Getting Married
My boyfriend and I have been talking about getting married and I am fine with that. I actually can not wait. He is my world. The thing is that I want to get my mom's wedding band and engagement ring. My aunt has both of them because my mom passed away. I live to far from her to ask her in person. So I wrote her a letter asking her for the rings. She promised I would get them when I graduated and well, I graduated 2 years ago. I have let it be until now and i do not think she will give them to me. She knows how I feel about getting them and what not. Do you think that she will send them to me?

Alright! You'll never know till you ask her yourself.
Calling can work but face to face is way better. Maybe you don't have a relationship and it's uncomfortable for you to talk to her after a long time since you did.
Besides why wouldn't she want to give you the ring and band, she isn't getting married anytime soon. So there is no main reason that you can suspect her of.
Just give her a visit and ask her to be a part of your wedding, you never know when the world will turn its back on you and you will always need a family member by your side.
Good Luck =]

I would have to question why your aunt want's to keep your mother's rings and what motivates her to do this.
Instead of writing her I would try to contact her by phone and speak with her directly. Explain to her how much this means to you to have your mother's rings in your possession. I don't know the cicurmstances of how and why your aunt ended up with the rings, but you probably need to find out.
Did you have a good relationship with you mom before she passed? The reason I asked you this is because your aunt may feel that if there was any gripe between you and your mother that you don't deserve the rings. (Keep in mind that I am on assuming what happened).
If you truly beleive that you are entitled to the rings, I would take her to court to get the rings back.

She may have forgotten. Remind her either way. If she still doesn't send them, maybe you should talk to her in person. You live too far away though, so I guess if it comes down to it, decide whether or not the wedding band and engagement ring is worth the trip.

Give your aunt the benefit of doubt. Maybe she just forgot to send them to you after you graduated. Have you asked her about the rings since you wrote the letter? That was over two years ago... it easily could have been forgotten. Now that you are getting married, it might be a good time to call her up and tell her the good news, and remind her of the rings. Let her know how much they would mean to you if they were now your wedding rings.

Well technically she has no choice but to send them to you because your mother would probably want you to have them...unless you have another sister then that might be a problem cause its not fair to give them just to you
just call her up and tell her that you want them and your mother would want you to have them and you have the right to get them...and remind her that she said that she would give them to you
