This weekend FI and I stopped by Lang Antiques in San Francisco, and I think I may have found my w-band.

I keep going back to w-bands with alternating baguettes and rounds. Does this band look odd/out of place with my e-ring?

ETA: Excuse the horribly dirty e-ring.

ETA2: The w-band is white gold (I will be ordering in platinum) so the metal looks whiter than my e-ring.

I really like it. And I LOVE Langs! What a great store to play in.
 
That is a pretty band, but with your beautiful e-ring, I'd probably choose either a band that matched the shank such as a Legacy band (or Beaudry milgrain band if your e-ring is Beaudry) or perhaps an all round bezel band like the one Musey has. I think that is a lot going on between the e-ring and w-band. But it's certainly what YOU like that matters most!
 
i think that it looks nice, but i would like to see what it would look like with an eternity band with just round diamonds. i love the way the rounds set off the small ones in your ering.
 
Thanks for the responses, everyone

I''ve contacted Pearlman''s (which is where I got my e-ring), so hopefully Bill will send me a couple of samples, one of which is the band made of all rounds.

I thought a band with all rounds would look good with this, but I haven''t yet found one that does. I''ve tried on the Tiff''s Jazz band, but it''s too wide (and that''s the small one). I''ll see if the smaller Beverly K band goes with this.

The all round band seems to get lost on my hand, because there is no contrast in shape, IYKWIM.

I''ll post more pics once I get some samples :-D.
 
I think it looks gorgeous - no, its not matchy but thats why its pretty !
I would also like to see the BK one, but I really dig this one..
 
I really like it! It''s not the obvious choice to go with your e-ring and that''s what I LOVE about it. I''m a big fan of the non-matchy look!

I like this non-matchy look a lot. The wedding band is stunning on its own, but it does look very pretty with your e-ring. I think it could make a really beautiful set. The rounds and baguette band has gorgeous proportions, which I love!
 
I really like the contrast of the round and baguettes! I''d totally do a Bev K in Rose Gold though, to match the little rose bezels in your ering! Whatever you decide will look great, I''m sure!

I agree with Geckodani that the rose Bev K band would look great and would tie in with your e-ring without being too matchy!
 
I really like the way it looks!!
 
Thank you everyone for the words of encouragement

I love that wband with your ering!
 
Oooh - geckodani had a great idea with the rose gold bezel - I think that would look just awesome with your enagement ring.
 
The band looks wonderful with your eng. ring.
 
Or the original band you posted, but with pink in the round bezels?
 
I agree with GeckoDani. The rose gold ring would look great!
 
I actually love the band you posted, but in Plat :)

For me a RG band with white diamonds, instead of pink might bother me-but would be fun to see them together!
 
I also like the band you posted in platinum.
 
I like the platinum band you have in the picture. I think it helps the pink to stand out by contrast.
 
This is an excellent combination! I like how the small rounds in the wedding band echo those in your e-ring!

Me too...I love non-matchy sets (mine is like that) but it is a tad busy. I think a Bev K ring (like my Tessa ring) would look great and mimic the bezel round you have in the setting. They will customize their settings (milgrain vs polished, diamonds vs gemstones) I am very happy with the quality of my Bev K.
 
I like this band, but I am not sure how I feel about it with your e-ring. I think that I would probably go with a thin eternity band of all rounds.
 
Tacori - hope you don''t mind me posting your Tessa Ring!
 
I love it! I think it looks romantic and pretty and the w-band stands out. I'm a big fan of non-matchy matchy though..

p.s. how did I miss your e-ring??? It's just gorgeous. Love Beaudry!

Not at all! Thanks for thinking of me. I am generally too lazy to repost my pics
