Hi Bees,
So I posted a while ago about finding what I thought would be my future wedding bands. Unfortunately, the chain store we bought from made us a bunch of false promises about being able to customize the bands with matching filligree and fitting them tighter to my ring to reduce gaps. They lead us on for a good two months before I finally pulled the plug and demanding a refund. We ended up going to the same place that designed my e-ring from scratch (which unfortunately was drastically more expensive) but I got exactly what I wanted!
I’ve included a comparison of the chain store version (top pic) and my custom wedding bands. The rest are of my future wedding set in all its glory ๐

@FutureDrAtkins: thank you! Yes, the craftsmanship is fantastic. It is entirely hand engraved and every single side of the set has engraving. I’m borderline OCD and I amazingly have no complaints or issues with the rings ! So happy ๐

@blushbliss: gorgeous set! so much better than the chain version! My band looks very similar to yours, just without all the engraving (it does have milgrain, though). I’m thinking of getting a second band sometime down the road, so your set gives me a good visual!

Wow! That looks amazing! Probably the most compelling thread I’ve ever seen for getting a custom band.

@pineapplez17: my set was designed from one that came with one curved band and I knew I would obsess over the lack of symmetry so we opted for a wrap now (for FI’s sanity haha). I haven’t seen your ring with a band yet, care to share?
@mg1363: thank you! I am so glad I went custom.

I love it! And I like that it is more round than pointy.
