    I know this isn't the best photo, but I'm getting my "wedding band" custom made (you can read more about that here), and I'm soldering the engagement ring and bands together right before the wedding.

    But here's what I need help deciding. Do I want to add "baby" diamonds to the two white gold bands, or just leave them simple and plain and let the three diamonds speak for themselves?

    I like bling =]. I think either way will look nice, though, depending on your personal preferences. Have you tried on any ring sets that have more carats in them? you may find it doesn't suit you. Since the three stones are about the same size, a little pave styling wouldn't hurt on the winged bands, and it'll also really widen up your sparkle. I think it'd mimic the 3-stone e-ring nicely =]

    I'd say add a little more bling :) Small shared-prong stones would look beautiful!

    I actually kind of like it as is. But, if you want a little more bling go for it!

    Very nice!  I love it the way it is and wouldn't add stones - but I'm a less-is-more kind of person anyway :)

    Thanks for the feedback so far. I'm still pretty torn, but hopefully I can decide on what looks the best soon.

    @minneapolitan - I'm a less-is-more person, too. That's probably why I'm having a hard time choosing!

    normally i am a total less as more person and not all about the bling and while i like your ring as it is, i kinda think adding a few "baby" diamonds would really make it shine!

    I heart bling but at the same time am a less is more kinda person (can that be???). I am going against the general consensus and saying keep it as it is. I think it is really unique and really lets your 3 stones "shine". It almost makes it look like an estate/antique ring!
