An emotional and financially-hit husband has gone viral after his wife surprised him with a wedding band to replace an ultra-cheap one he had lost around two years ago and refused to replace because it meant so much to him. Ben Burnette’s original wedding band was purchased for around $30 in a clearance sale when he and his wife, Brittany, headed to the Colorado mountains and wedded on impulse in 2017. The ring was so poorly made, Brittany, 30, said, that the gold eventually rubbed off to reveal silver. During the pandemic, Ben and Brittany’s business began to struggle, as the pair of photographers from Richmond, Kentucky, had a number of weddings and shoots canceled. To make matters worse, Ben, 32, lost his wedding ring while gardening and was never able to rediscover it. Ben struggled to get over the loss, Brittany said – not because of the price, but because of how much it meant to him. Ahead of Christmas 2021, Ben and Brittany had decided not to get each other presents due to their financial losses in November. Little did Ben know, Brittany had seen a wedding band in their local grocery store when shopping for candy, which she decided to purchase and hide in the stocking as a bonus gift. When Ben started looking at the ring and Brittany explained what it meant, the beloved father and husband began to cry happy tears.ce
