Options for new Wedding Band & Engagement Ring Setting; HELP

[babycurls841]

If you read my first post you know I'm in the market for a new wedding band that better compliments my engagement diamond and perhaps a new setting for my engagement diamond as well. I went to my jewelers yesterday and overall I was disappointed I didn't find more options that I liked. I've been considering the Halo setting for my e-ring but they all look so similar and as mentioned in my first post my sister in law has a halo setting (I fear our rings would look very similar if I halo'd mine). I did find two bands that I like. One has individual diamond like shape bezeled diamonds (eternity) and I like the way this one looked with my current e-setting. My favorite wedding band though, is the rounded diamond eternity band-and for this I feel I definitely need to reset my e-ring. I tried on a new band for my e-ring that I think I like with the wedding band; however I'm concerned it might be too big (thick) for my 1.2ct engagement diamond. What do you think?

Sorry if I rambled! I'm anxious about making the right choice and finding something I will LOVE so I don't feel the urge to change it up again 6months later. I'm looking for something classic and elegant with a twist (that makes it me).

I can't wait to hear your thoughts!

Love both options. However, both won't make your center stone look bigger which was your goal right?
Have you looked through the halo options on www.gabrielengaged.com to see an idea of different styles not available at local stores?

Why font you try a halo with a split shank. That looks really different than a single shank so hopefully
it won't look like your SILs. Gaberial has lots of nice ones!

I like either of the new bands with your current ring; no I do not think the band is too thick. I do think your ER will look bigger/better b/c it's too hidden with your current blingy band. I am not a huge fan of halos. Can you take some better picture of your current ring with each band?
