to sauder or not to sauder

[Deleted User]

My wedding band & engagement aren't a "set" they are two rings that were found at different times that happen to look really good together or separately. So now I'm stuck with the choice, do I sauder them together after the wedding or leave them separate to give me the option to wear the band alone. Looking for pro & cons from people that have either saudered or not saudered their bands together. Thanks girls!!

I am keeping my separate.  I just like the option of being able to wear both or just the wedding band.

I don't really think there are pros and cons to this choice but just a personal preference.

From my understanding, soldering them together makes the stronger for everyday wear, but if the bands for both are wide enough, then I'm not sure you'd have an issue. I probably won't be soldering mine together because my wedding band is a family heirloom while my engagement ring is unique to me. So like PP, I think it's mostly personal preference.

I am keeping mine separate.  I know at times I will want to wear the wedding band by itself.  It really seems like it's a personal preference.

By the way, it's solder, not sauder.  :)

I'm soldering mine together.  I had to have my band custom made to fit against my engagement ring because of it's irregular shape, but when they aren't snug together and they shift, they look odd.

Don't solder them; keep your options open.  Just one woman's opinion ...
