ring a ding ding

We got our wedding bands this weekend! It was much more painless than I anticipated it would be. For some reason, I thought it was going to be a really long process. You see, from time to time, if Jon and I would be in a mall or something, we would pop in a jewelry store just to see what they had to offer. I always left a little dejected because the channels didn't match up or my engagement ring paired with the band looked too big for my finger or the salesperson would tell me I should leave at least 6 weeks to be able to get the ring sized, etc. I should have known the original jewelry store where Jon got the ring would have a perfect match. And they did! I still had a couple decisions to make though. My ring is a round stone with 3 channel set princess cut side stones on each side. A channel set princess cut band would technically match it, but I was loving the round one! After wearing them both and staring at them both, I decided on the round band and I am so glad. I love how it looks together and alone. Jon opted for a titanium beveled edge band. Here they are...



...and the set

Beauti-licious! After I picked out my engagement ring, I realized there was no way I could have a wedding ring with diamonds because of it's specific shape. I had to go with a shadow band that basically hugs my engagment ring. No diamonds. When I see rings like yours I get a bit jealous :-( But good for you...they are beautiful!!

I love the set! Mine doesn't match 'perfectly' either and I love the eclectic look! Great choice.

Erin - I think we have very classic rings...worn by many and will never go out of style - kind of like a crisp white button down shirt. Definitely, good taste :)

Andrea - that is so funny you said that because I was considering getting a plain band! I thought my e-ring would stand out and I was worried about having a really thick ring on my tiny fingers. I obviously changed my mind though and love what I have now though.

Very beautiful! I wish my wedding ring fit my finger, but no dice yet since the baby was born.
