    I'm having a tough time picking a wedding band for my 3 stone ring.  The standard options are either a prong or channel set band and I haven't fallen in love with anything yet.  I really like all three of these choices so let me know what you think.

     

    #1 Pave band (the actual one will be thinner than this one)

    #2 same width as the three diamonds on the e-ring

    #3 half eternity prong set diamonds

    I vote #2 if you'll solder and #3 if you won't. With the second one I can see the rings getting out of alignment, I think that would drive me nuts.

    I think #2 is the BEST! Love the symmetry. I think that the others look good, but #1 and #3 don't look AS cohesive to me.

    I say #2 - I love that it balances out your e-ring without overpowering it.

    I usually like eternity bands, but something about #2 jumps out as my favorite.

    I like them in order, 1, 2, 3!

    1 compliments while still being unique, 2 looks like it was made to go with the set but I think it might take away from the e-ring just a bit, and the eternity band would be my 3rd choice. I think you win no matter which you go with :-)

    Thanks for all the replies!! I keep going back and forth between all three.  It's great to see what other people are thinking though.

    I love #3...I love the look of a full band of diamonds and I think it compliments the stones in your e-ring beautifully!

    I like #2 the best. 

    #1 doesn't go with the e-ring, and I think it's a trend that will go out of style one day.  #2 and #3 are classic, they'll never go out of style.

    I really like the way #2 goes with your ering.  It just looks "right".

    I love the #2 & was thinking the same thing for my own! ... can I ask what the total weight of the #2 wedding band is?

     

    Thanks and Congrats : )!

    definitely #2.  my next choice would be a full eternity ring - not the half.

    @ria2886: I think it was about .25 ctw, not 100% sure but it was around there.

     

    This is the band I bought, I was really in love with the pave look so decided I wanted that.  Then I found a Vera Wang band that is pave, put it on and told the sales person almost immediately to ring it through because I was taking it, and the one in the store was the size I needed to I got to take it home with me right away :D

    I like #2 and #3, can't go wrong with either. I do not like #1 though!
