    @Happy Hopeful Bee:  Thank you! I love the look of floral bands as well but I think he knows that I am quite picky about symmetry and chose a band that fits perfectly under my ering. My Fiance chose a dark grey tungsten and a black ceramic. I decided to get him the tungsten. The black one didn’t look “wedding band-ish” I thought it looked more like casual jewelry. Plus I thought the dark grey would look best with my white gold band 🙂

    @wontonsoup:  Thank you! I’m glad to hear someone else say they like it. We originally bought two bands so I could wear one on each side, but after thinking about it and trying the rings on several times I felt like having the two bands really took away from my center stone so we returned one of the bands.

    My ring was made with the band, so I didn’t get to pick one out.  The e-ring fits inside the wedding band- the wedding band is not meant to be a ring on it’s own!

    ETA- I told him I wanted a ring set that was intertwined and showed him the inspiration picture for my ring, so it’s not like I had no say whatsoever…

    @Audrey2_sings:  Love your set!! I love the symbolism of the rings intertwining. Do you have a picture of them separately? I can’t figure out which is which lol.

    @pineapplez17:  Thank you! That’s exactly what I was going for: complimentary but not exactly matching.

    @CarolinaCola:  that’s what I wanted too. I wanted the wedding band to go with my e-ring, but still stand out as it’s own ring.

    We picked my wedding band together. I wanted a vintage gold and diamond band and it was lovely to go looking together. I also picked my eternity ring (which I got for Christmas) with him. For us this was absolutely the right thing to do because he wanted me to have the perfect ring each time and was much more confident about me choosing them!

    @wontonsoup:  I would love to but unfortunately I only have my engagement ring at the moment as we are paying off our bands each month, sorry 🙁 when I go to the jeweller next I will get a photo. Here is my engagement ring, my band is the same thickness and just plain gold.
