Hi all,
I'm a longtime lurker and first time poster. Thanks to all for the hours of entertainment! I'd like to run a few alternatives to the traditional engagement ring by you (I told my boyfriend not to get me a rock cause I know he doesn't have the money to spend). Here are the options I'm considering:
- Asking him for a slim platinum micropave band as an e-ring and pairing it with a slim yellow/rose gold wedding band. (Would those two make a good-looking stack? Here's my inspiration, though Gisele's WB is thicker than I'd prefer: http://img.purseforum.com/attachmen...d1240471480-celebrity-engagement-rings-01.jpg)
- No engagement ring; waiting for a channel set wedding band. I am picturing an eternity band with vertical baguettes set in yellow/rose gold. (Inspiration: http://coloreddiamond.info/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=781.0;attach=17429;image. Got to love that trinity ring as well.)
- Wearing my great-grandmother's platinum filigree e-ring; wearing it on my right hand after getting channel set wedding band.
The main question is, is a channel set wedding band impractical if I want to wear it everyday, all the time? Would I be better off getting the channel set as an anniversary band and having the option of taking it on or off. I don't want to have to take my wedding band off when I shower, moisturize, cook, etc.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts!!
