    I'm becoming more and more fond of wedding sets that aren't at all sets, that are mismatched but compliment each other quite nicel (i.e. Miss Stripes). So, I wanna see what you ladies have out there!!!!!

    I love the mismatched sets, especially the mixed metals! Mine is going to be more on the matchy-matchy side, but I'll have to wait until it's done (soon)...I'm dying!

    Wedding bands are round gold and the engagement ring is princess/baguette/cushion.

    My rings are both tacori but my engagement ring is an engraved solitare setting and my wedding band is small pave diamonds.  I really hated the look  of the matching engraved band (see bottom picture).  It hid the cool profile details and did nothing for the beautiful diamond.  There maybe a little gap but I kinda like it.

    Sorry for the crappy cell phone pic.... platinum e-ring, plain white gold wedding band. I'm surprised I picked a simple band, but I wanted it to be able to be worn alone as well as in the set

    Miss Chirpie, where did you get your rose gold band?

     

    I am doing stacked bands for my whole set. My e ring is a 2.5 carat eternity ring. My wedding band is a thin 1 carat eternity ring.  I am also getting a rose gold band and a channel set eternity ring and will mix and match everything.

    Rose gold band (one of the ones I am looking at)

    Cakegal OMG I LOVE your rings!! That looks SO good. I also love that Tiffany band! Wow I can't wait to see it all together -- I think a stacked set like that is so classy yet unique and original! Did you ask for an eternity e-ring or was your FI just cool enough to think of that all on his own??

    Thanks! Luckily my fiance was cool enough to know I would want to pick it out myself. I think he was thinking of a solitaire, but he loves what I chose-he likes to pretend he picked it out.

    I will wear the rose gold band to work-I am a chef and need something plain there.

    I was going to get an asscher eternity ring, but they really rubbed me and were uncomfortable. I really had to look to find a "low profile" eternity ring and I love mine because it is so unique for an eternity ring.

    i love those of you that have mixed metal colors. I chose my wedding band because I wanted it to be stackable so that I can get a gold band and/or rose someday (anniversaries, births...). Also wanted it to be a great stand alone.

    None of our rings will match but they'll coordinate-we ~loved~ the design on my engagement ring and when we found his wedding band we knew it was meant to be!

    @CCSR: Love yours :)  I like the simple band with the diamond band.

    I just got mine yesterday. I have a diamond band with my engagement ring so I went with plain for the wedding band. People look at me like I'm crazy when I tell them I turned down a diamond band. (We actually bought it and returned it.)

    But I LOVE it :) (Sorry pic isn't great it's from my phone)

    i love all the inspiration. i would love to do something mixed metal but probably am not brave enough. i have a princess cut solitare and right now i am leaning towards something like @JennyChicago has for wedding bands. Ultimately i want something that would be pretty to wear alone because a lot of people find it distasteful to wear anything remotely flashy in my field of work. keep the great ideas coming!

    I am seriously loving these mismatched bands!  I had been leaning towards getting a non matchy band, but looking at this thread sealed it.  I'm currently obsessed with bands and have been trying on my married friends bands to see what i like :)

    I think we are getting our bands in September, I'll post as soon as we do!

    The engagement ring and band came from two different jewelers but I think they look amazing. I love that the band is thin so I can wear it during clinicals and still have some bling :)
