Is it unusual for a woman to have 2 wedding bands?

I have a large vintage style engagement ring desinged by christopher designs. We are looking at wedding bands right now and i really like the idea of having 2 wedding bands so that the ring has an even look to it and I think it would give it a more complete look. I have had alot of somewhat rude responses from women saying that i'm spoiled and that i'm ridiculous for wanting two. Is it that uncommon for women to have 2 or am i truly vein for thinking this? help!

  • Well, it is unusual... (I don't know anyone else who has done this) and I don't personally understand the rationale for 2 wedding bands, but... the only people who really matter in this decision are you and your husband.  If he supports it, and it is meaningful to you, that's all that matters.  As for everyone else, just don't talk about it.  Honestly, most people will never look at or notice your ring either way, and for those who do, there is no reason to say, "I just really wanted 2."

    That's what I am doing too! My e-ring band does not have diamonds and it looks weird with a diamond wedding band. So I gave up my eternal diamond wedding band for 2 (much thinner) half-way diamond bands. They were the exact same cost.
  • I have 2- not to "even" it out, but to wear both on 1 side-  a nice diamond band and a super cheap black diamond band (not to be worn every day)

    I plan on getting other colors, as well. I like to accessorize ;)

  • I actually have 2 bands.  FI picked out the E-ring and wedding band set this way.

    If you want two bands, go for it!
  • I think you can do whatever you want. I want to have a band on each side of my ring eventually. Hopefully for an anniversary I'll get the 2nd band sometime down the road.
