Hi all,

I'm looking for some advice on wedding bands.. everyone here has been so helpful, so I'm hoping a few of you wouldn't mind giving me some suggestions. I currently have a 1.5 ct H SI1 platinum solitaire from Blue Nile and am looking for a diamond wedding band that is 50-80% eternity, also platinum, ideally no wider than 2mm, 1/3-1/2 tcw. I've tried on a few ring styles, and have narrowed it down to the pave look because for some reason, my personal preference is when diamonds look a bit more square on the band, versus shared prong where they appear round.

This is the 1/2 tcw 1/2 eternity from BN. It felt a little bulky for my ring, and I didn't like how the diamonds looked round.

This is the 1/3 tcw 1/2 pave eternity from BN. It's nice, but the diamonds are pretty small.. I wish they were a smidge larger (I know, so picky)

This is the look I'm going for (not my ring)


I'm considering the Brian Gavin Legera but there are very few pics of it online, and no hand shots. My only concern with it is whether or not the beads on each stone would stick up and be uncomfortable on the sides of my fingers. (The 1/3 BN ring is pretty comfortable to wear)

Please let me know if you have any thoughts or suggestions for bands that would achieve the look I'm going for! Thanks in advance :)

I'd like the quality of the BG band, so I think I'd email and ask them if they have any other photos of that ring made up...perhaps hand shots.
 
I like the look of the 2nd ring better than the first but I would go with BGD for the quality.
 
I have a WF 2.3 ct uprong and I have no comfort problems. I found the prices on Blue Nice for eternity bands to be way higher than any of the regular recommended vendors. All the bands you posted look gorgeous with the solitaire.
