Just weeks ago, Lindsay and Abasolo — who aregetting married in Augustin a “destination wedding” —picked out their wedding bands.
“It was exciting [picking out the rings],” Lindsay, whogot engagedto Abasalo on the finale of their season in 2017, told PEOPLE. “They signify our love and commitment to each other.”
The couple, wholive together in Miami, visited legendary jeweler Neil Lane (he designed Lindsay’s3-carat engagement ring) in Los Angeles to make their selection.
“I knew which ring I wanted the second Neil took out the display,” said Abasalo. “It just stuck out right away and I immediately went with my gut. On the other hand, Rachel wanted to try on every ring in the store!”
Said Lindsay: “I went in knowing exactly what I wanted but then Neil Lane made it extremely difficult for me and I wanted everything.”
Ultimately, “I went with a more classic band,” said Abasalo. “I’m quick and simple. You can’t go wrong with that. Rachel likes more of the flashier, bold statement rings.”
Lindsay agreed: “I knew I wanted it to stand out alone from my engagement ring. I wanted it to make a statement that says this is forever so you can’t downplay that!”
Now, the pair is counting down the days until they are husband and wife.
“I feel like it hasn’t hit me all the way yet,” said Abasalo. “Getting everything ready is probably the most stressful part of the whole process, but I think that on the day of the wedding a calm happiness will set in and we’ll be ready to have the time of our lives and celebrate our love with all our loved ones.”
