while back, I posted about my disappointment with the wedding band our jeweler created. I sent it back and ordered a different (less intricate) one. And after almost a month of back and forth emails and waiting, I got the new one in the mail tonight! It’s a prong-set eternity band. The previous one was more antique-y looking with bead-set milgraining and engraving on the side. This one is a lot simpler, and less vintage looking–and can’t be messed up by the jeweler!
And this is Mr. P’s sleek and tidy little wedding band of palladium. I love his. It has good heft and shine. He got it a while ago with no complaints or fuss. The best part is that it has our wedding date engraved in it. However with mine, because of the holes cut out behind each diamond culet, I couldn’t get engraving.
Here it is with the e-ring. Mr. P thinks it’s too flashy, and it’s not exactly the understated look that I was hoping for. However, I think it will grow on me!
Did you choose a wedding ring style you originally thought you wouldn’t like?
Oh, they look gorgeous together! I think Mr. Perfume is just jealous! 
Lovely!!! I think it’s a great combination together, plenty of sparkle 
I like the simplicity of Mr P’s ring! and love your sparkly wedding band. Your ring combo is beautiful!
Wow, gorgeous rings!! I had always thought I’d go with a solid metal band, but when I found a diamond & saphire eternity band (on 80% discount, hello!! it was easy to change my mind.
How will your engagement ring and wedding band sit together? Does the diamond on the engagement ring overlap the wedding band?
I love your band! And the nice thing is it will look just fab by itself if you ever don’t feel like wearing your e-ring. Stunning!
Thanks, ladies!
@cfitz621: Good question. Yes, it sits under the e-ring, so the stone on the e-ring overlaps the band a little. However–the band is a little thicker than the e-ring, so it doesn’t look that great together when worn!!! So I think I’ll wear the e-ring on my right hand.
SO SPARKLY! I absolutely LOVE your ering and that wedding band ain’t too shabby
I think we have identical wedding rings:) Yours is beautiful!! I don’t know if I ever told you how much I like your engagement ring, too!
I think it’s beautiful together! I have to say, though, I’m still a little partial to the other ring because of the vintage look.
They’re both gorgeous! I wonder how common it is to wear the e-ring on the right hand with the wedding band on the left? I might have to go that route as well, because I can’t find a wedding band to match my e-ring.
Umm, I am in love with your wedding band. Your e-ring is gorgeous too! I’ll probably wear my wedding and e-ring separately too, but I was thinking the wedding band would go on the right hand.
Beautiful!! I’m just trying to figure out the whole wedding band thing — I always wanted my e-ring and my band to fit flush, but my solitaire platinum e-ring is hard to match. I found one ring guard that i liked at Kay’s, of all places, but they only had it white gold. I made the trek to a few other wedding places and spent a long time talking to a guy who tried to tell me it made more sense to either a) reset my e-ring, b) wear it on my right hand, because i really will only be wearing my wedding ring for the next zillion years, not the e-ring. But my mom’s always worn her e-ring… so. Anyway, sorry to blather on!
not wedding ring but engagement ring. i liked the antique settings but thought it was for someone else. needless to say after trying one on i was sold.
Pretty! How wide is your eternity band? I am contemplating one too!
Yes I’m biased but I loooove eternity rings. It’s beautiful and classic.

Only not as..."talented". More realistically, I'm a foodie who can't bake; a dancer and dilettente; an art collector with a penchant for the whimsical and subversive. I live in the city and adore the country, but not much in between. I like smart design, great craftmanship and good value. Most of all, I love the new vintage aesthetic: classic, sweet, delicate, bespoke. If I had to do it all over again, I'd go for a culinary arts degree rather than a PhD; but wouldn't trade Mr. P for the world.
