[See link for the inspiration for this idea]

Take a ring - harder alloys are better in this case - and engrave an audio recording around the circumference as a single, continuous groove a la phonographic cylinders.

The audio could be stock, such as the Wedding March, or a company’s jingle; or custom, such as a couple’s wedding vows. Friends could exchange rings with a favorite song, poem or quote.

The recording implies a player, but the player could be a simple affair and bundled with the cost of the ring(s).
