    I'm not sure what kind of wedding band will go with my engagement ring? I'm not concerned about it sitting flush at all. Any suggestions?

    Such a GORGEOUS ring!

    My ring is different from yours, but I also have the same problem with not being able to find anything to "match"

    in the end, I'm going to get two, three, or even four TINY TINY rings, either with pave diamonds or just plain old bands, to sandwich my e ring with.  None of the beautiful "normal sized" wedding bands go with my e ring, and I'm just kind of annoyed.

     You can find "stacking" rings and get 2 or 3 you like to wear alone, or with your e ring.

    Just 1 option though!  There are many...you might want to talk to a jeweller, see what they say.

    GL!

    Let's see if this works - it's by Bailey, Banks and Biddle.  I just got a catalog in the mail from them today.  When I saw your ring I thought it would work.

    It depends on how much bling you want, but since your e-ring is already so nicely decked out, you may want to consider a plain band so as to not detract from your GORGEOUS stone!  But then again, a girl can never have too much bling!  OK, I'm no help..sorry!  =)

    Yeah I would LOVE the idea of wearing an eternity band with bezel all around but I wonder if that would be too much bling for my e-ring.

    The stacking ring idea sounds really cute if I had a solitaire e-ring. Will definitely pass that idea onto my gfs!

    As much as I'd like another ornate ring on my hand, the best bet is probably to wear a simple 1mm band. Hopefully there are some nicely decorated ones!

    I will soon be heading off to the ring store to play around with the rings. Thank you so much for the help!

    Beautiful!! I do like the Bailey Banks and Biddle ring, if it fits next to yours. Other brides have told me that they are wearing the wedding band/E-ring on their right ring finger. This is also a European custom, but basically a compromise to have both rings.

    I wear both my rings on both hands, mainly because we never got a wedding band to match my engagement ring.  I felt a matching wedding ring would take away from the uniqueness of my e-ring, so I chose to separate them.  Lately, I've been saving my e-ring for more special occasions than everyday wear.

    I have the same problem as you, no ring will sit flush on my my e-ring because of the way my e-ring is shaped, therefore after many frustrating attempts of finding something "matching" or something that would connect, I deided to say screw it and got a very delicate 1 mm band w/ seven small diamonds that I will wear with my ring, honestly it doesnt match at al, but it looks fine and is just enough bling to wear by itself when I want/need to leave my e-ring at home.

    We had the SAME issue! We didn't want to spend a lot of money having it custom made, but I like the idea of a unique wedding band. My E ring is a cushion with baguettes and princesses on the side, tapering down. My wedding bands (there are two to go with the symmetrical sandwich effect) has 7 round stones with a shared prong setting. Totally unique, doesn't sit flush, but looks very good. It's so cool to see everyone's neat ideas on not perfectly paired together rings! My friends think weird it's weird I didn't get a matching wedding band but it didn't come with one! Sorry I don't have a pic of them on my finger, those jewelers just won't let you take a pic of your rings until you've ponied up the cash!
