Wedding Bands

July 18th, 2006 @ 11:25 am by Mrs. Butterfly

I have been searching high and low for the perfect wedding band. I will be wearing my engagement ring and my wedding band on different hands. I think a lot of people do this now because their e-rings are a unique shape.

Anyway, as always, I went to Tiffany’s for fun. I found this ring, called the Jazz, and it was actually very pretty.

I don’t know if you can see it, but the diamonds are graduated in size - meaning they are larger in the center.

We found Mr. Butterfly’s wedding band months ago. Since it will be a plain platinum band, we decided to buy it at Tiffany’s. Platinum is pretty much the same price anywhere, so why not? Mr. Butterfly really liked the Lucida plain band 4.5mm - which seems to be a popular contender these days. However, this last time around, I made him try on the 6mm and I like it better. And since I like it better, that’s what he’ll get. Hahahaha. :) Seriously, it looked much better on his hand.

Since Mr. Butterfly’s ring would be a Lucida, he thought that the Lucida wedding band for me would be nice, since they will “match”.

Personally, I am not a big fan of the channel setting so I passed on this option. It is beautiful, but I’m looking for something a little more unique.

Then we went to Fortunoff to look at some more, and I found 2 rings there that I liked. Unfortunately, I cannot find pictures of them anywhere online. Do you think if I go back, they’ll let me take pictures of it on my hand? I think they may be a bit protective about that. Hmmmmm…..

If you set up a registry at Fortunoff’s (even just one item), they give you a discount on your wedding bands! 10%, I think. I was trying on earring there and the nice lady at the counter told me about it.

how funny! the 4.5 mm lucida band is the same one my fiance tried on this weekend and is the only one he really likes! he’s not a big fan of jewelry, so i was pretty surprised when he said this was “the one”…i guess tiffany’s has its way with the men too :)
