Checkity Check!

We picked up our wedding bands today. The first time we ever had anything on lay away but you got to do what you got to do to stay debt free Smile Not sure how I feel about my band. From the moment I got my engagement ring, I didn't think it needed a wedding band. Because it has this three band action going on with a center stone. The reason I did decide to get a band is that I work in a lab and my diamond doesn't sit in the ring, it sits high, so it tends to rip through my glove. So I figure getting the band I could just wear that every day. Now that I type that that doesn't seem right...anyways we ended up getting band that matches the center band of the ring and now when I see the whole set together, just looks too much. Anywho, I guess I wouldn't wear the band with the ring on the regular basis. ring below but mine is white gold.

    </div><div>Love, Love this! that's funny that you already wear your band. The difference with my ring is that the ring itself has three bands (well the effect of three bands since when you look the back it's just one, am I making sense?). While you added the two bands that made it three, so in essence my engagement ring looks like your ring with the bands. So really in truly after adding my band it looks like I have 4 bands and the lady at Zales actually suggested that I get a fifth one to even things out! I don't think so! LOL. </div>

  • I definefintly understand you dont need another band your ring is gorgous now unless you want it to be huge then go for for it but that marquise stands out I love it I I think I am going to have mine fused together I have always been a fan of marquise cut and always said I want a marquise cut ring when I get married
  • Congrats on the check. Very nice rings. A woman can never have too much bling on her wedding finger.

    Girl this!.. and I understand why you would want to get the band and wear it during work hours... I know some people that do that.. there's no issue with it... they use it as a precautionary move due to thier professions needing a certain level of sanitation.
