Where can I find them???
Haha it´s scary how much i enjoy reading this blog
alright people.
As this guy stated, DO NOT ask were to get these items at. He won’t tell you, since he most likely gets these in e-mails.
And there are people with “I love HK” and Sanrio” little screenames, why would they do that sicne this is HK HELL!
Lord.
i want them!!!
i love them very much~
how can i buy them?
anyone can tell me,please?
Actually it was my husband to be that sent this link to me and it was his idea I give these a thought…seeing how “THE RING” as in LOR the ring is twice the price as these..So I do know at least 1 guy that will ware this ring. who is ever going to know the mans ring has hello kitty on the inside but you and your wife?? Well theres the person that finds it on the bars bathroom floor when you take it off to hide the fact your married!!! Not knocking you men but after hours cleaning I do tend to find rings and all sort of neat things you men try to hide in bars from women.
These ARE really cute ass rings. I´ll get them no matter what my husband says he´s gonna wear it and like it
Ok – if I get the Hello Kitty ring, my husband gets the threatened Lord of the Rings ring for himself.
that ring is already out on the web so those little rings r easy to find find a new one dum*** !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! there are alot more 2 choose from and if my husban ever give that 2 me i would yell + it haz no big dimonds my husban makes 5 million a year i would never accept that crap 🙁 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’ve got to befriend your wife! Where do you find all this stuff???? My own daughter has outgrown Hello Kitty, but I haven’t! 🙂
they are lovely but i don`t think i would have got them as wedding rings
DaT iS sO HoT !!
* OMG *
I want them for when i get maried
OMG! Too bad you posted this the day AFTER I got married. I guess you saved my husband. Though, he is a total sport (not to be confused with a push over, by any means) and would wear this. It would be nice to wear as a right hand ring if they made it in Platnium. 🙂
Ya know I like how shiny they are but that is it. My wife has way better taste then those rings though she likes the rocks.
might be cute as a purity ring for a teen, but a wedding ring I’d have to say no. dolphin shaped blue diamond could work tho lol
Thank you for posting this. I wanted a simple engagement ring (platinum setting with pink sapphires and a center diamond.) He said that was too expensive. So I showed him this and said sweetly, “Well this is sooo much cheaper than that ring I wanted and it comes in a set.”
The ring I wanted is on it’s way!
where can i buy the rings?
please tell me!!!
They are great rings…. where can I find them?
that would be an amazing medding! i loove hello kitty =]
I showed these to my fiance and he said he would wear it! We both love Hello Kitty. Anyone know where to get them though?
theres my wedin ring
xoxoxoxoxoxoxo sebie
I want Hello Kitty Ring
Jeeze! I thought I was obsessed! Don’t drink the Kool-Aid dude! Let your wife have her HK thing but you shouldn’t have to pretend that you are likewise afflicted. My husband “tolerates” the HK toaster and the checks coz he never writes checks but that’s about it and I respect him for it. I think you need to hold an intervention for your wife!
Good luck man.
Hi i like hello kitty so much and im onlie 10 and i like the wedding rings and i really really love that hello kitty cell phone and my bd is coming up and i might get a cell phone will bye
As rediculous as it is, my fiance is getting me those rings. Hah. It’s an obsession.
i wuv them… but my boyfriend doesn’t… WHAT SHOULD I DO?
Is it possible to just have the kitty on the inside of it buffed out?
@Susan. Obama just won the presidency. Are you seriously commenting on a Hello Kitty website right now???
i think there adorable and any guy that loves his girl enough to wear that ring is a keeper!
OMG, it’s so horrible! Who would propose to someone with that piece of crap???
my fiance already has a ring he wants 🙂 but but , I am still looking for my wedding ring. I reaaally love this kitty ring. But i don’t want both. O_O; what am I gonna do with two hello kitty rings? one that doesnt even show the kitty?!?!?! 🙁 seriously i wonder if you can buy them separately.
ok it final getting married with these…
now thaTS REALL CUTE AND NICE I WANT THAT FOR M WEEDING
AND NICE I WANT THAT FOR M WEEDING
Only some gay person would wear that
my girlfriend like this, I want to buy one.
I’m obsessed with hello kitty but i didnt know people could be this obsessed with it …this is terrible!! i like the ring and everything and i would want it for myself but definately not for a wedding ring.
