Help me decide on a ring?

Panda8723 · April 2010

My fiance has already picked out a ring and is ready to order, but I'm still undecided. I'm going for a timeless, traditional look but not a boring one. Help me choose?

My engagement ring looks(more or less) like this:

Here are the wedding band options:

2) http://wedding-band-ring.com/WG-11-Y.html
3) http://wedding-band-ring.com/WBE1299.html

^Note on the 3rd option - my mom received a similar ring from my dad for their 20th anniversary, so I'm more inclined to think of it as an anniversary ring than wedding band. But I love it oh so much.

Thanks ladies!

I like the first one the best...the last one is very pretty (I always have liked eternity bands) but if your finger changes sizes at all, I think those are a pain to get resized if the diamonds go all the way around...HTH

I love the 3rd one.... if your worried about diamonds all the way around and sizing you could always get diamonds partially around it

the first one is stunning!!!

I love the 1st one, the design is so pretty. I wish a band like that matched my e-ring!

I like the third best.

I like some bling, so #3 is my personal favorite. I also think #1 is beautiful! Between those two, it just comes down to your personal style, I think. Also, consider whether or not you'll always be wearing your e-ring. I don't always wear my e-ring, so I like the way my wedding band looks alone too.

I love 1 and 2. 1 because it reminds me of my mom's, 2 because I like how well it goes with the wedding band. I think 3 is very pretty, but the diamonds look like they would distract from your very simple e-ring.

I don't like the first one: love the design, but I hate the mixed metals. So if you go that route, I'd get the second one which is beautiful!

But I also LOVE the 3rd one. My e-ring is similar to yours and I got a band that has diamonds half way around. It looks like an eternity bad, but no diamonds on the bottom (why pay for stones you don't really see?). I think it looks great with my ring and doesn't take away from the solitaire at all.

My advice: go to a store and try on a diamond band and an all gold band and see which one looks right to you on your finger.

They are all gorgeous though, so I think you'll be happy whatever you decide! Good luck!

EDIT: Oh and if you do the diamond band, you can get a matching one to go on top later on as an anniversary band.

3rd one.

I personally like the third one also. There are many out there and you can get one that only has the diamonds on the top half not all the way around. My Ering looks almost identical to yours except white gold and I went with the diamond wedding ring. I think they look great together.

the third one! i have a similar ring except the band is white gold. just like the pp, my wedding band has diamonds across the top half but is a plain band for the back.

unless you wear a lot of gold and silver jewelry, i'm not a fan of the two tone metal look for the wedding set.
