    Hello everyone!  I got engaged a month ago (yay!) and am very excited!!  I have been surfing around this site for the last few weeks and have loved all your posts, etc.  I wanted to say hello and get your opinion on a small matter.  It's probably a little to early to think about this, but I have been struggling to figure out what sort of wedding band will go with my engagement ring.  I love my e-ring and it fits me very well.  It is a princess cut solitaire with a thin 2 mm band.  My fiancee picked out the perfect ring for me as the quality is great and it sparkles so much.   I can't stop looking at it!   He apologizes for the size, but I think it's perfect.  And, it also means the world to me because he picked it out himself with my style and future profession in mind :-).  But I wanted to get your opinion on what sort of wedding band I can get along with it?  I don't want to overwhelm the diamond at all, but I also can't decide if I want a plain band or a diamond band.  If you have any pictures or any opinions, they would be very much appreciated.  Thanks so much everyone in advance!!!  It's very exciting to be here with all of you :-).

     

    P.S.  I also apologize for the picture, it is not the most flattering picture of my fingers, hehe.

    CONGRATULATIONS!! Since your ring is a soliate you have a lot of options! A plain band, pave band, channel set. I think the best thing to do is go to the store and try them on. Its hard to know what you like until you see how they look together. The bands I thought I wanted did not look good with my ring. Have fun trying on a variety of bands, theres no harm in shopping around!

    Well, do you like alot of bling? I think a thinner diamond band wouldn't overwhelm it, but if you want something subtle, you could get a plain band or even one like this:

    yeah! try them on. If a regualr band would fit mine, I would get one with colored stones.

    And, please, don't apoligize because it's "not the biggest diamond in the world."

    It's very nice! Everyone has different size rings. Please don't get caught up in that!

    I love your ring.
