Wedding Band

CierraM09

My fiancee proposed to me with a beautiful Love's Embrace Ring from Kay Jewelers, however now while looking at wedding band and getting a feel for what we want and a budget, we have come to find that we need a custom band made to fit my ring. Any other brides to be or past brides have this ring with a custom band? I would love to see how they look with bands and we cant find photos of them anywhere.

I had to have a custom band made for my ring.  No photos as it is still in the box waiting for our wedding.

A good jeweler will be able to provide recommendations and create one for you.  I would avoid the big box stores like Kays for this type of work.  A small custom jewelry designer will be able to suggest band options for you and create it based on your budget.   Be aware that in order for them to create a custom band they will need to have your ring for a few weeks to create a mold.

I recommend going to a smaller established mom/pop shop. They are able typcially to do more custom work & do it within whatever budget you set for them. My fiance & I went to 6 different chain stores looking at bands for him. I found a nice privately owned jewler & went in. They had more of a selection in the style he wanted but didn't have what he wanted in stock. The salesperson was amazing making calls to see if it could be make & going through catalogs to see if it was something that could be ordered (his couldn't be custom made based on material). He found the exact ring my fiance dreamed of having and the price was the same, maybe even better then the chain stores.
