Help - wedding band or no wedding band?

Ready for a story?

Natalie K doesn't normally make a matching band for my e-ring, but the jeweler said they'd had Natalie K do custom ones for this ring before, that had the same design that's on the shank of my e-ring. Sounded great! They tried to find a picture but couldn't, we said whatever, if it's the same design it's fine, go for it. 

Picked up the band last week - it's the same elements, but def not the same 'design'. My e-ring looks leafy and vine-y, the band doesn't. I don't want to be a PITA, but I just don't know if I like it or if it looks right. FI says that maybe I don't need a band with my e-ring. Maybe I could wear it as an anniversary band on the right hand or something... I don't know. What do you think?

Got a pic of the e-ring by itself in my bio, but here are pics with the band.

Close-up:


From a normal distance - it looks like one of those rings with diagonal baguettes to me...

    I think it looks fine but it's your wedding band and you have to like it.  Maybe you could exchange it for something much simple in the same colors.

    The only issue with getting a standard band is the height of e-ring. All of the bands we tried on next to it looked really flat in comparison, and that really didn't look right - didn't feel ring on my finger, either. :(

    I like it, too. But if you don't like it, I thik it would work fine to wear the band on the other hand like he suggested. Don't they wear wedding bands on the right hand in other countries anyway? :)

    I guess it just depends if you like wearing rings. I don't wear them often except for my e-ring, so I don't know that I'd wear rings on both hands on a daily basis, but that's just me. I might, if I just got used to it.

     Ithink it looks good, but as stated above, you have to like it.  I think you can do whatever you want with bands (like my mom wears hers on the outside bc she is afraid she will lose her e-ring haha even though its the right size)

    I also agree with the people above me. A lot of women who get very unique engagement rings wear them on their right hand and wear the wedding band on the left hand.  Why don't you find a wedding band you like by itself and then after the wedding, switch the engagement ring to the other hand?