Hahaha, for real, that’s a real wedding ring? That’s got to be a terrible joke. I have spent the last four weeks looking for the perfect ring and this post was a nice change of pace. Doesn’t matter if the head’s on the inside. It’s even worse that the kitty is gnawing at your finger! Ahh!
If my husband ever buys me one, I cut off that finger. Dude, enough is enough man. HK MUST DIE!!!!!!!
I want to have this ring when I get married : D
I LOVE HELLO KITTY!!!!!!!!!!!!
hell yeah! i’ll wear one of those………. weeeeeeeeeeehh!
my boyfriend loves hello kitty too so these rings would be perfect for us
That’s just sad to have hello kitty wedding rings………
My boyfriend adores Hello Kitty! He would love to wear this beautiful wedding ring and he wants me to wear a Hello Kitty wedding dress! I love him!
Where can I find the HK wedding rings?
What’s sad is, I know my boyfriend would wear one if I asked, but I would NEVER make him go through that humiliation. Hell I don’t even wanna go through life with that furball’s face engraved on my wedding band.
these rings are pretty nice. my gf will love them.
where can u buy??
i would like to hint at my man with this >.>
haha xDD
Sleeping with the enemy
my man said he’d wear the ring….. anything for his baby! 😉
=^.^= hahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahaha it’s a Kitty 😀
them are some sexy asz rings…………i will get me one when i get married
Forever21! If you can’t find any at the good deals, great clothes, and cletlepmoy awesome store!, try Charlotte Russe, Delias, even Khol’s. Still can’t find any? There are a lot more choices on their websites. Don’t have time for the shipping? Might have to find a cheap-o one at Walmart or Target. Have fun!
Wow now I see why the hello kitty face is on the inside of the ring for men…I mean no guy I’ve ever been with would wear that ring…although I wish my boyfriend would :]
Dude, if you put that ring on your finger and were discovered by a band of yahoos, you’d be lashed to the back of a truck and dragged down the street for at least a mile….
Oh, cute rings but NOT for guys…I would totally want one if I were getting married now !
Ariella, you are one smart cookie…good going on getting the ring you really wanted !
Don’t worry, if your wife makes you get these rings, I’m pretty sure you can get engravings faded to nothing. That way, you can exfoliate Kitty’s face to oblivion. She’d still get your money, though.
Yipes, 1600 bucks?
My husband got me the 175 dollar HK ring from Zales and I love it!
These rings are cute.. but not clean out your wallet cute!
I would just want the ladies one. I’d never make my man wear a HK ring.
You have to REALLY love your spouse to agree to wear these proudly as a sign of your love and devotion to someone. For the female it’s okay, but unless the guy is a yes man, no male in his right mind would wear the matching male band.
Still, if it wear Dear Daniel and not HK on the groom’s band, I don’t think it would be as bad.
I totally understand Hello Kitty Hell! My boyfriend wants these, yes a GUY WANTS THESE RINGS… he wants a hello kitty scooter, I told him no….It’s insane!
I think viewing this site has now given me sufficient warning that giving into one hello kitty request will only bring about more, there is no end in sight!!
hHA my fav is u hello kitty
WHERE DO YOU GET THESE ?!
Send me info pleaseeeee.
omg i love your posts and the comments are very funny … “on ring to rule them all ” =)) ….i’m not a hello kitty fan but i dont hate the hk industry 😛
dude when sean and i get married were soooo getting that!!! thats amazin! i love it im askin my fiance to get me them
I want one but I don’t want my husband to wear one! Just me. this is a very cute idea along with a Hello Kitty wedding.
omgg omgg iwantt thosee,shoott if ur mann reallyy loves yew,hell wear ett tew makee yew happyy:]
this is really a fantastic pair of rings.
Ha. I’m so lucky, I mentioned these to my boyfriend and he seriously wants them almost as bad as I do. ;P.
I don’t own much HK items, a couple shirts max, but I never had to force my liking of HK on my man. :].
He and I are planning on matching HK tattoos. ;D.
But I totally understand what too much is; I wouldn’t own household appliances or have an entire wedding.
Your wife is nice enough to let you have this blog though for your sanity.
aww they are soooo cute!!!! i just have to have these for my wedding!!
im still trying to convince my fiance to get them. 🙂 wish me luckkk! 😀
Even this is too much for me, and I’m a proud owner of the original Hello Kitty vibrator!
ooh i love these, me and my girlfriend are both shameless hello kitty fans 😛 do you think they’d stone me to death if i asked to have 2 female rings??
