My parents have been divorced since about 1992 when I was about 9 years old. They are both great people, but just shouldn't have been married. I think my brothers and I are better off for it. 

Anyway, a few years back, my parents both gave me their wedding rings to have. I am in a serious relationship with the woman who I may one day ask to marry me. Since I have these rings and they belonged to the people who created me, I thought it might be special when the time comes to have them melted down and custom make a ring for my future bride. 

But since I know how symbolic the wedding ring is, do you think it would be a bad idea to use them since my parent's marriage obviously didn't work?

Melt down my divorced parent's wedding rings to make one for my future bride?
