Help! What wedding band would fit with my engagement ring?

ti, on June 8, 2022 at 10:12 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 39

My engagement ring is a pear cut and doesn't sit well with straight bands! I tried ordering a straight band in a similar style (the second image!) and it sits really far from my e ring


I've looked at wishbone bands but the 'V' seems really big and I think it might look weird with my e ring? Would really love some input about shapes/styles or what people think might look good! Smiley heart

    Your engagement rings is gorgeous! 😍 I’m not sure which would be best as I didn’t even know the band was supposed to go with the engagement ring - this whole time I thought it was a different ring. 😆 I do like the band you posted, I think it’s super cute. I’d recommend trying it on with your engagement ring to see how it looks. I wish you the best of luck!

    Thanks love 🥰

    This is all very new to me too - but I don't think your wedding band has to 'go' or 'match' with your engagement ring, its just my personal preference

    I have the pictured wedding band already at home, will update with a picture of them together when I get back. It honestly sits miles apart 😧 gutted honestly!

    I had something simple made to fit to my engagement ring. Not the best pictures sorry.

    Ohhh, that is so clever - and oddly satisfying!

    Unfortunately we are doing this on a shoe string budget (wild last decision to get married the same year as getting engaged.. and we'd just had our windows and floors done in the new house!) so I imagine getting something bespoke is out of budget for me Smiley sad

    Well first of all let me tell you that pear rings are the hardest to fit especially if they sit up high trust me I’ve been through about four bands trying to find the right one for my pear and finally found one days before the wedding. When I see your ring for whatever reason I thought of a nice eternity band with round diamonds?

    I'd say to go look around at stores just to see what kinds of things jewelers recommend and what you like. Everything looks great in zoomed-in pictures on the internet, but they may look different in person. Once you have a few ideas in mind, a local jeweler may be able to do something custom for less than the chain stores you see at malls.

    Unrelated, but I LOVE your manicure! That's my favorite color, and it looks great with your ring!

    My ring is oval, and very similar to the bottom of your wring.

    I got this band off etsy and it's perfect https://www.etsy.com/listing/925157938/14k-white-gold-enhancer-band-diamond?ref=yr_purchases

    I'm sure you're right - I just get a bit nervous about sales people being a bit pushy in store!

    I do my manis myself so thank you so much 🥰💅 this was my first matchy matchy set after he proposed. The colour match was pretty close! 😂

    That is such a pretty band. I have been married a few years and there wasn’t bands available like that. Wish there were.

    Thank you!

    I could have paid 1k for a custom band from the same company that made my engagement ring, but money's tight so I ordered this cause worse case scenario I was out $35, but it ended up working perfectly!

    This is how it sets with a straight band, for me that’s too much of a gap 😩

    Ohh I love this actually, the round shape is much more gentle than the wishbone style


    My only concern about getting a shaped ring is it looking weird on the big day without my engagement ring 😱

    I can definitely see that I might end up going through a few different bands before landing on the right thing. I hadn’t anticipated this! Mind you, I love the pear shape so not sure I would have instructed him to avoid it even with this knowledge 😅

    Pears are everything. And just for comfort I went through several until days before the wedding and then just splurged for the dream band I’ve always coveted. After that my ring search ended promptly. Have fun in this journey. I will say the band should really showcase the Pear prominently. You can have so much fun in this.

    Totally hear you! I'm planning on still wearing my enagegemnt ring when i walk down the aisle, and thankfully this band will fit either way on my engagement ring, but I can see that being difficult for your ring.

    For what it's worth, no one will really see it without your engagement ring! You'll put it on at the ceremony then can slip your engagement ring right back on before pictures! and if you're planning on wearing your engagement ring down the aisle, you could always just wear it upside down until the end of the ceremony!