*wantthembadnow*
ah i love you
Kind of late on this story, but just wondering if you broke down and bought these rings for your anniversary or not?
OMFG I LOVE ITT!
Womens… Nice, i guess. Mens………… not so much……………. =(
I want these.
I love those rings… I’m gonna convience my boyfriend to buy them. I am a sanrio/otaku junkie… Thanks for the idea!
heheh i never thought that sanrio acttually came out with wedding bands and engagement rings… my boyfriend was terrified at first but eventually he said we’ll get this lol
I don’t thing a guy would wear that but i know i would!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hai..i love this hello kitty ring , can u tell me where can buy this hello kitty ring ? and the wat price ? im from malaysia..thanks
hallo can u tell me where can buy the hello kitty ring please, im urgent buy
wat the hell, y u no reply me
I wish I had one of those wedding rings when I grow up because I am a HUGE fan of Hello Kitty!
I loved it, but just for me… I never would like to my husband use.. Things to decorate the home, kitchen, my clothes, have the Kitty is ok, but his personal things is too much! Almost this things I respect!
IF I ever get married again, we will have these. Any man who loves me enough to marry me will love me enough to wear this ring!! Whoo Hoo!!!
Hello Kitty is good as a child’s toy or the odd throw pillow — but a WEDDING RING?! WTF?!
Is there nothing sacred?!
(Also, it’s nice to have a pet kitty in your house, but be sure to have her spayed, to prevent her from multiplying!)
Erms, my “multiplying” remark was directed at the fans, not at their haples male friends.
Best wishes,
Spay
This is freaking hilarious! I love HK. I would not, however, use this as my main wedding ring. I think the cost is quite high for two diamond chips! I also love my diamonds….not as suggestions of diamonds. I wouldn’t mind having it just for myself as a right handed ring. No way would I ask my husband to wear it after 25 year of marriage. Plus I think he is in Hello Kitty Hell with the author of this site! Love the site BTW even though I am like the oldest Hello Kitty fan on the planet (@49yrs). My 50th Bday party WILL BE HELLO KITTY!! Hello Kitty…Rock on!
can u give me the website where u found these rings my man wants to get them for me and him when we get married pleaaseeeeee thank you I love Hello Kittyyy
o___o one ring to rule them all, one ring to find them. One ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.
Somebody get four midgets, a ranger, an elf and a dwarf. The ring reformed.
I would never wear one of these… I’d be afraid my finger would burn off at the touch… (As a personal rule: no fandom in permanent things. So I won’t ever get a Triforce tattoo or get the symbol of the Deathly Hallows on a wedding ring)
NEVER!!!!!!!!!! i would get lord of the rings wedding rings before i would get hello kitty, and i love hello kitty but i would never have my husband get that! ladies please never make a man get that ring set! if i were a man i would “lose” the ring. and all the crap they would get from there friends! and trust me there friends would find out. never do this to a man!!!
i really love hello kitty i’m a avid fan since i was a little girl but when i saw this wedding ring… i feel that i like to get married again (i’m separated) & i really really want this ring… Please tell me where can i get those rings… pls.. pls.. pls…
These are actually really cute .__. And I know that my boyfriend would wear the other one~ and he’s not gay or bi either. C: I’m lucky. <3
I will get one. Just one bec I’m getting divorced. What a great way to celebrate! If I have to get both of them, I’ll wear one on each hand.
how to buy kitty ring??how much??
i like the rings i mean…its a tad obbsessive…and if my bf saw that it would make me happy i know he would buy them…hes already agreed on a hk bedset for our bed…but never wuld i humilate him this much by forcing him to wear one of those rings
LOL. Thats all I have to say….
Not kewl DOWWGGG….or hello kitty…
Aww where do u gett them!?(;
the same question was asked so many times, but none replied :((( where to buy these rings??? does anyone know???
please let me know if you can find it anywhere…. thnx
Ooo gimme…
Hello kitty jewellery is already bad, but the most important jewellery for a married couple? Even as a woman I would not dare to put these on. I would probably risk losing my husband. Though it looks cute, it is TOO cute for something as serious for a symbol lifetime commitment. I would definitely skip this!
This is for you.
how much is that ring??
OMG!!!!! I need it badlyy ((= hello kitty us the best thing that has happened on this earth aside from my fiance
Trying to decide on wedding bands for this summer, well, this is one piece of jewelery I can tick off the list!
I WANT.
