    we've looked at them and we know what we want. i'm thinking this summer/fall we'll buy them once we have some more money. my ring is an oval solitaire and this is what i want it to look like with bands
  • We looked and the jeweler who made my ring will be creating a band to match up with my ering. FI looked at the titanium ones and he likes them. My only thing I insist on is  that it has the infinity symbol etched into it. Its part of a dorky thing we have always done with I Love You and he took that and my ering band made into infinity symbols.

  • Nope we now we will be going to the jeweler he bought my ring from since he deisgned my e-ring to match but who knows when we will!

    We already bought my ring since I just wanted a plain white gold band and we had a discount from buying the engagement ring from them and were there for a sale on top of it. My FI hasn't bought his yet, but he likes darker grey tungsten bands.

    </div><div>I bought mine because we found the perfect band to match my ring when we bought the e-ring together.  We went back a couple of months ago and decided to just buy it.  I bought FI's ring too- we went shopping for that a couple of months ago and he ended up finding one he loved at the same jewerler where we bought my rings.  His is actually a really large white gold band- didn't expect him to want such a large ring.  My dad has a large wedding band and my mom says makes for large cheater marks LOL</div>

    My e-ring will also be my wedding ring since it's already a split shank :-)


    I do have the option of adding another band, but I tried it on with my ring and didn't like it very much. 

    Edit: Link was wrong, lol.

  • We purchased the wedding band with the E-ring, however not using it as the wedding band. We soddered the rings together for now and are getting a second wedding band for the wedding cermony =)

  • We are picking ours up on friday, put them on layaway at zales a couple months ago, gonna go make final payment and get sized, and send them off to be engraved :)  SO looking forward to having them in my hand again.  I cried when my FI tried his on when we bought them, he insisted on putting mine on me, though it was a size too big.  We are going with the classic solid gold bands, no stones, mine is 3mm his is 6mm

  • Mine came with my ring as a set so we have it and the jeweler through in FI's for free because of all that trouble that we had with my original ring. 

    This is my band.

  • My FI and I went to Jared a couple of months ago, just for fun to look at possible wedding bands. I literally tried on like 20 different wedding bands to see which ring would go best. I had a hard time finding a wedding band to go with my engagement ring because the diamonds on the band are channel set... so most of the time you see a channel set diamond band engagement ring with a channel set diamond wedding band. But I didn't want that, I wanted something different so I found this:


    And we also got FI's wedding band that day too... I melted when I saw it on him.

  • We haven't looked in person, but I've browsed online.  

    I will probably go to the shop where FI bought my e-ring to find something that matches the band.  I need something thin (my e-ring band is super thin), with pave diamonds, & NOT an eternity.

    FI is going to get a tungsten ring because tungsten is as strong as steel and pretty much impossible to scratch. He works at a steel mill so we won't have to worry about it getting scratched up & ruined everyday. 



  • We just looked last night, cause Blue Nile, where he bought my e ring has a groupon out.  We were deciding if we each should get a groupon or just get one. My ring will be the one that matches the e ring. For his, we were looking at tungsten which I think looked pretty cool, and I liked those designs.

  • We have our rings already. My e-ring and wedding band came as a set. I bought his ring a few weeks ago and am in the process of making payments.

  • I would say get them asap, regardless of how far your wedding is. Under Murphy's Law, anything that can go wrong, will go wrong. Sizing can be a tricky thing. A close friend of mine spent 3 excruciating months getting her and her fiance's ring size juuuuust right, and they almost didn't get their wedding bands in time! Better to be early than on time I always say. If you're looking for a tungsten wedding band, I would suggest this retailer: Tungsten World. They have an amazing warranty policy.
